The Hidden Job Market
Where are all the best jobs? Well, there are not on Monster or CareerBuilder. That's right. If you are looking for the next great high paying position better look some place else. Since most people don't take the time to conduct a really good job search they end up settling for average jobs. But the really great ones sometimes come through word of mouth, news articles and networks. In fact the jobs listed on the job boards are usually traditional corporate factory produced positions. And if you are looking for a rewarding career with a good company you'll need to be selective. In fact doing some research to uncover the hidden job market increases your chances of getting better pay, better work environment and job security. So think about that the next time you are looking in the wanted ads or the job boards. Trying looking where everyone else isn't.
