to a career and life you'll truly enjoy and in today's video I'm going to teach
you five key steps on how you can land more interviews beyond just submitting
your applications online and this is a strategy that I teach in my Top Notch
Resume course that has helped numerous professionals land job offers so you
definitely don't want to miss out
in today's day and age networking is extremely important in getting you an
interview and ultimately getting you a job offer but unlike the old days it's
actually harder now to network with a person in person because you actually
have the barrier of a online job system where you have to submit your resume
online and then you hope and pray that they'll reach out to you and see your
resume and call you for an interview and so that's why you need to learn how to
network online and so in this video I'm sharing with you five key steps that I
teach in my top notch resume course and to my private clients on how you can
land yourself more interviews beyond just submitting your online applications
so let's jump into step one and that is to identify the job that you want to
apply for now this one's the easy part you just have to jump onto a job search
board indeed LinkedIn or any other website that you use and identify the
exact position that you truly want to apply to step two locate the company on
LinkedIn so once you have the job description you know what title you know
what company it is you want to then jump onto LinkedIn and you want to identify
the exact company that is hiring for this position
step three search for the hiring manager recruiter or HR manager that you'd want
to reach out to so through LinkedIn you are actually able to view all the
employees that work at that organization and from there you want to filter and
you want to identify the hiring manager the HR manager or the recruiter that
might be recruiting for this particular position step four reach out and connect
to them and make sure to add a personalized note so now that you've
identified the potential individuals who might be hiring for this position then
you're gonna reach out you're gonna connect and you're gonna add a note and
you're just going to add a personalized note that says that you're interested in
the opportunity that they're recruiting for and hope that they connect with you
and finally step 5 once they've connected with you send
them your resume with a personalized message about the job posting they have
and how you fit the job that they're hiring for sending them your resume
through LinkedIn is going to be an effective way to make sure that they see
your profile your resume top front and center as opposed to perhaps digging
in the online system and looking for your resume so this is a way to get
yourself in front of the right hiring manager or employer that could be
recruiting for this position now the one thing I have to say though is you could
do this time and time again but the one caveat to this the only way that it will
truly work is if you have a compelling attractive resume to actually send to
them because if your resume isn't up to par even if you send it to hundreds of
professionals hundreds of HR managers and recruiting managers they're still
likely not going to reach back out to you because they probably won't see that
you're the right fit for the position so if you don't feel that your resume is up
to par right now then you have a few options you could either download my
free 10 resume hacks that are located in the link below or you can download my
free resume samples PDF or if you already have both of those and you still
