What does "hiring an employer" entail? It is an approach that empowers you to take control of your job search rather than waiting on employers to respond to you. In this book I share about my failed attempts to get a job despite graduating from a recognized institution and applying to over 100 positions. Through my failures and ultimate journey to success I learned four key principles: Seek Help, Find Connections, Conduct Informational Interviews, and Learn to Pitch Yourself.
Here are a few results I experienced by following the strategy outlined in this book:
- I went from looking for a job on my own to following advice of mentors who had already done what I was trying to do
- I went from having ZERO contacts in the industry I wanted to work in to building relationship with over 40 professionals in that industry
- I went from having no job offers to deciding between multiple competing offers.
- I ended up calling one employer and declining their offer before even listening to it.
- Most importantly, I didn't just "land a job". I was able to target the top organizations I wanted to work for and strategically placed myself in a career with growth opportunities
