Proactive Pays Off
April 28th, 2008 by Amanda
You would be surprised at what a difference it makes when you are ruthlessly, passionately and energetically chasing down your dream job. As a Creative Recruiter, I have seen several candidates have great success because they cared enough to follow up and follow through. They were happy to endure multiple phone interviews, technology expertise questioning, additional references and even happy to plan their own travel in order to have the opportunity to “wow” someone face to face. I’ve seen some very talented folks who just didn’t follow through with this type of energy and rather, demanded that I do the work for them. I am a recruiter, so in all honesty, I will do anything I can to help move someone into a job, but as a 3rd party, I can’t do the impressing and diligent work for you. My advice: find that happy medium between stalking and lacking ambition and go for it. This is how you will land your dream job. Be patient, be willing and be humble. Read here:

Hi
I thought you will be interested to know that my company,
eGrabber (www.egrabber.com), has just
released Social Network Grabber for Excel.
This tool enables recruiters to capture and import all LinkedIn profiles
from LinkedIn search results into Excel with a single click!
There is no programming to do. This tool can be given to admins
and others to help create an initial database of prospects.
The tool automatically opens each individual profile and imports
every attribute from the LinkedIn profile into a column in Excel.
All formatting is automatically and professionally handled.
Recruiters can quickly shortlist candidates and forward the Excel
list to hiring managers. Links within Excel allow hiring managers
to directly access resume. This is a real time saver!
