Your Worst Fears Confirmed: It IS Who You Know

Your Worst Fears Confirmed: It IS Who You Know

What would you say is the most frustrating aspect of a job
search? Is it making it all the way through the second round
of interviews, and then getting no offers? Or maybe it’s
sending out dozens of resumes, only to get no response...

At this point, you might be thinking, “if only I could be so lucky
– I’m having trouble even finding dozens of jobs to apply for!”

Well, once you’ve figured out what job you want (that’s Step #1),
the next step is to find it. And if you’re having trouble here, you
are almost certainly not making use of who you know.

Step #2: Find The Job You Want (Through Who You Know)

Ok, the good news is that you already do know more people than
you think. And, you can get to know new people really quickly
(probably faster than you thought).

I’m about to share how you can do that, and how you can do it FAST.

Job Leads In Two Minutes Flat

Make a list of the 5 most connected peopleyou know. Find their phone
numbers. (1 minute)

Call each of them, tell them what type ofposition you’re looking for
(again, you have to get Step #1 done first), and ask each of them who
they would recommend you talkwith. (1 minute or less)

Call their referrals. Let them know who gaveyou their number, then ask
the samequestion of them. (at two minutes, you’re talking to a new
connection!)

Think it can't be that easy? It can! Go forth and network your way to
those interviews!
