Are Your Job Search Advisors Blowing Smoke?

By:


Job search advisors . . . theyre the one thing you can count on when youre looking for a job. They seem to come out of the woodwork with recommendations on how to conduct your job campaign. But could they be blowing smoke?

Most of the time the advice you get, even from professionals, is way off course. Thats because its usually a rehash of old fashioned job search ideas totally out of tune with whats happening in the sophisticated 21st Century job marketplace.

For example, Ill bet the first piece of advice you get is what to do with your resume. Everyone seems to focus on the value of having an award-winning resume that touts your work history and other credentials. I call that advice blowing smoke.

Or other job search advisors will recommend companies where you should apply for a job. Or theyll refer you to advertised job openings that could be right for you. I call this blowing smoke.

Still other job search advisors will tell you their secrets for conducting an interview . . . how to dodge the tough questions . . . how to upstage the interviewer and take control . . . how to be a tough negotiator, etc. Blowing smoke!

Why am I so critical of traditional job search recommendations and advice? Well, first of all, it has nothing to do with the good intentions of your advisors. Theyre doing their best to be helpful. The problem is theyre disseminating misinformation. Theyre advising you about strategies that are out of sync with whats really going on in todays job marketplace.

Just take your resume, for instance. In todays marketplace it counts for very little. First of all, employers arent going to hire you on the basis of what you did for someone else. They want to know how youre going address company issues going forward. You cant do that in a resume.

The, theres the misinformation about interviewing. If you think youre going to capture an employers attention and beat out the competition by answering all his/her questions accurately and jumping through all the hoops with ease . . . or negotiating by making sure you get your demands are on the table right upfront . . . well, you already lost before you even got started!
