Shorten Your Job Search - Were Here to Help...

Shorten Yur Job Search - Were Here to Help...Shorten Your Job Search - Were Here to Help...Folks, Ill be bringing my message of simplifying your senior level job hunt to a radio station near you soon. Listen for us on WBAP in Dallas, WFAN in New York City, and more stations soon.Of course, this is just the beginning as we spread the ja genau of Ladders.com.And that word is spreading. Today, we haveOver 2,000 individual recruiters and hiring managers who post jobs to Ladders.comMore than 13,000 new jobs each and every month across all our newslettersOver 202,000 readers like you whove turned to Ladders.com to find your next role in life faster and more comprehensivelyThats the power of Ladders.com - watch, look, and listen for us across the country this winter.SHORTEN YOUR JOB SEARCH WITH USThe $100K+ job search used to be a frustrating game of hide-and-seek. The jobs would hide and youd spend 90% of your time seeking.That didnt make a whole lot of sense to me when I was an SVP at Ho tJobs, and I saw how our model contributed to the problem.Because it was free to apply for jobs, wed have dishwashers and lots of underqualified folks from overseas applying for the great senior level jobs that showed up. Human nature being what it is, the feeling is why not apply for this great job even if Im wholly inappropriate. What the heck, its free and I might just get it. Lets face it youve done it, Ive done it, weve all applied for a job that was a bit of a stretch from time to time.And you can imagine what the high-powered senior recruiters, with not much time to spare in a busy day, had to say about that Hey Marc, dont send us hundreds of bad resumes that we have to waste hours sorting out just send us the highly qualified good ones.So the system was broken. And thats just simply no way for a mature, responsible country to go about placing its leaders in their next role in life. Think of all the wasted time and effort and talentYou see, the way top people get jobs is by s elling themselves networking, interviewing, showing up in person so that the recruiter or hiring manager can see firsthand the talent, the ambition, the passion.And you might be surprised for a tech-geek like me to say this Ive never known anybody to get hired sight-unseen while sitting behind a computer screen. Might sound like a good line for a country-western song, but its the honest truth.Thats why I created Ladders.com.Because there are dozens, if not hundreds, of good jobs out there for somebody at your level, in your region of the country, and you shouldnt have to spend hours hunting and pecking around the internet to find out where they are. You should be handed a good list of leads each week by somebody who knows the recruiting business really well. That way, you can spend your time on those important things that are going to get you hired phoning, networking, interviewing and chatting.So, look, you could do all this searching yourselfClick here to buy the Kennedy Informati on Guide to Executive Recruiters (book and CD-ROM available for $250) with over 13,000 of them listedAnd you can go right ahead and call them all.But for around a dollar a day, we do all that for you, and, actually, quite a bit moreWhen you contact a corporate recruiter or executive search professional, unfortunately, its often tough for them to give you the time you deserve because of the volume of correspondence they wade through.When Ladders.com contacts them, representing 202,000 Readers, theyre pretty eager to listen.When you send in your resume over the transom, the recruiter doesnt know how to pick your high-quality resume out of the piles and piles of dreck.By contrast, Ladders.com sends an average of just twelve high-quality resumes to each job in our system. Thats why recruiters love us so much.The time and expense of calling all these recruiters and hiring managers to ask if they have an opening for someone like you, even if you have a eager-to-please teenage son working along with you (an oxymoron, I know, folks) could just about eat up your wallet and your savings.While here at Ladders.com, we have an active outreach program run by Dave Carvajal, a great recruiter and one of the co-founders of HotJobs.com. What Dave and his team do each week is work the phones and the inboxes of corporate recruiters and executive search professionals across the country to find you the best jobs on the planet.So by combing through more than 70,000 jobs each week to pull out the three or four thousand best ones, by contacting recruiters to get at their hidden jobs, and by giving you the leads and the tools to spend your time more effectively, we want to make your job hunt shorter, more successful, and less stressful.Let us know how were doingWHAT READERS SAYSo what do you, the wonderful Readers of Ladders.com, think so far? Lets listen to you in your own wordsI got a job with The Target Corporation, as a Sr. Project Mgr. I have seen many good jobs on your website, a nd recommended your site to a few friends. fruchtwein of the positions you have were not listed elsewhere. I enjoyed the articles too I wish you continued successJeanine Viani,Minneapolis, MNJust a quick email to say thanks for a great no BS service, great web experience, and a *great* network Your, Im not going to waste your time with gimmicks, personality shines throughout the site, and is a refreshing respite and oasis from the vast wasteland of cyberspace headhunters. Thanks for keeping it real, and dont be afraid to keep speaking your mind the Internet can be a very intimate medium and your courage to distance yourself from corporate brochure-speak will continue to differentiate your brand from the pack.Doug OBryon,Germantown, MDFor several weeks now, I have been a daily visitor to UpLadder. As someone contemplating my own job/career transition, I am extremely familiar with many job sites, and find yours to be unique in several important and basic ways, from the elegance of you r business approach to your customer relations pitch (intelligent and not preachy) You make excellent use of the latest technologies. The site looks and works great. Your job descriptions are clear and concise. And your listings are top notch. Its all very well thought out.Brian August,New York, NYI must commend you on your site. With a little bit of diligence, I was offered a position at 3 times what I am making now. I still have not decided if I am going to take the position, but it is a better offer than I have had to date.Thank you again, David C. Gess,Lexington, KYThanks for your kind words Readers And, yes, in addition to the good stuff, wed especially like to hear from you how we can get even better, so please let us know
