A silver lining to a down economy is that it stirs a spirit of entrepreneurship. When people lose their jobs, they start thinking of being their own boss or going into business for themselves. Contracting or working on a temporary basis are ways professionals take control of their career paths. Companies also look to hire temporary staff or contractors in a down economy for many reasons: it saves money on hiring costs; it saves money on employment costs such as taxes and benefits; it fills what might be a temporary need for talent in a specialized situation; and finally, it allows the company to “try before you buy” for possible permanent employees in the future.

If you are considering going down the path of independent contracting, make sure your resume and cover letter are adequately prepared for your direction. Contractors and consultants are hired for their expertise in very specific skills or areas. Your resume should be focused on your precise skill set and how you have used that skill set in the past to bring value to projects, programs, and initiatives. Here are some tips to make sure your resume shows you have the right stuff for the job.

Specific Branding Line – Objectives are generally not used in resumes these days but branding lines are. Make sure your resume has a clear branding line that establishes the focus of your resume and clues the reader in on where your expertise lies. For example, if you are an expert in collections, you might have a branding line of “Accounts Receivable Specialist”. If you have a specific technical expertise related to your goal, use the branding line to make that clear; for example, “Software Assurance Engineer – Agile Methodology”.

Core Competencies Section – Focusing on a specific expertise can be a great strategy in a tight market, and a core competencies section can make that focus laser-like. Build a keyword section in the first half of the resume, bringing in phrases, skills, and knowledge that show your expertise. These should all be detailed, not “fluff phrases” such as “Good communicator”; for example, if you are a benefits specialist, you might have keywords related to pensions, compensation analysis, or risk management.

Tech Skills Section – Technology specialists should have a strong technical skills section in addition to a core competencies section. Employers look for specific technology exposure such as operating system versions, development tools, network management tools, etc. Your tech skills section should be up-to-date and reflect skills most in demand for your goal job. Carefully consider older skills because providing an exhaustive list of extinct technologies can make you look like a dinosaur instead of someone on the leading edge.

Strong Summary Section – Keeping in mind that you are targeting consulting or contracting, it’s likely your role will not involve a great deal of strategic actions. Most consultants are hired for a specific project or need, not for fitting into a long-term, strategic program. When constructing a strong summary, it may not be wise to expound about strategic planning, long-term vision, or team building because those skills are not going to be high on the list for a great consultant.

Temporary assignments or consulting are a viable option for job seekers and many thrive on the ever-changing landscape of independent contracting. Employers also lean toward temporary hires or hiring independent consultants in a down economy because it makes sense money-wise. Everyone is seeking to get the most important things done with as little expense as possible. Historically, demand for temporary employees increases during times of recession and recovery as employers keep tight rein on budget expenditures. If you have not considered temporary assignments or working as an independent consultant, now may be the time!

Doostang News March 29: Three Reasons Why You’re Not Getting Hired

It’s a tough job market right now, so if you’re not landing that dream job right away, it’s not necessarily a result of poor job searching habits. You can be doing everything right and still find it difficult to procure even an interview for months on end. But just in case you aren’t a master of the whole process, here are a few mistakes you might be making.

You Have Unreasonable Expectations

Many people feel that because they have an advanced degree, a diploma from a great university, years of experience, or numerous accolades under their belt, that they’re going to ease their way through the job market. And when they don’t, they become confused. Chances are, unless you know someone, you’re not going to work the system. You must be willing to work as hard as everyone else if you want to score the career of your dreams. The only things that will come easy to you will likely be positions that you aren’t thrilled to accept anyway – ones for which all those aforementioned merits render you overqualified. Because so many people are out of work, the race for most jobs is fiercely competitive. You cannot underestimate the quality of the applicant pool, and therefore must increase your chances by applying to as many jobs as possible.

You’re Scared of Rejection

It’s natural – no one likes to be told that they aren’t good enough. Unfortunately, this is going to happen a lot throughout your job search. The trick is to not take it personally, and to realize that you could have been good enough; there was just someone else who was a better fit. Still, many people hesitate to put themselves out there, assuming that they’re underqualified, that there will be too many other applicants, or that their resume won’t reach an actual person…all this before they even consider applying. When you approach the application process with this mentality, there’s absolutely no chance you will snag the job you have your sights set on. So lose the fear, accept that not everyone is going to tell you “Yes”, and apply to every position you can.

You’re Not Making the Job Search Your Job

We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: you need to make the job search your job. There’s no way around it, this needs to be your priority. It’s tempting to sleep in, get sucked into daytime soap operas, or spend your time daydreaming when you don’t have a 9-5 – but you can’t afford to let these activities take over your day. One of the greatest perks about not having a job is all the free time you suddenly have…great! Now devote all of that extra time to finding employment. The more time you spend searching and applying, the more you get your name out there, the closer you are to finding work. So really hold yourself accountable on this one, and go at it 110%.

Landing a great job is a difficult feat, even for the best of us. The greatest thing you can do for yourself is to get into good habits and to really put yourself out there. Be intense. Be fearless. Be a force to be reckoned with! And, of course, keep applying to those jobs on Doostang.

Until next time,

It had been one of those days. You know the kind when everything goes wrong. Murphy’s Law kicked in and just as you struggled to put out the latest fire, you received a call from a hiring manager or recruiter about a great job. The phone call is always the first interview and it is crucial. You knew that yet you were distracted and stressed.

The employer had already reduced the candidate pool to a select group and you made that group based on your resume. That day he was calling candidates for further elimination in order to whittle the group to a smaller number for face-to-face interviews. Unfortunately, that call came right when chaos broke loose in your world and you crashed and burned. What can you do to salvage the situation?

First, take a deep breath and get past the urge to kick yourself. Okay, so you blew it but it doesn’t have to stay a hopeless situation. Be proactive and take some steps to turn the situation around rather than indulge in self-pity. Attitude is everything! Here are some suggestions:

Eliminate distractions immediately. You weren’t ready for the call, yet you answered the phone anyway rather than letting it roll to voice mail. Whatever the distractions were when you hit the call button, get rid of them fast. You have a limited amount of time to rescue this situation and you need to get busy.
What questions did you not answer well? Think about it and jot down a few notes. Get your thoughts organized and think of what you should have said.
Get your resume in front of you. It’s your cheat sheet and it is also the document from which the hiring manager is working so you literally need to be “on the same page”. That also means knowing which version the employer is viewing. If you’ve sent multiple versions out for your job search, you should track those so you don’t look stupid by having to ask “Uh, which resume are you looking at?” in the interview.
Find a quiet place. If you have to go sit in your car so you don’t have screaming kids in the background (or whatever), do it. Get your mind in “professional business mode”, away from the more casual/crisis mindset.
Prepare a question about the company. You are trying to make a new impression, so you want to talk intelligently to the hiring manager or recruiter. This should not be a question about the JOB but about the company. Impress him/her with a question that shows you’ve done your research and have a serious interest where the company is concerned.

You need to do these things very quickly after hanging up from the disastrous initial phone call because you want to call the hiring manager back and try to salvage the situation as soon as possible. Once you are ready, call the recruiter or hiring manager back. This is how you will approach the call:

“Hi Joe? John Smith here. We just spoke and I wanted to give you a quick call back to apologize for my distraction. Unfortunately, a crisis meeting (or whatever) had my focus at the moment. I was excited to get your call, but I should have rescheduled for a better time. ABC Industries interests me and you got my attention. My poor impression concerns me, especially when you asked me about XYZ (this is the question you bombed). A second opportunity to respond to that would be great. I also have some questions about the new product launch going on there at ABC Industries (this will pertain to the question about the company). Can we reschedule and let me take another run at answering your questions?”

You can also leave this as a voice mail in case you don’t get through. The point is you are being proactive. Your goals are to admit you weren’t up to your best which demonstrates character; acknowledge your poor response to a question; show your interest in the company; and request a second interview. Since 99.9% of the other candidates won’t go this far, you will immediately have an edge. You will be “the one who called back”. It will be an additional checkmark in the positive column for your candidacy and may well make the difference in getting you passed on to the next round of interviews.

Doostang Success – Job after Just 2.5 Weeks

Mar 24

Posted by doostang in Job Search, Success Stories | View Comments

Toshi
Occidental College, 2009

“Having just arrived in New York City right around the new year, my first priority was finding employment. I was living with a friend from college who had moved to New York, and had figured out a rent plan with him that allowed me a few months to get my bearings before starting to pay him rent. However, as I was accumulating debt on top of college loans that I already owed, I felt strong pressure to find a job right away.

Another friend from college informed me about Doostang, the job search website that helped him find his current job. I thought it was a little expensive as I had only used free job sites previously like Monster and Craigslist. However, since my friend raved about Doostang, I decided to give the website a try and signed up for a month.

Within 10 days of signing up I had received my first job interview and within 2 and 1/2 weeks I was offered a job.

Now, thanks to Doostang, I am happily employed and able to make my payments.”

Doostang News March 22: Show Me the Money! Tips for Negotiating a Raise

Mar 22

Hedge Fund Analyst, New York, NY

Asking for a raise can be a bit tricky. There’s that sentiment akin to asking your parents to tack on a few extra bucks to your allowance; and then there’s the walking-on-eggshells feeling you get in trying not to overstep your boundaries with your boss. But asking for a raise is OK, and it’s a two-way conversation that you can navigate tactfully if you keep a few things in mind:

Do Your Time

Although rightly deserved in some cases, a raise is not going to present itself on Day 2, no matter how convincing you are in presenting your case to your boss. The fact is, in order to rationalize paying you more money for the same work, an employer must see that you have made progress and remained loyal to the company. A company can find any old schmo off the street to do the work for a starting level salary. But go above and beyond, and they may be inclined to attach a few more dollar signs to your value.

Determine Your Reasons

In order to present a convincing case to your boss, it helps to understand why you are asking for a raise in the first place. Is it because your living expenses have gone up? Are you expecting a new addition to the family? Don’t misunderstand; simply desiring a higher salary for your excellent work is a completely valid point. But if you can present these motivations to your employer, you may find that they’re more likely to side with you on this one.

Be Reasonable

Of course you’re going to sound like a child when you put forth the whole “I want a million dollars” offer. That, and you’re going to get shut down very quickly. In order to be taken seriously, present a sensible figure to your boss, one that is on par with the work that you complete. This will get you much farther in negotiating with you boss.

Practice Savvy Negotiating Tactics

Alright, that said, you may want to present a number to your employer that is a bit higher than the actual raise you wish to receive. The boss didn’t get to where they are by being a pushover. They’ll likely try to bargain you down, trying to take you at your bottom limit. Before you propose anything, then, figure out what your bottom limit is. Give your boss a number that is higher than this – but not too high – and once negotiating begins, don’t allow yourself to go below this bottom line. Hopefully, the two of you will settle on something in the middle.

Understand Your Value

Logically, a company wishes to pay as little as they can while still employing reliable employees who complete great work. At the same time, their great wish is to keep their workers happy, which is equally – if not more – important to business. You may view a large corporation powerful and yourself lucky, in that they decided to give you a job in the first place. But it’s crucial to realize that you are equally as vital to them as they are to you. You are valuable and they know it. If you’re doing a great job, bring this up in a negotiation. Present numbers, graphs, or work samples when you go in to speak to your boss. Tell them that you’re worth it and show them why. Make them an offer they can’t refuse.

Keep these 5 things in mind when negotiating with your employer and you’ll be more likely to get your point across, make a favorable impression, and walk away with what you deserve.

Good luck!

Three Must-Have Cover Letters

Salt and pepper. Peanut butter and jelly. Resume and cover letter. Some things just go together. One of the three types of cover letters should always accompany a resume in job search activities. Cover letters come in different “flavors” depending on their use and target audience. Let’s go over the main three cover letters you need for your job search.

1 – General Cover Letter. This letter is written to support the resume and has the broadest use in job search. When contacting a company “cold”, a general cover letter is your best bet because the primary purpose is to introduce you and highlight some of the key points brought into the resume. Sometimes referred to as a “broadcast letter”, it can be used when sending your resume to many recipients at once in a mass mail, too.

While general in nature, the general cover letter should be “employer focused” meaning the wording shows the reader how the company could benefit from the job seekers experience. A general cover letter does not mention specifics such as salary requirements but may mention relocation if it is an issue. Just as objectives are not used on resumes, language that details the wants of the job seeker such as “I’m looking for a permanent position with a stable company” should be avoided. The cover letter is a sales document that grabs attention, communicates a professional, intelligent message, and shows the benefits of the “product” (the job seeker).

The general cover letter should always end on a proactive note stating the job seeker’s intention to follow up with the employer rather than closing with a passive “I await your call” message. End the letter with a specific message about when and how you will follow up and then make sure to follow through. The squeaky wheel gets the oil and the squeak starts right here in the cover letter. How many job seekers say “I will follow up with you by email next Wednesday” and then actually do it? Very few! That’s why it makes you stand out when you actually do what you say you will do.

2 – Targeted Cover Letter. When answering a specific job advertisement or responding to an opening for which you have details, a targeted cover letter is the one to use. A targeted letter can be morphed from a General Cover Letter but the content will change to some degree. First of all, the Targeted Cover Letter will mention the specific opening by job title in the first sentence so the reader knows it is a response to the advertisement. It is important for the reader to understand right away which position is being targeted.

Second, the Targeted Cover Letter will bring in specific qualifications which correspond to the requirements outlined in the advertisement. For example, if a job ad states “3-5 years experience in Accounts Receivable” is a top requirement, the Targeted Cover Letter would include verbiage that draws attention to the qualification in that area; perhaps something like “While the position requires 3-5 years experience in AR, I can offer you that and more. My background in Accounts Receivable encompasses almost 7 years of managing over $500,000 in receivables and I have reduced 90 days outstanding by over 75% over the last two years.”

The Targeted Cover Letter can be a fantastic sales tool, especially when you have all “must have” requirements and many of the additional qualifications the employer hopes to find.

3 – Recruiter Cover Letter. A recruiter is not an employer so a cover letter that goes to a recruiter needs to be different. It is important to understand the dynamics of how recruiters work and to keep that in mind when creating the cover letter. Recruiters look for candidates for active, open positions and for positions they fill on a regular basis which can be anticipated. Recruiters do not look for jobs for candidates. The recruiter will review your resume to see if your qualifications match up for any active, open positions. If not, the resume is stored in the database for possible future open positions that will match up. The recruiter’s job is to vet those selectees very closely so the employer is provided with a selection of great candidates – not mediocre or “maybe” candidates. All this should be kept in mind when working with recruiters so your expectations are realistic.

A cover letter to a recruiter will contain some information that normally is not included in the two other types of cover letters. First, the target salary range should be given to the recruiter including base salary and benefits. The one issue for which a recruiter will aggressively advocate on your behalf with an employer is salary because it benefits the recruiter to attain as high a salary as possible. It is to your advantage to work with the recruiter and be open about your salary requirements from the start.

At the same time, salary is a limiting factor for recruiters. The employer gives them a range within which to work. Some recruiters only take assignments at or above certain salary levels, for instance over six-figures. The recruiter needs to know where you fall in the range and it is acceptable to state a range that you are willing to consider. Remember, the recruiter will always try to get the best salary possible for you with the employer if you are the selected candidate so be realistic and honest.

Relocation flexibility, willingness to “pay your own freight” on relocation, and other factors of your employment can be provided a recruiter in the cover letter. If a company has stated no relocation assistance is available, knowing you are willing to foot the bill to move yourself is something the recruiter needs to know.

In general, there are some general guidelines that apply to cover letters. All cover letters should be kept to one page or less when printed or viewed onscreen. Just like in resumes, typos in cover letters are not acceptable. The name header of the cover letter should also match that of the resume so you have a consistent presentation. And finally, the use of “I” should be limited as much as possible throughout the cover letter so it there isn’t a repetitive sentence structure throughout.

All these tips are important when creating and using your cover letter in a job search. Knowing which cover letter to use, how to construct it, and what to include in terms of content can give you a great advantage in the job search. Do hiring managers read cover letters? Yes they do! Make the most of your job search and include a great one to support your efforts.

Doostang News March 15: Think Fast – The 30 Second Resume

More jobs we think you’ll like…

Picture this: you’re walking down the street, and suddenly you run into an old friend or colleague. You’re on your way to a job interview, perhaps, so you’ve got to run, but you have about two minutes to catch up. Your friend asks you what kind of position you’re looking for, and you have a whopping 30 seconds to give your spiel.

This isn’t an uncommon scenario. You constantly run into people – at the grocery store, in line for a movie, in an elevator, etc. – whom you’re acquainted with, and who may very well be able to help you out in your job search. But how do you prioritize what you tell them so that you can maximize their chances of helping you? Here’s what you should make sure to mention…

A Specific Job

You don’t have time to beat around the bush. You need to know exactly what you want, so they know exactly what you want. Don’t waste time waffling on this one.

A Few Qualities

Name a few things you’ve done that would qualify you for the job you’re looking for. This lets that person know that you are qualified, and also gives them a better idea of what sort of position would be right for you when they are on the lookout.

Ask for Help

Do they know of any jobs that are available? Do they have a friend at a company you’re interested in? Do they have any valuable advice? Don’t be afraid to ask for what you want outright. You don’t have time, so you need to cut to the chase. Moreover, asking for help allows the conversation to continue beyond your short run-in.

Stay in Touch

If the person doesn’t have your contact information, give them a business card, and more importantly, ask for theirs as well. Make sure you follow up with them within the next couple days.

And here are a few examples of what NOT to do…

DON’T Deliver an Oral Resume

As mentioned before, a few qualities or things you have done will do. No one will remember the fine details of your employment history, and frankly, you’ll be wasting your time. Doing so will also convey that you are desperate for a job and for this person’s help when you need to maintain a conversational tone and interest in that other person.

DON’T Complain

Don’t launch into some diatribe about how your last boss was a good-for-nothing schmuck, or how the company you worked for was a joke. This puts the person you’re speaking to in an awkward position. Stay positive and they will be more likely to want to help you.

DON’T Recite

While it’s a great idea to write down what you want to say and practice it, don’t let on to the other person that this is what you have done. If you do, you will sound like an opportunist and the conversation will feel awkward and feigned. Be as conversational as possible.

In this day and age, it’s perfectly normal to deliver a 30 second resume. Everyone has been affected by the terrible economy, and so others will be empathetic towards your pitch and do their best to help you out. Just remember to help them out by being pleasant and succinct, and they will be better equipped to lend you valuable assistance.

Have a good one,
