Dear Audiologist,
Job hunting has changed dramatically in the new "digital" world. Submitting resumes through the big job boards such as Monster, Career Builder and even Audiology Online (to a degree) can become a "black hole" of no response. And if you've experienced this you know what I mean by "no response". A no response is worse than a rejection. It leaves the feeling of not knowing and opens the door for a whole host of questions such as, "Did I not have the right (or enough) experience? Did they receive my resume? Is there something wrong with my resume? Did they even read my resume? Is the position filled? What were they really looking for?"
The new paradigm for job hunting has evolved from "It's not what you know but who you know" to, "It's not who you know but who knows about you" and, "who can talk intelligently and persuasively about you" to that key person-of-influence. This is the principle of advocacy.
At Bridgeline Associates we are Audiology Advocates. We connect you directly to the person-of-influence. We tout your accomplishments and your benefits (which is key) to the prospective hiring manager. We provide key insider information to prepare you for the interview such as, what is the personality you will be dealing with? What are the real drivers and triggers that motivate this person? What is the state of the company? What are the skills that this person is looking for? What are the right buzz words to interject into the conversation? What not to say or draw attention toward? etc. We change the dynamic from a "it's yours (the job) to try to win" to "it's yours to lose" because the hiring manager has already been sold on you and your abilities/qualifications.
Try us out. There is never a charge to you. There is never a contract to sign. And if you want to "go direct" to a company or hiring manager, we'll even give you our insights free of charge.
Best Regards,
Tom Northey
