I have learned something recently that every job seeker out there needs to know. When you send a resume to a hiring manager or recruiter for a specific position you probably believe you have now been included in the companies search for a candidate for that position. The problem is, most companies don’t look at it that way. They are looking for reasons to exclude you. First he or she wants to cut down that three inch stack of  resumes to a manageable size. With a forty second pass on your resume, if you’re lucky, you are being scanned for reasons to be placed in the circular floor file (trash can).  Even when they get down to twenty resumes for one position, the process continues. For what reason can I exclude this candidate?  The winnowing goes on until there is a manageable pile that the company wants to call in for face to face interviews. Remember you are, more then likely, not the only one coming in for an interview. If you think they are now looking for reasons to keep you, start at the top of this article and read it again. The process continues. Should you get the job offer, you were simply not excluded. Scary, maybe, but that is how the game is played.  How do I know this, because I have discovered the “Grail”.  It may not be holy, but it’s a grail none the less.

It’s called “HeadHunter Hiring Secrets“, by Skip Freeman, and the information I have given you is but a drop in the ocean of the information you can get from his $17.95 e-book!
