Rise To the TOP of that Resume Pile!

Don’t make the mistake of ignoring “The Brand Called YOU” in your job search. Having a powerful and consistent personal brand separates you from everyone else, and get’s you five steps closer to your next job.

Some job seekers still think in terms of the old job market paradigm. The old paradigm said:

• most companies post to job boards
• had full-time recruiters who carefully selected candidates
• expected employees to stay for at least five years

ALL OF THAT HAS CHANGED, FOREVER…

The realities of the new job market have shifted the job seeker’s paradigm on its head. Now, most jobs never even see the light of a public posting. Many companies have laid off corporate recruiters leaving hiring up to the line manager, who doesn’t even get paid for that task. And candidates are not expected to stay in any one job for more than two years.

The only thing consistent from job to job in your career is You. Your brand is going to stay with you until you retire. Oh, it will change and adapt. But You will still be recognizable.

If anything is important for your job search, then Your personal brand is the most critical and most overlooked step to finding a job in today’s market.
