THE ‘TOP FIVE’ NEW RULES OF THE HIRING GAME
While virtually every significant facet of the "hiring game" has changed today, here are the first FIVE of the TOP TEN* NEW "Rules of the Game":
—NEW RULE NUMBER ONE—
Today’s unemployment situation is not merely part of a “normal” job cycle. Many, if not most, lost jobs simply are NOT going to return.
—NEW RULE NUMBER TWO—
Recent worker productivity increases necessitated by decreasing numbers of employees is NOT
a temporary phenomenon.
—NEW RULE NUMBER THREE—
The economic landscape has already changed significantly, and that change can only be expected to continue, with substantial, long-term implications for future job seekers.
Among many other things, the altered economic landscape means that many of the skill sets that currently are or recently were “in supply,” unfortunately, are no longer “in demand.”
—NEW RULE NUMBER FOUR—
Job seekers who continue to rely exclusively, or nearly exclusively, upon the Internet for job leads will no longer be seeing the “whole picture.”
—NEW RULE NUMBER FIVE—
It is substantially more difficult today to get one’s résumé in front of a hiring manager/company, and it can only be expected to become even more difficult to do that in the future.
Because the majority of job seekers apply to positions online, companies have set up extremely effective “screening” software and other mechanisms that quickly exclude the majority of candidates—without them ever getting a chance to have their credentials reviewed.
IMPLICATIONS FOR JOB SEEKERS
In the new decade, job seekers who will GET HIRED will only be those who are powerfully and exceptionally skilled at differentiating themselves within an ever-increasing pool of available candidates for an ever-decreasing number of jobs.

IMPLICATIONS FOR JOB SEEKERS
In the new decade, job seekers who will GET HIRED will only be those who are powerfully and exceptionally skilled at differentiating themselves within an ever-increasing pool of available candidates for an ever-decreasing number of jobs.

IMPLICATIONS FOR JOB SEEKERS
Repositioning oneself in the job market is no longer a luxury; it has become, and will remain, a fundamental requirement.
| ||||
IMPLICATIONS FOR JOB SEEKERS
Since most job seekers only apply to positions online, they are missing out on being considered for close to one-half of all available jobs. Tomorrow’s job seekers MUST effectively market themselves like a “headhunter” would market them, in order to have MAXIMUM exposure to all positions.

IMPLICATIONS FOR JOB SEEKERS
Only those job seekers who learn about and apply the adaptive techniques for avoiding exclusion from the available pool of candidates will get HIRED today and in the future. Those job seekers who insist on continuing to play by the “old” rules, which involved trying to figure out how to be included in the pool, will likely not even be considered.
