Advanced Career Technologies Study: 20% of Job Seekers at $50,000+ Can't Communicate Their Skills

New York, NY �� "Our study of people currently in the market for jobs paying $50,000 or more has turned up the surprising fact that only 20% of them effectively communicate their real skills." Best selling author Robert J. Gerberg makes that point in his latest book, The Professional Job Changing System. "For the most part they can make clear all the functions they filled, and people are getting better at showing their accomplishments. But few realize they need to go to the next level and make it easy for the employer to see what transferable skills and personal strengths they applied to make contributions."

"When you do that, you take the focus away from the employer wondering whether you know enough about their company or industry, and instead have them thinking how they might use your skills to their advantage, the way you've used them in the past. As you can see, this would be especially important if you are attempting to change industries or join a growth firm, which many people are these days. This is just one of many ways my newest book, available hardcover in bookstores nationwide, will give people a much better chance of success when they search for a job in today's super-competitive market."

"We made sure we included everything a person needs to know, and how to take the action steps required, from getting started to winning an offer. We start with preparation and knowing how to set clear goals, identify best industry prospects, develop a resume that sets them apart, and neutralize liabilities. In the 2nd section people learn how to get greater exposure to opportunities in the published and unpublished job markets. In the published market they learn about answering more ads and contacting more recruiters."

"In the unpublished market, they get instruction and examples on networking, making direct contact with selected employers, which has to be done right to be effective, and learning to spot news that signals emerging jobs. When they get considered for these opportunities, of course, they need to turn interviews into offers, which they learn how to do in the 3rd section. The 4th section has great advice on keeping momentum, building a will to succeed and maintaining your enthusiasm, which is all-important."
