There are approximately 30,000,000 job seekers in the United States today. Are you successfully directing your resume to the right hiring managers? Is your resume generating responses? Are you getting enough of the right interviews? Are you winning the offer or being eliminated by your competition? Are you negotiating effectively to maximize your financial package?

“Because I was prepared with the proper interview and negotiation coaching, I am now enjoying a 31% increase in salary from my previous position. I also negotiated an extra week of vacation time, as you suggested. Considering my marketing campaign began less than 4 months ago, this is certainly faster, and much more lucrative, than how I was searching in the past.” more

Our Benefits

Career Solutions has been in the forefront of preparatory executive marketing and coaching since its beginning. We would all like to believe that our next job change will be the last, but that very rarely happens, as the statistics in the article below will verify.  At the beginning of this decade it was estimated that there were approximately 30,000,000 active job seekers in the United States, with 18,000,000 of those being executives earning in excess of $100,000 annually.  Today that number has increased to more than 50,000,000 active job seekers with more than 25,000,000 earning a six figure salary.  Positioning yourself with the professional packaging and marketing necessary for success and being prepared with the proper interview and negotiation coaching has never been more essential if you are going to penetrate today’s job market, successfully obtaining the right career enhancing interviews. Once in the interview process, eliminating your competition before being eliminated by them is tougher than ever.  The qualifications of those being selected to begin the interview process are outstanding.  Even with impeccable credentials, you must be perceived as a better choice during the interview process if you intend to win enough of the right offers. Then, of course, knowing how to properly negotiate the offer can be worth tens of thousands of dollars in annual income.

According to the Executive Job Market Intelligence Report:

“Executives stay 2.7 years in a single job, 3.3 years with a company and only 4.2 years in the same industry.

Corporate HR professionals identify 14 months as a critical point of demarcation for the newly hired executive, where the excitement wanes and dissatisfaction creeps in and 25% see the disengagement occur in fewer than ten months.

If an executive is unhappy in their new position in a year or less, chances are good they probably did not have a very good marketing plan in place when seeking this position, or more likely, any plan in place at all. While the unexpected can happen in a new position that can lead to early dissatisfaction, clearly this is not a welcomed trend. It seems to us that having a career plan in place would ensure that the next move was well researched, well thought out and designed to help them achieve their longer-term goal.

If you know you are going to be moving every three to five years, does it not make sense to be prepared to make that move? Imagine never having to conduct a job search again and all because you chose to run your career like you would a top producing company.”
