Unlocking the Hidden Job Market
Listen now
Description
We’re pulling back the curtain on the hidden job market! It’s estimated that 60-80 percent of jobs are found through networking. That means if you rely only on traditional channels for your job search, you’re likely only seeing 20% of the jobs you may be eligible for. Employers receive an average of 250 applications for each publicly posted job. That’s a lot of competition! Conversely, there is significantly less competition for jobs accessed through the hidden market since fewer people know about the job opening. Less applications, less competition.  In short, you’re missing out big time if you aren’t tapping into the hidden job market! This episode shares how to unearth these hidden opportunities, advice on best practices, and explains why they’re hidden in the first place.
