Job Search Tools Workshop Was So Much FUN - CareerEnlightenment.com

Solve the issue of your likeability, reduce their sense of risk = stand out from the crowd.Easy. Right?Well, not really. And the reason is that you need to know as much as possible about the companys culture, problems, strengths, recent wins, CRM issues, big customers etc. And guess who wants to brag about all of this?New Hires: because they may just be so proud of their new jobs that they are just bursting at the seams to talk to someone who isnt at their level yet.Ex-employees: because there is no more pretense. Just an open kimono. They will tell you the truth about every little skeleton in the closet. If you can still stand your target company after that conversation, you will be WAY more convincing during an interview.Remember, info-interview to get information about your fit before you begin asking for job-interviews. Youll be glad you did!What do you think? Do you have a story about when you might have benefited from some info-interviews first?
