Job seekers have a new set of problems today. Today, the problem isn't finding out about jobs, because there are lots of easy career and employment resources, job boards, and social media sites. The problem today is everything in-between: standing out from the crowd, presenting yourself, dealing with niche skill sets, constantly advancing your skills, developing effective negotiation tactics, and above all else, making a personal connection with a potential employer.
Although it may seem like it's every person for themselves, in a way, job search is more personal than before. You can easily network with professional recruiters, HR professionals at employers, and even the individual hiring managers. Your job, however, is not just to get through to these key decision makers, but to make an impression. Now more than ever, networking and professional contacts are the key to a successful job hunt.
