How Does One Indicate Readiness When Recruiters Contact You?

When you receive a phone call or email, will you be ready? Being ready today depends on who is reaching out and it’s not the same as it was 10 years ago. The executive placement industry has evolved…have you kept pace?

Formed recruiter and current ExecuNet Career Strategist Saundra Botts explains what it takes to be prepared and what it really means when recruiters reach out to you and what you need to be prepared to talk about. The conversation with recruiters is a very different one than you’d have with a networking call with a past colleague. Saundra explains in this expert from a Premium Access only Q&A.

They will show you how to weave your unique value story together in all the right places – including your resume, LinkedIn profile, networking efforts, and interview – to connect with target companies in an irresistible way.
