Advanced Career Technologies Advice: Story Tellers Do Best in Job Interviews
New York, NY ��� "Thousands of case studies can't be wrong. In close to 5000 documented successful job searches, one of the factors people mentioned most often for their success in interviews was learning from us how to tell action-oriented stories that were clear examples of how they've contributed in the past. In my latest book, The Professional Job Changing System, I teach people how to do this," says Robert J. Gerberg, best selling author.
"When you think about it, you can see why it's so effective. To prepare hard hitting stories, people need to go through the discipline of being specific about the challenges they faces, the precise actions they took to get things done, and the results. When you are specific like that, not only are you telling a memorable story that gives you a lot of credibility, you are also very accurate, so you neither overstate nor understate your role and what you did. Employers appreciate that. They get a firm grasp of the way you operate, and how your approach would work for them."
"But that's just one of hundreds of essential things we do for job seekers in this book, which is available hardcover in bookstores nationwide. At the outset, we decided we wanted to give people everything they need to understand, and everything they need to know how to do, in order to run a successful job search, complete with examples. It's fast moving, easy to understand and easy to implement."
"So from preparing with clear goals, your best industry prospects, developing a better resume and neutralizing liabilities ahead of time, to learning how to get greater exposure to opportunities in the published and unpublished job markets, to interviewing far more effectively, people will learn all they need to know. They'll get valuable insights for answering more ads and contacting more recruiters in the published market. In the unpublished market, they get instruction and examples on networking, the little known benefits and techniques for making direct contact with selected employers, and learning to spot news that signals emerging jobs. There is also great advice on building a will to succeed and maintaining your enthusiasm, which is all-important, and much more."
