According to a Jobvite survey, employee referrals are 5X more likely to land you a role than just applying online like the rest of the universe.  Here's the thing: Networking is the key. But it doesn't have to be hard, or feel terrible. What if networking was just part of your professional life, like keeping your credentials current or meeting with your boss or direct reports?  AND…and this is a big AND…networking should be an ongoing part of your professional life, not just when you are job searching. After all, if only people who are job searching are networking, who are they networking with?  Here are 6 strategies for incorporating networking into what you're already doing.  Network where you're already going. Perhaps you are in a book club, or your kids are in school sports, or you attend regular fitness classes, or are a member of a church. Choose conversation over the quick exit. You never know when you'll be in the right place with the right person at the right time – whether it is for your benefit, theirs, or mutual.  Become active in your online communities.Leverage social media to connect with people you already share an interest with – parent groups, industry- or job function-relevant groups, or people who share a hobby. Engage with content, sharing, and commenting to build a network where you already participate.  Check in via email. Touch base via emails with your current contacts to keep your relationships active. As I like to say, LinkedIn shouldn't be the place where your contacts go to die. A simple, “Hi, what's new in your world?” or “Here's a resource I thought you would be interested in…” goes a long way.  Utilize your organization's social platforms. Leverage your company's internal platforms like Slack, Yammer, or Intranet forums to interact with colleagues throughout the organization.  Accept those invitations. From professional association webinars, a neighborhood get-together, a random lunch invitation, or Happy Hour with the gang – say yes to an invite and go with the goal of engaging in intentional conversation.  Connect with connectors. I call these people “Centers of Influence” – they seem to know everyone. When you speak with them, be sure to ask them “who else do you think I should speak with?” followed by “Would you be willing to make the introduction?”  How to make sure this actually happens.Here are five tips to make sure these ideas become part of your professional routine: -Schedule time. I like to think of networking as a low-level priority in my schedule. I am doing it on a regular basis, it isn't taking a ton of my time, but it's happening. To do this – it must be on my calendar. For example, set aside 15 minutes each week for email check-ins with your connections.  -Set goals. For example, decide to leverage your organization's internal networking platform to reach out to 2 colleagues each week. Then reward yourself for achieving your goal – it's the cumulative effect of these small wins that make the difference. -Follow-up and follow through. As you meet people, be sure to send thank you's as appropriate – this will also serve to remind them of what they said they would do for you. When you promise to do something for someone else, be sure to get it done – it's your reputation at stake. -Equal exchange of energy. As I like to say, don't be a barnacle in the networking process – aim to give at least as much value as you get. This will feel so much better.           -Regularly evaluate and make adjustments. Not all types of meetings will be fruitful for you. Some contacts you thought would be gold mines turn out not to be. Just make sure that, before you eliminate an avenue or person, you can honestly say you've done your part to make the relationship work.   Are you in the wrong job that chips away at you every day? The document and coaching programs offered by Exclusive Career Coaching will help you find a job that uses your zone of genius, recognizes your value, and pays you what you're worth.  If you're ready to take your job search to the next level by working with a highly experienced professional with a track record of client success, schedule a complimentary consult to learn more:  https://calendly.com/lesaedwards/zoom-meetings2

If you're not in tech, you may not be familiar with Customer Success (CS) within your organization and how essential it is to the company's long-term success. Even if you do know what it is, perhaps your company isn't fully leveraging what it can do to catapult growth and revenue.

Emilia D'Anzica is the founder of Growth Molecules, an emerging management consulting firm that helps companies simplify customer success and become more profitable. Emilia speaks about her passion for SaaS products, women in tech, and customer success.

Not everyone's like you and they're looking at the challenge in a different way. "You need to be able to influence the rest of the organization so that they're able to see the customer journey as critical to the company's success." —  Emilia D'Ánzica About Emilia D'Anzica, Founder Growth MoleculesStarting her career in Silicon Valley, Emilia D'Anzica has developed a passion for SaaS products, women in tech, and customer success.

Episode 21: It's all About the Buyer's Journey! with Chuck Marcouiller People like to buy, but they don’t like to be sold. This might sound like a straightforward sales idea, but it is something so many salespeople get wrong. As a salesperson, you are responsible for shepherding the customer through their buyer’s journey. Your goal is not simply to make a sale. Instead, it is to get the customer to a future state. Today's guest, Chuck Marcouiller, has been in the sales game for over 25 years, having worked in sales, sales leadership, and sales leadership enablement. Currently, Chuck is a Senior Director of Revenue Enablement at Jobvite, a leading recruitment software company. In this episode, we talk about the buyer’s journey. Chuck explains what this is, along with shedding light on the salesperson’s role in guiding the customer through it. We hear about some of the mistakes salespeople commonly make, and Chuck weighs in on where those in sales should be placing their focus. Being in sales means you never stop being a student, and this is something all the best salespeople, like Chuck, are fully aware of. Key Points From This Episode: Get to know Chuck, and how he became an accidental salesman. Why Chuck is so passionate about sales and why he has stayed in the industry as long as he has. How sales have changed since Chuck became a salesman over 20 years ago. What the buyer’s journey means, according to Chuck. The three components of the buyer’s journey. Unpacking the role of salespeople and how they facilitate the buyer’s journey. The importance of helping the buyer through every step of the journey. Using Peloton as an example of how creating a community makes a sticky product. Why you need to decide what kind of company you are. The buyer’s journey does not end with your sales; it’s about getting buyers to a future state. Some of Chuck’s tips on how to best master the discovery call. One of the biggest mistakes Chuck sees salespeople making continuously. A lesson from one of the best salespeople Chuck has ever worked with. Be a student of your customer and your craft. Think about how you like to buy and apply it to your work. Tweetables: “Sales is the art of helping people, if you do it really well.” — Chuck Marcouiller [0:05:23]

We also deep dive into these topics: - JobVite 2020 Recruiter Nation Survey - Candidate Dealbreakers https://www.jobvite.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Jobvite-RecruiterNation-Report-Final.pdf - The education system is broken!

I hosted on behalf of my LinkedIn live stream show, […]

Today we are talking to Ron Teeter, the VP of Engineering at Jobvite. And we discuss the importance of building a network before you need it, making the transition from doing things to motivating others and at what point an organization should think about hiring a chief architect.

This week we welcome Morgan Llewellyn to the podcast. As a trained data scientist, Morgan shares his wealth of experience from a career spanning multiple industries, with stints at Salesforce, Predictive Partner, and eventually Jobvite, where he currently serves as Chief Data Scientist.Topics include: the history and purview of “data science,” how the explosion of available data in recent years has increased the demand for data scientists, the challenges and opportunities presented by this new wellspring of “big data,” the importance of keeping analysis rooted in specific business problems and use cases, the different forms of bias that exist within the recruiting function, how seemingly minor differences in job descriptions and skill requirements can have significant effects on the types of talent an organization attracts, how AI can help organizations identify biases within recruitment processes (and what to do about them), approaches to addressing D&I by expanding talent pools, and logical starting points for organizations newly focused on identifying and correcting biases in their systems and tools.

Enough with the hollow argument about why your ATS sucks, Serge and Shelley get to the heart of the matter. Survey says…. Jobvite & iCIMS are eating Taleo's lunch. Maybe it's time to take their toys and go home? Arm wrestle over the difference between the CRM function in Talent Acquisition VS Sales. Shelley had to bow to Serge - maybe he's right?!? Serge and Shelley talk about the evolution of the ATS Lastly, why gaming the ATS doesnt work.

CodeSignal Tech Screen: A better way to evaluate your candidate skills fairly and consistently.

Very few of us feel comfortable stepping in front of the camera.  When was the last time you had a professional head shot?  Are you waiting to lose 10 pounds, get the latest Botox shot, that new hairstyle?  I'm often asked who needs a professional head shot and why?   Everyone!   We live in a digital world where our online presence is important and often the first impression people have of us.  It's time to set aside the fear and make an appointment for your professional head shot. I'm going to give you 7 reasons why your professional head shot is important. 1. Look like the professional you are Your headshot should be eye-catching and make a statement.  A headshot expresses to the world that you have an expertise and care about quality. Potential employers or clients scrolling through LinkedIn will be drawn to a well-lit professional headshot over a selfie. Professional headshots make a positive impression. 2. Stand outIn a digital era, people have short attention spans.  Your quality profile picture will grab attention.  As clients and employers scroll through LinkedIn and social media platforms, your professional headshot will stand out. Your personality and essence are captured in your eyes and smile. This makes you memorable and recognizable, people are more likely to remember your photo rather than a few lines from your bio. 3. An Introduction/First ImpressionThe professional headshot is your introduction to the world.  Peers, recruiters, people in your field of expertise often meet you for the first time online.  The old saying one picture is worth a thousand words is so true when creating a first impression. In a competitive job market, it is important to make a first impression so that your skills and expertise are not overlooked. All websites should have professional headshots on the about page.  Many companies dedicate a page to their team, or at least the management team, and include headshots.  It is important to remember that people buy personalities not products and services, therefore making it important to represent the people behind the business.  A personal and emotional connection to your business will help with the KNOW, LIKE, and TRUST factor that will make your business a success. 4. ConsistencyWhen you have a professional headshot on your website and across your social media platforms you become recognizable.  People remember you.  It is important to build your personal brand that demonstrates your expertise and creates recognition.  Your goal is to make it easy for people to recognize and remember you. 5. RecognitionOften LinkedIn and social media sites will have several people with the same name. There may be 6 people with the name Mary Smith on LinkedIn.  How is a potential client or employer to know which one is you? With a recognizable headshot you are easily found and connected.  When meeting in a public place, both you and your client can quickly recognize each other when you have headshots that represent you. 6. RecruitersA recent analysis by JobVite reported that 41% of recruiters judge you by your profile photo before meeting you.  This report was from 2016 so we can assume that number is higher today, as more and more people are using LinkedIn.  Interestingly enough 18% of recruiters view selfies negatively and admit to viewing social media profiles to learn more about candidates.  People are looking for your personality before they meet you and making decisions about what they see online. 7. ConfidenceHaving a professional head shot makes you feel more confident about your career and when you look confident people are more likely to believe that you are an expert and have the skills they are looking for.
