I had an exciting breakthrough today with a client. I’m talking about a mental breakthrough that will completely change the way this person approaches the job search as well as the fun and success that comes with it!
My client had the job search light bulb come on. When that happened, I could hear the confidence in the voice and feel the motivation in the air! I could not see the confidence in the eyes because my client is located in South Carolina, and we were talking on the phone, but I’m positive the eyes showed the confidence too.
This client is a $100K+ person. My client came to fully understand that the resume, the networking, the interview – all the pieces of the job search – would not bring a job offer at the pay he deserves unless all the pieces work together as one.
AND, my client now embraces using the Internet to pull networking and interview opportunities his way instead of him hunting through job postings, finding things that are below his abilities, and struggling to make good networking connections. What a concept!!
The message of the story is that “You’re Worth More”, as long as you do the job search the right way. Does that make sense? Let me explain.
If you do the job search wrong, then three things happen…. 1) You don’t get the chance to show hiring managers what you are worth…. That leads to… 2) You start losing confidence in your ability and start thinking that you aren’t worth anything to an employer, and this starts spilling over into your self-esteem… This leads to… 3) Just taking a job that you don’t really want at a pay less than you are qualified to get.
”You’re Worth More”. It’s not just about the resume, or the networking, or the interviewing – it’s about the whole job search working together, leveraging the power of the Internet to reach people, and then showing them what you are worth to them. Make the job search light bulb come on for you just like it did for my client.
I would be happy to explain this simple 4 step process to any jobseeker. It is a proprietary system I’ve developed that builds confidence while moving people through the job search smarter and faster, with more fun. Click on the “Contact Us” link above for contact information.
