Get Hired Now!

The average working adult will change jobs ten times over his or her lifetime. Searching for a job can be an overwhelming and often daunting task. Where do you start? How do you find that great new job? How do you stay motivated when you feel so frustrated?

That's where C.J. Hayden and Frank Traditi's best-selling book, Get Hired Now!TM (Bay Tree Publishing, 2005), gives you a complete job search system for the job seeker in any field. This book contains a twenty-eight day programme for coaching yourself to job search success. It has everything you need to strengthen your job search, make the best use of your time and energy, stay motivated in the face of rejection, and land the job you want.

I like the Book's practical and systematic approach to the process of job search, obtaining interviews, and getting hired. Its strategies, daily action items, and checklists keep the job seeker focused on reaching the objective in the shortest time and using the most effective techniques. This programme is especially effective where a coach facilitates the programme with a group of job seekers. The coach provides professional assistance in dealing with blocks and obstacles, handling challenges and brainstorming solutions, support during bad times, and celebrating with job seekers when they succeed.

Surveys estimate that seventy-four to eighty-five percent of available jobs are never ever advertised. Yet most job seekers only apply for the fifteen percent of jobs that are advertised. This creates intense competition amongst these job seekers for a limited number of advertised positions, whereas savvy job seekers are able to position themselves to choose the employers and secure the jobs they desire amongst the eighty-five percent of jobs not advertised, with no competitive pressures to worry about.

In reading through the Book, I was struck by how much the job search process resembled that of prospecting for business with potential clients. Job-hunting is approached the same as that of sales. Potential employers are treated as if they are potential clients. In one job search, a job seeker targeted six companies. He contacted all of them and called them many times until he got an interview and a job with one of them.

The Book is divided into two parts. Part One covers the Get Hired Now!TM system. This system breaks down the job search process into a series of simple steps so you will know exactly where and how to start finding a job today. It organises the steps into a proven system built around three powerful elements: effective job search approaches, an action-oriented, twenty-eight day programme, and suggestions for managing the fear, resistance, and procrastination that may hinder your job search. The programme shows you how all the pieces of the job search puzzle fit together, what to do, when to do it, and how to measure your results.

The Book goes into detail about the different job search approaches, from networking and referral building, contacting potential employers, informational interviewing, employing recruiters and agencies, searching specialises job listings, and finally using help wanted advertisements.

Part Two of the book contains instructions for preparing your chosen success ingredients, as well as job search "recipes" to help you apply the approaches specified in your action plan. This part elaborates on the job search pyramid, starting from knowing what you want, finding opportunities and contacts, applying to employers, getting interviews, and landing the job.

"To be successful at your job search you must free your fears about asking for what you want. Look at this time in your life as a window of opportunity. It could very well be the chance of a lifetime to find the ideal job. If you start your job search off on the right foot, stay organised, and sustain a positive attitude even when things appear bleak, your persistence will pay off." That's how Hayden and Traditi concluded the Get Hired Now!TM book.

In writing Get Hired Now!TM, Hayden and Traditi have done a great service in advancing job-seekers interests by sharing a wealth of secrets for getting the job you really want with the talent you already have.
