Unadvertised
Opportunities
RLS provides meaningful information about unadvertised
opportunities, current openings, decision-makers, growth
and spot opportunities.
The key to greater access is
to circumvent HR and bring solutions directly to
decision-makers. RLS provides opportunities which are at
the intersection of an urgent or anticipated
organizational need before job postings or placement
endeavors.
The RLS approach generates quality interviews with
key decision-makers:
Reduces
competition, thereby enhancing your market value
Delivers
maximum targeted exposure in the marketplace
Creates
an opportunity for a custom-made job description
Market
intel allows RLS clients to become solutions-providers
to the employers' exact needs
During a recession, high
unemployment means you face off against top competitors
with more experience who are willing to take less money.

Spot opportunities are an important component of the unadvertised job market
particularly for a candidate who
represents the solution at the beginning of the hiring process. A spot
opportunity exists for a limited time only.
|
Since many of the specific positions
aren’t yet filled or fully defined, jobseekers have the opportunity to
communicate to the organization’s hiring management. There’s still
in-house competition, but it’s minimal because costly placement or
advertisement activity hasn’t begun. |
This
approach increases your marketability because companies respond to
candidates who show a sincere and specific desire to work for them. Direct
employer-to-candidate interaction saves companies time and money, quite
often resulting in higher starting salaries.
The more important aspects of the tasks to be acquired through hiring, are
usually designed to be first solidified informally by the company. Later,
the company fills in ‘what’s left,’ usually with postings. Paid placement
activity is considerably decreased in a down-turned economy. Companies are
reluctant to spend fees unless the hiring is critical, and then only with
someone already proven in that exact position.
Take the first
step and
today in strict confidence.
