Office 2007 Pro Plus Key blog make-that-cold-call-

Heather wrote a great small ditty yesterday about getting ready yourself for the upswing within the occupation marketplace. That;s right … word on the recruiting street is that the market will soon be turning around,Office 2007 Product Key, and while jobs may not be as abundant as they were four or five years ago, the economic shutdown we;ve seen will be dwindling. I think it also help that companies have matured in their budgeting and spending over the last few years and can now responsibility enter into a new hiring age without finding too over zealous. In a few of her points, Heather encourages task seekers to begin forging relationships with recruiters. You never know what relationships may benefit you within the future. I;ve seen the good blogger debates (both internal to Microsoft and external) about how blogging might affect future profession opportunities. A lot of people worry (or hope) that exposing their function details and contact information to the public will encourage other companies to poach them, and I;ve often said that blogs.msdn.com would be my dream recruiting tool … if only I didn;t already work at Microsoft. I;ve also seen many a blogger complain about recruiting cold calls. The recruiter finds a blog and then e-mails or calls the unsuspecting blogger with a “terrific, new opportunity!” I;ve been holding this thought for a while … but now I;m just going to say it … Stop whining! Take it as a compliment and a sign you have a successful and desirable career. And then use it to your advantage!! If you are really so bothered by recruiter inquiries, delete the e-mails and voicemails. However, going back to Heather;s advice, I;d suggest using these opportunities to improve your network. Why not politely reply back and explain why you aren;t interested? The recruiter may have a career of more interest or operate with company more applicable to your skills within the future – and then you have a fantastic contact. Better yet,Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007, maybe you have a friend or co-worker who is looking for this a new job. Forward the recruiter;s contact on to that person. Often when a recruiter cold calls, he;s just trying to build his network out, not necessarily recruit you (sorry, but it;s true.) The more people he contacts, the more people who know him and can potentially circulate his name. And this scenario can work both ways. I know a lot of people dream of starting their own companies or moving on to something bigger and better. It never hurts to make contacts for your own potential hiring needs. Today,Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007, I heard the story of a corporate recruiter who recruited an executive candidate. The executive candidate interviewed with the corporate recruiter;s company,Microsoft Office 2007 Standard, and while he decided not to take the career, the exec remembered the remarkable experience he had with the recruiter. Later, when the exec took a big position with another big company, he was tasked with solving a big recruiting issue … and who did he go to? That same corporate recruiter who had helped him inside the past. In the end,Office 2007 Pro Plus Key, the exec recruited the recruiter. The recruiter got a great new employment (with an excellent new salary), and the exec efficiently utilized his network to fill a gap in his new venture. Fact or fiction? Probably a small of both – but the point is building your own network for profession seeking or career enhancement purposes is never a bad idea. If the past few years have taught us anything, it;s that the position market is a harsh mistress and what goes up must come down, even if we think we;re above it all. gretchen
