The No.1 Tip For Getting A Job
In two (2) weeks time, you’ll be able to get your copy of Insider Job Secrets Revealed, my unorthodox, controversial - and totally EFFECTIVE - guide to getting the job you want.
But if I could sum up and give you my No.1 tip for getting a job, it’s this:
In every interaction with your potential employer… clearly communicate that you can and will do the job to meet, and ideally, exceed their expectations.
Now, this may seem obvious.
Isn’t that the idea of applying for a job? To convince the employer that you can do the job far better than anyone else?
Yet, how many times have you actually explained to a prospective employer, step by step, how you will achieve the results they want?
How many times have you explained how cost-effective, productive and profitable it will be to hire you?
How many times have you explained why you will do a superior job to anyone else?
And how many times have you grabbed a pen and paper and laid it out for them so they can SEE the value you bring?
I mean, it’s “obvious” that this is what interviews SHOULD be about… but how many times have you actually done any, let alone all, of these things in an job interview?
Not that it’s your fault if you haven’t… how many interviews actually give you the chance to do so?
Often they’re much more focused on what you’ve done in the past, your various qualifications, and what your so-called “strengths and weaknesses” are!
But you DO have the power to turn the interview around so you can demonstrate your ability to do the job.
Of course, for you to confidently do so, you’ll need to do more “interview preparation” work than simply practising pat answers to the “Top 10 Interview Questions.”
To really know what it takes to the job in a way that exceeds, if not meets, your boss’s and the company’s expectations, you’ll at least need to know about:
- The company
- The boss
- The job
- The problems the job is supposed to solve, and
- The results the job is supposed to achieve
In other words, you’ll need to do some serious research!
But think of the rewards…
When you are the ONLY job candidate who demonstrates a solid grasp of what the company and job are all about… the ONLY candidate who actually demonstrates how you will DO the job better than anyone else… the ONLY candidate who makes the effort to show how you’ll do the job…
…You’ll stand head and shoulders above everyone else… and it may just get you the job!
Now, Insider Job Secrets Revealed explains exactly how to do all this, and next week I’ll let you know when and how to get a copy. (As I’ve said before, unless it’s urgent, I suggest you hold off any job-hunting efforts UNTIL you read this book!)
And, of course, as a loyal Success Accelerator subscriber, you’ll also get the opportunity to get the book at a discount. |
