This is a guest post by a friend of mine, Adam Haun, who recently out of school found himself unemployed and looking for a new way to get hired. I showed him my latest product and this is his story about using Hello There to get hired. He’s an ambitious individual who’s at a very early stage in his career. When things didn’t work out with his first job, he refused to take on another he wasn’t passionate about. After going two months being unemployed and staying humble, he declined a handful of jobs until the right offers came around. Adam now works in two completely different industries that he’s always been passionate about, and is in the process of getting his own start-up company up and running…and he’s loving every minute of it.
Here’s Adam’s story and advice…
When my friend found out I was looking for a new job, he suggested I look into Hello There. It has been the best decision I’ve made so far this year.
Hello There is such a great way to differentiate yourself, you have to try it as explaining it here doesn’t do its justice. You need to think of getting your next job as preparing for battle. Don’t settle for that mediocre job just to have a job. Go after that job you really want and Hello There is a great way to get it.
Think of how many people do things the traditional way, sending in your resume and repeated cover letter. You’ll get lucky if it even gets looked at. You need to train yourself so you know, not think, but know, in order to get this job, you can’t be an ordinary applicant. You have to blow away the hiring manager by the way you present yourself. Think about it, if you are a hiring manager, compare a typical resume and maybe a cover letter, to a web site which contains short paragraphs about yourself, links to your resume, cover letter, a list of references, and all of your social media accounts, and the best thing, a video of yourself explaining how you would be a huge asset to the company. Which way of applying sounds better to you?
