Complete Guide to Executive Job Search
Ranked #24,299 in Business & Work, #408,562 overall
Would you try to sell a new product by just running a few ads and sitting back waiting for the phone to ring? How about posting your ad online? Or mailing a brochure to millions of potential buyers?
None of those would be very effective marketing techniques for a new product and they're just as ineffective for job search. Yet that's how your competition is looking for a job. They're designing ineffective advertisements, posting them online and waiting for interviewers to call. Which gives you a HUGE opportunity.
So stop applying for a job and start marketing.
