26 pages. I've documented every single job interview I've had since college graduation. My notes total 26 pages of in-depth conversations with recruiters and hiring managers at advertising agencies, technology companies, established brands, and emerging ones. The first job offer I accepted in May 2013 was for an Assistant Account Executive role at integrated advertising agency McGarryBowen — now known as dentsuMB (dentsu). To land an agency gig straight out of college was the dream for us S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University advertising grads. Agency life served me well, for a time. But then new doors opened up. Sometimes I wonder how my career would’ve panned out had I accepted another job offer or been granted an opportunity with another company. What if I had transitioned to the brand side earlier? Stayed on the agency side? Or taken a huge risk and left the secure gig to join an exciting, but risky startup? Then, I get to the bottom of my notes: Spring 2021, NEST New York… "a fast-growing company," "great team morale," and "operates with a 'check your ego at the door' mentality." Three years later... the above holds true. I’m exactly where I was meant to be. #JobInterview #CareerJourney #CareerGoals #CareerOpportunities #SteerYourCareer #CareerSuccess #TrustTheProcess

I help companies find great employees!| Digital, Marketing & Creative Recruiter | Recruiting & Job Search Mentor |
Summertime is here! With all the great things you have planned this summer, how about adding an updated resume to your list? Ok - probably not at the TOP of your "to-do" list; however, you never know when you may find that perfect job (whether you are looking or not), so it is best to have a resume that is ready to go and to make sure your skills and achievements shine through! Tidy up your work history, add any new skills, and make it look sharp for the roles you're interested in. A polished resume can give you that extra edge when opportunity knocks!

Negotiate like your life depends on it! It literally does. I negotiated my last salary up by 9% using this article from Haseeb Q: https://lnkd.in/gDfM8v-k - Top tip from experience: Don't be afraid to ask if you can think over the offer and reply to it via email. This way, you have more time to think, strategize, and position yourself for a strong counter-offer. Like this article, Adam Broda is always providing great advice. Check him out! #jobsearchstrategies #careertips #negotiation #offerletter
I Help Industry Professionals Break Into Competitive Companies and $150k - $300k+ Roles | Hiring Manager for 11+ Yrs | Founder and Lead Career Coach | Sr. Manager, Product | Husband, Dad
7 things I’ve seen successfully negotiated prior to accepting an offer. Number 4 is crazy. 1. Additional vacation days (2 weeks worth) 2. Dedicated parking spot 3. Specific building location (closer to home) 4. Sign-on bonus for an intern - Yes, this actually happens. Ask me about it if you want the details. 5. Five month window prior to start date 6. Change in Job Title 7. Upgraded to a higher Job Level Offer negotiation should consider so much more than just “salary” of ‘total comp’ It’s okay to think outside the box, It’s okay to ask for things you actually want, ‘Most’ companies and recruiters want you to be happy with the package you’re getting. #jobsearchstrategies #careertips #negotiation #offerletter

9 STEPS TO A SUCCESSFUL "POUND THE PAVEMENT" SEEKING A SUMMER JOB. One of the most over-looked and under-utilized method for those seeking summer employment is the "pound the pavement" method. Pounding the pavement: simply means to walk or hit the streets within a geographical area when in search for work. Two main components of the pounding the pavement method is seeking: “help wanted signs” and physically entering local business and asking if they or someone they know are hiring. Follow these simple but tested "pound the pavement" suggestions to have a successful summer job outcome: • Wear comfortable but appropriate shoes. • Wear comfortable but appropriate attire. • Have plenty of resumes. • Ask for the hiring Manager. • Be prepared to fill out an application if needed. • Be prepared for an on-the-spot interview. • Remember to practice your "Elevator Pitch!" • Be ready to be HIRED! • Follow-Up or Foul-Up! SIMPLE BUT NEVER EASY. Long Island Michael Coritsidis, Self Improvement/Public Speaking and Career Coach @acareercoach4u@yahoo.com. Limited 2024/25 Private/Group Bookings By Appointment Only.

Advice for hiring managers: Take time to carefully consider your hiring needs and communicate them clearly, honestly, and consistently. Someone I support responded to an ad looking for “Summer help…great job for teens!” in a local restaurant. They went to the interview and were told by the business owner that they fit the criteria, but “it just wouldn’t be worth it to hire and train someone for just the summer.” The owner seemed annoyed, and the applicant was especially frustrated. It’s obvious this employer wanted permanent year-round help, but they advertised for temporary summer help. Taking time to consider their business needs and advertising properly would have resulted in less frustration from both parties and led to an applicant pool more aligned with the actual hiring needs.

Why Do You Get Rejected from Jobs You Seem Qualified For? Well, getting rejected from jobs that someone feels well-qualified for is certainly frustrating, and unfortunately not that uncommon. Lately, I read a response for a rejection letter to a student who managed to turn offer and acceptance upside down 🔃 and was written in humor. Allegedly, the letter was written by the student who was rejected by a company after he sought summer employment. And this was his reply to the company, in a humorous vein 😄: Dear Company X, Thank you for your letter of March 6. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer a summer associate position in your New York office. This year, I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually enormous number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidate firms, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals. Despite your firm's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore, I will assume the position of summer associate in your New York office this June. I look forward to seeing you then 😉. Best of luck in rejecting future applicants. Regards, John. #hrcommunity #offerletter #rejection #humanresourses #findingajob #jobassistance #jobapportunity #optimization #optimistic
