JOB CLUB NEW JOB OPPORTUNITIES

6 December 2011

There are 18 alternative ways of looking for work, as we have seen; but unfortunately, these alternatives were not all created equal. Some methods of hunting for jobs have a pretty good track record, and therefore will repay you for time spent pursuing them.

But other methods have a pretty poor track record, and you can waste a lot of time, and energy, on them, with no results, if you’re not careful.

So, this is all about conservation of energy…your energy.

The lesson from all this is: don’t waste your time or energy on the least effective job hunting methods, unless you’re one of these people who like to bet against the odds, the bigger the better.

You will notice that some of our country’s favorite jobs hunting strategies are on the list of least effective. I was as surprised as you.

THE FIVE WORST WAYS TO LOOK FOR A JOBOnly a 4 to 10% Success Rate

Looking for employers’ job-postings on the Internet. Yeah, I know, you’re somewhere between surprised and shocked at this finding. I was too. For now, we are talking about the Internet in just one of its capacities: as a place where job hunters can find jobs, whether through posting their resume, or looking for employers’ job postings, working through social media, websites, Twitter, or blogs.

The question is how helpful is this use of the Internet, and this use only?

The answer is: well, that depends.

JOBHUNTING METHODS WERE NOT CREATED

EQUAL

THE FIVE WORST WAYS TO LOOK FOR A JOB

You will hear stories of job hunters who have successfully used the Internet to find a job. The stories are very impressive. Here are some examples.

A jobseeker, a systems administrator in Taos, New Mexico, who wanted to move to San Francisco, posted his resume at 10 p.m. on a Monday night, on a San Francisco online bulletin board (Craigslist.org). By Wednesday morning he had over seventy responses from employers. Again, a marketing professional developed her resume following guidance she found on the Internet, posted it to two advertised positions she found there, and within seventy-two hours of posting her electronic resume, both firms contacted her, and she is now working for one of them. I get letters about this, too. “In May I was very unexpectedly laid off from a company I was with for five years. I did 100 percent of my job search and research via the Internet. I found all my leads online, sent all my resumes via e-mail, and had about a 25 percent response rate that actually led to a phone interview or a face-to-face interview.

It was a software company that laid me off, and I am [now] going to work for a publishing company, a position I found online.” And: “Thanks to the Internet, I found what I believe to be the ideal job in [just] eight weeks—a great job with a great company and great opportunities.…”

So we see the Internet can do a marvelous job of making it possible for an employer and a job hunter to get together, in a way that was rarely possible even fifteen years ago. Internet sites devoted to job hunting—some experts say there are over 100,000 “job-boards” now—make it possible for job hunter and employer to get together faster than ever before in history. So, you’ll want to try it. Of course, it doesn’t always work.

Aye, and there’s the rub! It turns out, despite all the hype that it actually doesn’t work for a huge percentage of those who try it.

Researchers have turned up the fact that out of every 100 job hunters who use the Internet as their search method for finding jobs, 4 of them will get lucky and find a job thereby, while 96 job hunters out of the 100 will not—if they use only the Internet to search for a job.

Disclaimer: If you are seeking a technical or computer-related job, IT jobs, or a job in engineering, finances, or healthcare, the success rate rises, to somewhere around 10 percent. But for the other 20,000 job-titles that are out there in the job-market, the success rate reportedly remains at about 4 percent.

THE FIVE WORST WAYS TO LOOK FOR A JOB

In better times, economically, it was common for job hunters to believe that job search on the Internet worked for most everybody, so when they found that it didn’t work for them, they obsessed over the question: “What’s wrong with me?” Result: lowered self-esteem, or even mammoth depression. Yuck!

In hard times, we expect that job search on the Internet won’t work well for just about everybody. Why? Because we think there just are no jobs out there.

Okay and why do we think that?The answer: Mythology.

The common myth among job hunters is that if an employer has a vacancy, they will post it on the Internet—on their own site, if nowhere else.

Not true.

Employers will only post their vacancies on the Internet, or anywhere else, if they are having trouble finding the kind of hire that they are looking for. Otherwise, they fall back to their default position: filling it without advertising it. This creates what we might call an underground job-market, which historically has been called the “hidden job market.”

Because of this mythology, job hunters think that if there are no postings, there are no jobs available. Not true. The vacancies have just gone underground. Only a 7% Success Rate----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Posting or mailing out your resume to employers.

This job search method apparently has about a 7 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 job hunters who use only this search method, 7 will get lucky, and find a job thereby; 93 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only resumes searching for those vacancies that are out there.

This comes as a shock to most job hunters. Everyone and his brother tell us: a good resume will get you a job. It’s virtually an article of faith among the unemployed.

Why does everyone keep telling us this, if it’s not true?

Oh, why did everyone entrust their money to Bernie Madoff? Or why did so many people buy those incredibly risky financial instruments that led to the Recession? You tell me.

Posting or mailing out your resume to employers.

Resumes make you feel like they’re out there, working for you. They make you feel as though you’re really doing something about your job hunt.

But in fact they may be moribund or comatose. That is, they may not be getting read, at all, even when posted on an employer’s own website.

As for posting on general sites, well, they won’t tell you their success rate, but back before this curtain of silence fell, Pete Weddle, an expert on recruiting, got some resume sites on the Internet to tell him how many employers actually looked at the resumes on their sites at that time.

Sit down while I tell you the news from back then: A site that had 85,000 resumes posted; only 850 employers looked at any of those resumes in the previous three months before the survey.

Another site with 59,283 resumes posted, only 1,366 employers looked at any, in the previous three months. Another site with 40,000 resumes, only 400 employers in three months. A site with 30,000 resumes, only 15 employers looked in, during the previous three months. So, you post your resume on the Internet, confident that employers are reading them, when—in a depressing number of cases—nobody is. Some employers, in fact, hate resumes (I kid you not).

So many lies, on so many resumes. Or at least exaggeration and distortion of job hunters’ actual experience and knowledge. As much as 82 percent of the time, according to some experts. Anyway, the success rate is sad. And actually I’m being generous here with my reported percentage. One study suggested that outside the Internet only 1 out of 1,470 resumes actually resulted in a job.

Another study said the figure was even worse: one job offer for every 1,700 resumes floating around out there. We do not know what the odds are if you post your resume on the Internet. We do know that once you post your resume on the Internet, it gets copied quickly by “spiders” from other sites, and you can never remove it completely from the Internet.

There are reportedly at least 40,000,000 resumes floating around out there in the ether, like lost ships on the Sargasso Sea. No one’s bothered to try to count how many of those 40,000,000 actually turned up a job for the job hunter. Only a 7% Success Rate

Answering ads in professional or trade journals, appropriate to your field

This search method, like the one above, apparently has about a 7 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 job hunters who use only this search method, 7 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 93 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this method to search for the vacancies that are out there. Only a 5 to 24% Success Rate---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answering local newspaper ads

This search method apparently has about a 5 to 24 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 job hunters who use only this search method, between 5 and 24 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 76 to 95 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this method to search for the vacancies that are out there.

The fluctuation between 5 percent and 24 percent is due to the level of salary that is being sought; the higher the salary being sought, the fewer job hunters who are able to find a job using only this search method.) Only a 5 to 28% Success Rate---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Going to private employment agencies or search firms for help.

This method apparently has about a 5 to 28 percent success rate—again depending on the level of salary that is being sought.

Which is to say, out of every 100 job hunters who use only this method, between 5 and 28 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 72 to 95 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this method to search for those vacancies that are out there?

The range is for the same reason as noted in #4. It is of interest that the success rate of this method apparently has raised slightly in recent years, in the case of women but not of men: before the recession, 27.8 percent of female job hunters found a job within two months, by going to private employment agencies.)

Other Job Hunting Methods in the Least Effective Category:

For the sake of completeness we should note that there are at least four other methods for trying to find jobs, that technically fall into this category of Worst Ways.

Other Job Hunting Methods in the Least Effective Category:

Those four are:

Going to places where employers pick out workers, such as union halls This apparently has about an 8 percent success rate. (Only 11.9 percent of U.S. workers are union members,3 but it is claimed that those who do have access to a union hiring hall, have a 22 percent success rate. What is not stated, however, is how long it takes to get a job at the hall, and how short-lived such a job may be; in the trades it’s often just a few days.) Taking a civil service examination This apparently has about a 12 percent success rate.

Asking a former teacher or professor for job-leads. This also has about a 12 percent success rate. Going to the state or federal employment service office. This apparently has about a 14 percent success rate.

THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO HUNT FOR A JOBOkay, so much for the apparently least effective ways to hunt for the vacancies that are out there. But now, let’s look at the other side of the coin. What are the job hunting methods that have a better payoff, for the time and energy you invest in them? Here are some educated guesses about the five best: 33% Success Rate

Asking for job-leads from: family members, friends, people in the community, and staff at career centers— especially at your local community college or the high school or college where you graduated. You ask them one simple question: do you know of any job vacancies at the place where you work—or elsewhere? This search method apparently has about a 33 percent success rate.

That is, out of every 100 people who use this search method, 33 will get lucky, and find a job thereby; 67 job hunters will not—if they use only this method to search for those vacancies that are out there.

THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO HUNT FOR A JOB

Whoa! This is one of the five best ways to look for a job? Well, yes; it’s all relative. But to put things in perspective, do note that this method’s success rate is almost five times higher than the success rate for resumes. In other words, by asking for job-leads from your family and friends, you have an almost five times better chance of finding a job, than if you had just sent out your resume. 47% Success Rate

Knocking on the door of any employer, factory, or office that interests you, whether they are known to have a vacancy or not. (LOCALIZED JOB SEARCH)This search method apparently has anywhere up to a 47 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 people who use only this search method, 47 will get lucky, and find a job thereby; 53 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this one method to search for work.

But again, for perspective, note that by going face-to-face you have an almost seven times better chance of finding a job, than if you had just sent out your resume. 65% Success Rate

By yourself, using the index to your phone book’s Yellow Pages to identify subjects or fields of interest to you in the town or city where you want to work, and then calling up or visiting the employers listed in that field, to ask if they are hiring for the type of position you can do, and do well. This method apparently has about a 65 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 job hunters or career-changers that use only this search method, 65 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 35 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this one method to search for them.

For perspective, however, note that by doing targeted phone calls by yourself, you have a nine times better chance of finding a job, than if you had just sent out your resume. 70% Success Rate

In a group with other job hunters, a kind of “job-club” or “job support group,” using the phone book’s Yellow Pages to identify subjects or fields of interest to you in the town or city where you are, and then calling up or visiting the employers listed in that field, to ask if they are hiring for the type of position you can do, and do well. This method is the same as the previous method, except here you work in a group and you choose a partner to work with in identifying job-leads.

Moreover, you share with the rest of the group what kind of job you are looking for. This method apparently has at best a 70 percent success rate. That is, out of every 100 job hunters or career-changers that use only this search method, 70 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 30 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this one method to search for them.

THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO HUNT FOR A JOB

For perspective, however, note that by doing targeted phone calls with a group to support you, you have an almost ten times better chance of finding a job, than if you had just sent out your resume. Why does this method work better than doing it alone?

Well, let’s say you’re in a job-club that has 48 other members. Once you tell them what you’re looking for, you get an extra 48 pairs of eyes looking on your behalf, and an extra 48 pairs of ears listening on your behalf—all the time that they are out there looking for job-leads themselves.

Note: the success rate for this approach has declined precipitously. Nathan Azrin invented this method back in 1973. It had an 84 to 92 percent success rate; but there are virtually no “job-clubs” today that follow his model, and there’s the problem.

Azrin’s job-club was all about action, calling for the job-club to meet every single weekday, all day, doing phoning with partners in the morning, and going out and calling upon employers every afternoon.

Most groups that call themselves “job-clubs” today are only shadows of the Azrin model, and may more accurately be described as “job support groups.” They tend to meet once weekly at best, for just two or three hours at a time, and devote their meetings to inspiration, pep talks, and exchanging job-leads; but the actual job hunt occurs outside the group meeting. As a result, the success rate is as low as 10 percent.

His detailed manual describing exactly how to do this has been out of print for years; but the desperate (and well-off) can find it for about $100 at alibris.com. It’s called The Job Club Counselor’s Manual: A Behavioral Approach to Vocational Counseling. Nathan Azrin is the author.

Job support groups do have one sterling virtue, however, and that is, they provide community to the otherwise lonely job hunter. This is very, very valuable. No one should have to job hunt by themselves. 86% Success Rate

Doing an Inventory of Yourself. This doesn’t sound like a job hunting method, but it is. It was invented by the late Bernard Haldane, polished by the late John Crystal, and organized by Daniel Porot.

It involves doing extensive homework on yourself before you go out there pounding the pavement. This method has an apparent 86 percent success rate, the highest by far of any job

THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO HUNT FOR A JOB

Hunting method. You know by now that this means out of every 100 job hunters or career-changers who use this method, 86 will get lucky and find a job thereby; 14 job hunters out of 100 will not—if they use only this method to search for vacancies. Such an effectiveness rate is astronomically higher than virtually every other job hunting method there is.

For example, doing homework on yourself works twelve times better than resumes, when you’re looking for work. This means, that by doing the hard thinking this method requires, you have a 1,200 percent better chance of finding a job than if you just send out resumes!

This method revolves around three simple words: you do an inventory of your answers to What, Where, and How.

WHAT. This has to do with your skills, specifically your transferable skills. You need to inventory and identify what skills you have that you most enjoy using. I didn’t say: that you are best at, or that are the most marketable. No, these are the ones you enjoy using the most. They are called your transferable skills, because they are transferable to any field/career that you choose, regardless of where you first picked them up. These are usually verbs—the gerund form of verbs, actually—like: analyzing, organizing, researching, communicating, etc.

WHERE. This has to do with job environments. Think of yourself as a flower. You know that a flower that blooms in the desert will not do well at 10,000 feet up—and vice versa. Every flower has an environment where it does best. In that sense, you are like a flower. You need to decide where you would most enjoy using your skills, because that is where you will do your most effective work. Experts call these your “fields of fascination,” or just “fields.” These are usually nouns, like technology, finance, the arts, chemistry, automobiles, criminal justice, nursing, hospitality, etc.

HOW. You need to decide how to get where you want to go. This has to do with finding out the names of the jobs you would be most interested in, and the names of organizations (in your preferred geographical area) that have such jobs to offer, and the names of the people or person there who actually has the power to hire you. And, how you can best approach that person to show them how your skills can help them with their goals or challenges. How, if you were hired there, you would not be part of the problem, but part of the solution. Why does this self-inventory work well as a job hunting method?

If you do this self-inventory, you can then more accurately define to yourself just exactly what you’re looking for, beneath the shifting shape of job-titles. In a brutal economy, job-titles like “accountant” just aren’t detailed enough. New thinking is called for: as we saw earlier, you are

THE FIVE BEST WAYS TO HUNT FOR A JOB

Not “an accountant” or “a construction worker” or whatever. You are a person, who … You are a person who has these skills and these experiences. You are a person who can describe yourself in alternative ways.

If you do this self-inventory, you can then more accurately describe to your family, friends, and networks just exactly what you’re looking for, in detail. Not just “Uh, I’m out of work; let me know if you hear of anything,” but exactly what kind of “thing,” and in what work setting.c. Lastly, when you are facing, let us say, nineteen other competitors for a job you want—who superficially look equal to you in skills and experience—if you did this self-inventory, then you can accurately describe to employers exactly what is unique about you, and what you bring to the table that the others don’t. These will usually turn out to involve adjectives or adverbs, what we normally call traits.

There is one problem with this method, which we should note: It involves work. “Thinking” kind of work. Most job hunters therefore avoid it. Takes too much time. Demands too much thinking. It certainly is not for the lazy, nor for those looking for the easy way out of their unemployment situation. (Reality check, however: it actually can be done in a full weekend, or on six successive Monday nights, or whatever.)

Local job search is critical to your job search because many employers WILL REJECT applications from most of the people who live over ten miles away for the job…five miles if you tell them you have no/limited transportation or more than 30 minutes away from the job site by bus.

This is due to the fact that 80% of a decision to hire or not hire is based upon the factor(s) of dependability and flexibility. If you live within this range and you start you conversation with the phrase: “You know, I just live down the street…” you have overcome 80% and if you are excited about the job; you have a handle on the other 20%...That usually means: “YOU ARE HIRED!”

Consider that when you see an advertisement; you are one of 500+ people who see that advertisement. At that point the footrace is on and your odds of getting this job are running at 500 to 1. Not good odds…right?Consider that 97% of all companies in Arizona employ less than ten employees.Consider that many of these companies cannot afford to $250-300 advertisements or the 500 resumes that they will get from the cheap Craig List’s Advertisement.So this means that there are many companies who will run an advertisement ONLY as a last resort and ONLY if they cannot find someone by letting their current employees refer people, from the sign in the window or other cheaper means of searching.So this means that there are many companies that have current unadvertised openings and that very few (if any of those 500 people from above) job seekers know anything about these jobs or companies.

WHAT IF we could show you a way to find these companies and to find all of these companies that are within that 5-10 mile range, broken down by occupation or industry?WHAT WOULD access to this great source of information give to you in terms of an advantage over those 500 other job seekers…?

WHAT IF you had an actual script to help you start a conversation with any of these employers?

WHAT WOULD THIS MEAN TO YOUR JOB SEARCH?

INTERESTED?If you want to learn more about how to tap into this SECRET SOURCE of companies and jobs; then talk with an AWEE Job Development Team Member…
