Focus Should be Your#1 Priority by Laura Smith-Proulx. Published by Executive Agent.
As you might know, the fact that Internet applications dominate the employment landscape means that you can find online job postings in droves. As more and more job hunters descend upon these same boards in the same droves, however, it can be tough to find (and elicit a response for) the optimum fit.
Your search can seemingly extend into infinity if you fail to focus long enough to communicate your qualifications; remember that your executive credentials represent a targeted solution to employer needs.
Here, I've offered 5 key reasons why focus should be your #1 priority in a leadership job hunt-and how to get it:
-
Communicating your personal brand is the best way to get employers to take notice.
Personal branding for leadership resumes is rapidly emerging as the optimum way to not only differentiate you from other candidates, but also make it easier for you to access the upper echelon of your target companies.
Conversely, if you fail to brand your unique qualities, you may be approached for jobs that are beneath your abilities, or that are a sideways fit for your core competencies.
The takeaway here is that you need to evaluate not only the results you gain for your employers, but the strategies you employ to produce them. Answer the following questions carefully to mine for this information:
- What energizes you about work?
- What reputation have you attained - what are you known for?
- What kinds of work fit your natural talent?
- What challenges and settings are a best fit for your experience?
- What do others say about your contributions?
To make the process easier, remember that you are identifying information that employers need in order make a hiring decision.
-
No one has time to connect the dots; do it for them!
The hiring audience is just as busy as you are. Considering that recruiters often scan resumes quickly and on electronic devices, brevity is the key for conveying a strong brand.
For example, many leadership professionals use a concise, two-page resume, while offering drill-down capabilities with documents including an Executive Biography, Key Initiatives, or Leadership Addendum.
The bottom line? Stick to a concise (think intense) presentation for your skills, and consider adding a suite of supporting documents to add details that emphasize your value proposition.
-
Being all things to all people isn't good enough anymore.
If you possess a diverse skill set, that's wonderful, but what do you want to do with it?
While a colorful background can serve as a conversation point, hiring authorities need to see how your talent supports a particular role in their organization.
To deliver a focused presentation, create one resume for each job type. First, identify each career goal, then write your resume centered around it.
Add supporting detail that describes the relevance of your other experience to that same goal, and minimize unrelated information to let the job type emerge as a focal point. Repeat these steps for each job type or goal.
Following these steps may mean that you need to use more than one resume; however, your results will be reflected in the efforts that you take to sharpen your focus.
-
Automated systems have made the general resume obsolete.
Not only is a "general" resume a job search killer, as it makes your qualifications hard to digest, but it typically lacks sufficient keyword content to successfully pass scanning applications.
Since many companies select only resumes with the appropriate keyword count, focus on one job type becomes even more critical. Add as much keyword and specific job type information as possible in order to address this issue head-on.
If you're stumped for ideas, use job posting descriptions to add areas of skill that represent your experience.
-
Adding excess information for employers to read only confuses them.
If you remember one thing, make it this: the more information presented that is irrelevant to the goal, the more likely your resume will NOT make the cut.
For this reason, consider very carefully the relevance of the what you present on your resume. Is it tied to your position requirements? Does it support your overall value proposition?
If not, ruthlessly edit the extraneous data to produce a more concise message.
In summary, adding focus to your job search gives you numerous ways to concisely convey your ROI to hiring managers.
Doing so will mean that employers can see the fit based on your personal chemistry and unique contributions-which can lead to a higher-level, more lucrative leadership opportunity.

5 Tips to Capture the Magic of a Cover Letter by Laura Smith-Proulx. Published by JobDig.
Is there any other interviewing technique that will set you apart like a Thank You Letter? Possibly not - and studies have shown that only 20% of candidates remember this crucial step, and of that figure, nearly 80% get hired!
For this reason, I highly recommend adding this strategy to your arsenal of job hunting tools. In addition, it's a great way to be remembered and expand your network - all key steps in today's competitive market.
As a former recruiter, I recall that it was rare for any candidate to remember to thank me after an interview. You can bet that any applicant doing so scored some serious points.
Here are 5 pointers for a Thank You letter that wows employers and puts you in top consideration for a high-powered role:
1 - Personalized is best. In fact, the more of a high-touch feel to your Thank You letter, the better. This means that handwritten cards are a fantastic strategy for interviewees.
One method that works well is to keep blank, business-styled note cards in your car. Take them out after the interview while still in the parking lot, and write your notes right then and there.
You'll find that the information discussed at the interview is still fresh enough that you should have plenty of ideas - plus, you'll impress interviewers with the handwritten approach.
2 - Don't leave anyone out. I've heard from many job hunters that thanking EVERYONE, from the receptionist to the CEO, was key to putting their best foot forward after an interview.
In fact, one such professional who did this reported back that he maintained contact at the company, and even though he wasn't hired right then, was asked to come back a few months later to interview for a more senior-level role.
3 - Immediacy is key. It's best to maintain your relevancy in the minds of hiring authorities, and that means being ready to go as soon as possible after the interview.
Some professionals overnight their Thank You letters to the hiring manager. Others email them promptly (within HOURS) after the interview.
Again, this is a technique that clearly sends the message of your intent regarding the job.
4 - Skip the stalker tactics. While a quick reminder on letterhead can speak volumes about your professionalism, odd gestures like sending a shoe to "get your foot in the door" can backfire big-time.
Keep in mind that your main goal is to be remembered for your strengths and presentation - NOT the fact that you can scare the people who've interviewed you.
5 - Get to the point. The best Thank You letters start by expressing your appreciation of the interviewer's time, and then move on to a concrete example of what interests you about the job.
For example, mentioning that you enjoyed discussing the company's plans for expansion, or noting that the new IT security project sounds like a great area for your contributions, can keep you top-of-mind while indicating that you'd like to be a core contributor.
Closing with a reiteration of your interest is always appropriate, as is a stated declaration that you look forward to future discussions with the interviewer about the position. Keep your letter short!
So, the next time an interviewing opportunity presents itself, remember to maintain your edge with a professional Thank You letter that just might land you the job.
