We’re a Canadian Company

We are a B.C based company with the realization that

employers and employees have not always been able

to connect. The old fashioned paper print with an on-

line component increases the ability for a connection to

occur. Great jobs and employees are out there. We just

felt this to be another avenue for both to capitalize and

create a long lasting relationship.

Best Ways To Get An InterviewKnowing that you are likely one of many applicants, how do you get “noticed”? There are a few steps that you can follow to greatly increase your odds of landing that interview.Breaking down my favorites, David Letterman style, here are my top 10 ways to get an interview:

10. BE SPECIFICDevelop a list of specific target companies that you can identify to those with whom you are networking. For example, if you say, “I want to work in engineering,” that doesn’t really get my brain working. However, if you say, ” I want to work for XYZ company in an engineering capacity, namely leading a team of hardware engineers,” that helps me to a) understand what you are looking for and b) start thinking about who I may know at XYZ company.

9. KNOW YOUR STRENGTHSKnowing what you bring to the table and clearly articulating it sets you apart from the masses right away. Often, people are not clear on what they can do to specifically help a company. Hiring companies want to know what you can do for them… it helps to answer that question well.

8. RESEARCH YOUR TARGET COMPANIESKnow those companies that appeal to you and appear to be a great fit. If you don’t know about the company or if you don’t really want to work there, it typically shows in a conversation. If you are excited about the potential of working for the company and you have clearly done your research that will make you extremely appealing and different from the rest.

7. DEVELOP A RESUME THAT STANDS OUT FROM THE RESTI have seen great resumes and terrible resumes.What makes a great resume? Clearly defining what problems you will solve for the company and adjusting the resume based on the job available are two important factors.

6. DEVELOP MARKETING MATERIALWhat can you leave with a new contact that sets you apart from the other people they have talked with? Professional business cards are a must but what about a biographic? This doesn’t replace a resume but is rather a marketing piece that visually tells the story of your job history.

5. DON’T BE AFRAID TO CALL THE HIRING MANAGERBe assertive. If you know who the hiring manager is, call him/her and briefly state that you have applied for the posi-tion. Take the opportunity to alert them to this and let them know that if they took ten minutes to meet with you, they would find you a viable candidate. The worst thing that can happen is that you get turned down.

4. DON’T RELY ON JOB BOARDSNot that you cannot find a job utilizing a job board but statistics show that 90% of jobs are never posted (which is why #2 is what it is) and those that are posted are swamped with job seekers taking the traditional, ineffective route.

3. CREATE YOUR BRAND UTILIZING SOCIAL MEDIADevelop your brand as an industry expert using LinkedIn and, if you’re brave, Twitter. Post professional, relevant ar-ticles that are pertinent to the type of jobs in which you are interested.

2. NETWORKI can’t say this strongly enough. The best way to make it to the top of the resume pile is to network. Your goal is to have someone hand the resume to the appropriate person and say, “I think we need to look at this person.”

1. FOLLOW UPNetworking and all the other steps are worthless without following up. Be persistent without being obnoxious. Ask your contact how best he/she likes to be communicated with and how often. Respect that they have their own priorities but don’t give up if they don’t respond immediately.
