Get in the Back Door for an Interview


Date: Thursday, January 4th

Time: 3:00 pm EST (12:00 pm PST, 1:00 pm MST, 2:00 pm CST)

Description: Are you frustrated when you submit your resume or CV online in response to a job board ad or website posting and never hear back?  Are you concerned that your resume or CV gets lost in the shuffle of hundreds of resumes and CVs?   Are you tired of being ignored?  If you answered “YES” to any of those questions, this training was written for you.

Submitting your resume or CV online is where you will experience the highest level of competition and lowest rate of return on your investment of time.  You need to access the “back door” to increase your chance of scheduling an interview.  Tips I will share during this webinar include:
  • How to obtain introductions to hiring managers.
  • Steps to become an employee referral.
  • Tips to market yourself directly to targeted companies.
  • The options of working temp or contract.

The lines will be opened to address your questions, following the training presentation.
