YOUR JOB SEARCH WORRIES COULD BE OVER!
Posted by : Optîmance
New companies help you find the best posted jobs for you. The latest service to be offered to job seekers has just taken another huge step forward. A second company has opened in Dallas that will do the web searching for your job for you. But there is a fee! How does it work? Well, you go through the online entry of the ideal job criteria and your job profile is then reviewed by the researchers. In the case of RiseSmart, the latest company to launch the service, the researchers are in India. JobSerf, the other company in Dallas, provides for the outsourcing of the ‘heavy lifting’ of a Job Search – the searching for and applying to positions online. In due course, you will be provided with information on the jobs that match your criteria, and off you go. Well, not quite! First you have to apply, get an interview and then win the job.
And what about all those private companies that never advertise for jobs? We’ll forget them. And the companies that look to people they know and network with former colleagues to find that perfect fit. Well forget them.
But if you do not have the time to search for your own job, this may be the answer for you. It all comes down to the economics, Your Time, Your Money, Your Job, in some sort of equation or other. Perhaps “Your Networking” should also be factored in somewhere. Would you use the service? Let us know. We feel that no stone should be left unturned in job search. Is this a stone you would turn over?
Bob Hueglin of The Hueglin Group had this response. Would you use this service or do you have a comment?
Well this kind of comes under the heading of “A Fool and His Money Are Soon Parted!” If all you are is an assortment of skills, it just might work. Maybe in the high tech arena where you either have the skill or you don’t it might work. However if the intangibles like personality or fit are important … you just don’t find it on the internet. These services sound like a job search version of E-Harmony.com …pretty hard to pick up on the chemistry of a job posting.
The career transition business is filled with horror stories of getting lost in Cyber Space … filling out job applications or sending off resumes only never to hear from the company or the headhunter again. It smacks of going on a blind date and waiting by the door for the fateful knock that never comes.
Hard to imagine that this service would ever work for C-Level Execs. (Now this is probably a great service for “SHY” folks who have a history of getting fixed up by their mother or sister and just sort of take whatever they are given! These folks are looking for a short-cut and don’t want to or can’t do the heavy lifting of going out and getting a job. Unfortunately these are not “difference makers” or “game changing” professionals. When they hear somebody say, “Either lead, follow or get out of the way…” they dutifully get out of the way and go to the back of the line. In short America was not built by people like this and if it were we would never have expanded beyond the thirteen original colonies, there would have been no American Revolution and certainly no Civil War and we would be singing God Save the King and not the Star Spangled Banner!!!.
These sites may be a way to start and locate jobs and from there one is going to have to do some old fashion networking to figure out who do I know who might lead me to an insider. Most people are so much better than their resume, so just clicking and posting is doing them a dis-service.
