Anyone with a LinkedIn account receives a dozen or so emails a week about a “life changing” career opportunity. Some are valid, legitimate opportunities, some are futile at best.
Why?
Life changing opportunities require knowing where to find them. They don’t come to you in unsolicited emails from social media. LinkedIn’s is a great social media platform, but in all reality, the best jobs are not advertised
How do You Find Your Dream Job Opportunity?
They’re usually landed by knowing someone who is in a great position (another reason for a mentor). These positions are usually ones in which a recruiter is looking for such a unique personality fit and a special skillset that they’re zealously guarded. Chances are, they won’t be posting this online.
And with good reason. People have a misconception that where there’s a job listing, there is only one opening. This isn’t always the case. There may be an opening for a Sr. Java Developer and Jr. Java Developer – however, only the junior is advertised. The senior position could be something that recruiters keep a keen eye out for and knows is available while interviewing, but won’t mention until he or she finds the right candidate. This is one of the reasons it pays to work with a recruiter.
Why You Should work with a Recruiter
Recruiters also have connections. Many of them work with and have developed a relationship with multiple companies. This allows them the opportunity to pair up candidates and openings with specific business cultures in mind, ensuring maximum long-term stability, productivity, and job satisfaction.
