Cynopsis: Classified Advantage

 

12.01.09

Good morning – it’s Tuesday, December 1, 2009, and this is your weekly issue of Cyn opsis: Classified Advantage!  This edition includes the top job listings in the Television, Media and Ad Agency markets, professional development advice from national experts, your Q & A’s with our experts, and a summary of executive moves among top companies.

Job Fairs

A Job Fair is an excellent place to network, schedule interviews and learn about the companies within your industry. The companies that attend are looking for employees and are usually somewhat local, but don’t think it’s a sure thing. You will be competing against hundreds, perhaps even thousands of other applicants. Despite its informal atmosphere, job fairs take a lot of work and strategy.

Before The Job Fair

Understand that almost no one gets a job at a job fair. The best one should hope for is an interview.

Pre-register and get a list and a floor plan of the companies attending and where they will be located.

Using your floor plan, create an efficient path to hit all the companies you want to talk to, and after, talk to some companies outside your industry.

Research all the companies you want to work for, when talking to recruiters, have your conversation reflect your knowledge of the company.

Prepare and practice a one minute elevator pitch about yourself and why you should be hired.

Prepare several different versions of your resume and cover letter, and lots of copies of each.

If you think a job fair is less competitive than interviews, you’re wrong. Recruiters see hundreds of candidates within an eight hour period. Your job is to stand out in a positive way.

At the Job Fair

Plan to get to your highest priority companies first, after all, do you want to be one of the first people the recruiter meets, or the 80th?

Dress for the job you want, but wear comfortable shoes – a lot of walking at job fairs.

Talk to each recruiter of companies you would like to work for, try to build a rapport with them, get their name, business card and the hiring manager’s name if possible.

Don’t interrupt anyone’s conversation and don’t take too much of the recruiter’s time.

Be ready for, “Why do you want to work for our company?”

If the recruiter for a particular company has no openings in your area, ask their advice as an industry insider, on the most effective way to job search.

Be as prepared as you would be for a formal interview, and have plenty of questions for the recruiter that demonstrates your knowledge of the company and the industry.

Talk to others in the same position your are in, ask them what they are doing, what’s working, what’s not.

After the Job Fair

Call each recruiter you talked immediately, thanking them for their time and advice. Then write each of them a thank you note that expresses your desire to work for their company.

Write down contact information of everyone you meet and keep in touch with them through social networks, LinkedIn or occasionally ask them out for a coffee and advice on the industry.

Job fairs are a great, convenient tool for those seeking jobs. Following these suggestions will help you make the most of the opportunity.

Economic News

The November CareerCast.com/JobSerf Employment Index showed small gains over last month. The rating of 73.7 (compared to 100 job listings two years ago) increased by almost 6 points from October but still is down by 3.4 points from November one year ago.

“Unfortunately, C Level positions dropped for the third month in a row, although Manager, Director and VP Level job volumes all saw modest gains.” says Rich Guha, CEO, of JobSerf.

Cities with the biggest growth are Washington DC, Atlanta, Pittsburgh and Boston, while Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami and Tampa still lags behind most major metropolitan areas.

~ ACTIONABLE EXPERT ADVICE ~
The Almost Contract
By Stephen M. Pollan and Mark Levine

 
It was always rare for anyone other than the top tier executives to get employment contracts … and today even some of them aren’t getting formal agreements. But there may be one type of binding assurance you can get from a new employer or an existing boss: a termination agreement. A simple written letter spelling out what you’d be entitled to if terminated without cause, could be obtainable to many if they use some savvy negotiating. And it can provide a potentially valuable cushion if, or when, the axe falls.

After formally being extended a job offer, explain that you have one remaining issue. Say you’re concerned with being treated fairly if they (or their successor when they’re promoted) decide a mistake was made and that you actually aren’t the right person for the job. Or, if you’re leaving a long term job for this position, say you’re concerned with the risk involved in giving up seniority to take this position. Use the word “fairness” as much as possible. That word takes the conversation away from the typical severance decision.

Ask them to agree to sign a letter agreeing to provide you with six months severance and continued benefits if you’re fired without cause. Having just decided to hire you they’ll be confident in their choice, but still, be open to negotiating the exact duration. There’s no need for legal help; a simple letter spelling out the terms is fine, as long as it has the signature of the person doing the hiring.

Questions from our Readers
Answered by Stephen M. Pollan and Mark Levine

If I have changed my resume, due to lack of response, how soon before I send it to a company that already has an older version?

As soon as you can. Sending in a new resume may not get them to look at you again, but it could, so it’s worth a shot. What have you got to lose? Just make sure you call it an “updated” rather than “revised” resume. The former implies an addition which could spark interest, while the latter implies a correction.

Where is the best source for finding information on job fairs? I worry that I may be missing opportunities because a job fair may be happening close by but I am unaware of it.

We’ve never found a single comprehensive source for job fair info, particularly because they are primarily regional affairs. You can minimize the chances you’ll miss an opportunity by setting up and following a regular schedule of checking all the relevant newspapers, websites, trade magazines, chambers of commerce, educational institutions, and government agencies. All you can do is keep your eyes and ears open.
