Sounds like a good way to crack the employment nut and guarantee that you&#8217;ll be happy with your chosen profession, doesn&#8217;t it? After all, you&#8217;ve probably been brought up to believe that you can do whatever you want. That&#8217;s the American way.

It&#8217;s as simple as that.
And here are three &#8220;guerrilla&#8221; ways to do it .
Tactic #1: Create a Competitive Analysis
You can make a huge impact on employers by analyzing one or more of their competitors and then sending your findings to them by Priority Mail &#8212; not email.
People assume that all companies keep up to date on their competitors, but this is rarely the case. Wrong. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What separates successful job seekers from those who struggle to get hired?
Two things: clarity and motivation.
You must be clear about the job you seek, the results you&#8217;ve produced before, and the employers you want to work for.
And you need motivation to persist through long hours of research, networking, false hopes, and follow-up that may lie between you and your next job.
Want to know an easy, effective way to get more clarity and motivation in your job search?
It&#8217;s as easy as taking pen to paper.
In fact, that&#8217;s what it is: taking ...]]></description>

How did they do it?
By using Guerrilla Resumes (explained below), LinkedIn, and smart networking, among other tactics.

Do either of these apply to you?
Frustration #1: There just aren&#8217;t enough jobs out there to apply for.
Solution: Let&#8217;s analyze this one &#8230;
When I speak to job hunters, in seminars, by phone, or via email, I ask the same question: &#8220;How are you looking for jobs?&#8221; Almost invariably, the answer is: &#8220;I look online or in the paper.&#8221;
So the actual frustration here is this: There aren&#8217;t enough advertised jobs ...]]></description>

Ferrazzi vividly describes how his father enabled him to break with his blue collar background by networking throughout his community. It led to Ferrazzi:

Raise your hand if you love networking.
I thought so.
And why don&#8217;t you get a thrill out of talking to friends and family about your job search?
For many folks, it&#8217;s a problem of how to start. There&#8217;s really no way to ask, &#8220;Know anyone who&#8217;s hiring?&#8221; without feeling awkward.
To fix that, here are two ways to open your next networking conversation that are proven to produce job leads &#8212; and won&#8217;t make you feel self-conscious .

But I boiled their frustrations down to four common ones.
Here they are, with suggested solutions. Which of them apply to you?
Frustration #1: &#8220;I submit my resume for a posted job and never hear back
from employers. Did they even read my resume?&#8221;
Solution: Here are three ways to make sure your resume is received and read.

Used correctly, LinkedIn can be one of the most valuable weapons in your job-search arsenal.

A statement I often hear is “isn’t tapping into the hidden job market just networking?” In short, no. It’s about going direct – and cutting out both “internal” and “external” middle men. Internal within the company (i.e. HR) and external outside of the company (i.e. recruiters).

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re job hunting in this tough economy, take heart from the following
three stories of people who found work in three to four months &#8212; about half
as long as the average job search, which takes nearly 8 months (31.2 weeks)
as of March 2010.
How did they do it?
By using Guerrilla Resumes (explained below), LinkedIn, and smart
networking, among other tactics.
Read on to learn more from the Q&#38;A I did with each of them &#8230;
Case Study #1:
Brad Viles, from suburban Madison, WI.

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks back, Miami’s private high schools sent their fall term acceptance letters.  It’s a big deal for us Miami locals as many of us are alumni and would like to see our kids attending our alma mater.  We were blessed when we got news our youngest daughter was accepted to her school of choice.  It&#8217;s the school one of her sisters attended.  Both my sisters attended high school there.
Unfortunately, not everyone is so fortunate.  We have a friend whose son got rejected.  Instead of celebrating, his ...]]></description>

The Five Worst and Best Job Search Approaches
So what&#8217;s the basic information do you need to get you through your job search?  For this I&#8217;m going to start with information from a resource every job hunter needs on their bookshelf. Better yet, they need it face up, open on their desk with a whole lot of bookmarks and highlighting showing how hard it&#8217;s being used.
Talk to anyone with an HR background and they know this book.   The resource is Richard ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Losing Your Job Is Tough, But You&#8217;ll Do Just Fine
If in the middle of a job search, you and your family are facing a challenging time. You&#8217;re dealing with fear, anger and anxiety.
I know job struggles from personal experience.  There&#8217;s a saying that goes,
When one door closes, another one opens, but it&#8217;s hell in the hallway.
That spelled it out for me perfectly when I look back on my job search in 2004.  (You can read the details about that one at on the site&#8217;s About Us page.)
In 2007, I ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fact: The advertised job market is literally the tip of the iceberg.
Fully 70-80% of jobs go unadvertised by employers, who fear being deluged by hundreds of resumes from applicants, most of whom won&#8217;t be qualified.
With that in mind, it makes sense to spend about 80% of your time cracking this &#8220;hidden&#8221; market of unadvertised jobs. And a good way to do it is to contact hiring managers at companies you want to work for. Your aim? To prove that hiring you would be a terrific investment, one that makes or ...]]></description>
