I don’t usually do this, but Jim Stroud’s content was so good that I had to share it with you. His video on how to find jobs that aren’t advertised is a detailed guide on:
- how employers are searching for resumes online today
- how you can take advantage of that
- how to use google to automate your searching across different job boards
- how to anticipate that a company is going to be hiring, and network your way in to create the job description
- how to develop yourself as a subject authority online without needing your own blog, and create full or part time work that way.
The big deal here is not only are you finding and creating roles that others aren’t applying in huge crowds for, but you’re also not tying up hours and hours every day in your job search. By learning a little about google, and automating your search, you can have it do the work and send only the ‘best fit’ opportunities to your email inbox every day. I like that!!
I learned lots of new-to-me things, especially on the google side, and would like to share them with you. Jim has more to offer in other videos, so check them out. Remember, finding work is a full time job in of itself! If you’re simply looking in the newspaper for jobs, you’re competing with too many other people, and missing out on the vast majority of opportunities out there. You must step out of your comfort zone to succeed! Yes, this is a half-hour video, but if you’re not interested in spending the time to educate yourself to be more effective, do you really deserve to get handed that great job?
