Are Job Head Hunters Looking for You?

You’ll be very excited when job head hunters call you for a job interview IF getting a ‘better’ job is your goal. After going through a series of questions and tests and often more interviews, you’ll feel even better (maybe even ecstatic..) when you are finally selected from amongst one thousand other candidates!

You Must Be Very Good…

You must be very good at what you do if job head hunters look for you. You must have very special qualities (qualifications, experience, achievements, skillsets) that caught the attention of job head hunters from amongst the thousands of others in their databases.

Behind the scene, there’s an organization that is willing to pay these job head hunters a month’s salary (or more) to hunt the ideal candidate for a particular position. Often, the organization also pays the travel and accommodation bills for the handful of head hunted candidates.

Imagine…others are willing to invest so much because they believe that finding the right person for a particular job is so important. If you’re that person, you owe it to yourself to invest on yourself instead of investing on others.

Don’t be too eager and willing to work for someone else. You are a rare breed because perhaps only one in fifty employees ever get job head hunted throughout their career. Break loose from the working-for-a-wage vicious cycle. Change career the parallel career way instead...start a parallel career.

You Have Unrecognized and Undiscovered Strengths

If you have never been sought by job head hunters throughout your working life, it does not mean that you’re not good at your job. It just means that you have not been recognized or discovered. It does not mean that you do not have the strengths, qualities and qualifications. Look at your Assets and Skillset; and  Passion, Talent and Mission for ideas and opportunities to start a parallel career.
