Excerpt
Introduction
This book will teach resume writing and job hunting strategies you won’t find in print anywhere else. You’re going to learn secrets that employers would rather you not know, ones that will put you in control of the hiring process.
We’ve all been told that managers only want to find good, honest, reliable people who can do the job. All too often this isn’t the case, however. Hiring decisions are made every day that are based on office politics, favoritism or outright prejudice. Chances are, you’ve already been turned down for a job based on something other than your qualifications.
Maybe the interviewer didn’t like your accent, your age, or some other irrelevant factor. Maybe they wanted someone thinner, prettier, or who shared their religious or political beliefs. The world of work is a brutally cold and unfair place.
The good news is that you’re not helpless. This book will teach you skills and tricks to even the playing field.
One of the many things you will learn is how to successfully stretch the truth on resumes and cover letters, as well as on job applications or in interviews. Most people fib a little anyway when they’re job hunting, now you’re going to learn how to do it right.
That’s why I emphasize the word “successfully.” Too many employment seekers make common mistakes when fabricating information. They fail to get the job they want and often their clumsy attempts at deception are easily detected by the interviewer. This can cause great embarrassment and forever cut off avenues of opportunity that would otherwise lead to exciting and profitable careers.
We’ll start out by discussing the most common objections people have to getting creative on their resume, including moral issues. Then we’ll take a crash course in resume writing. You’ll benefit from this chapter, even if you tell the complete truth when job seeking.
We’ll see what lies to tell, how to back them up with convincing, although fictitious, references, how to connect with a hiring manager on a personal level, and how to ensure that the transition into your new job goes smoothly. We’ll also discuss the limitations of falsifying resumes as well as mention the handful of professions in which you should NEVER misrepresent yourself in a resume or cover letter.
You’ll also learn how to size up the person conducting the interview, even before you meet them. You’ll know how to fly under their mental radar and influence their thoughts. You’ll discover ways to push the buttons in their minds, making you the person they offer a job to.
