Common Job Hunting Mistakes
Interview with Tony Beshara, author of The Job Search Solution

Mike Carruthers:
When you're job hunting it's important to always remember what employers want…

Tony Beshara:
There are four basic things that people look for when they go to hire somebody. They say, "Mike can you do my job?" Number two: " Do I like you?" Number three: "Are you a risk?" Number four: "Can we work the money out?"

Tony Beshara, author of the book, The Job Search Solution says every candidate has to address those four points and sell themselves on those four points.

In this past market of the past few years for every opening there's twenty-three candidates. The best candidate normally doesn't get hired it's the candidate that sells themselves the best that communicates what I can do for you. If I sell what I can do for you better than anybody else, I'm going to get hired.

And the issue of money, Tony believes people worry way too much about it.

If you do everything else right the money usually takes care of itself. The mistake that people most make when it comes to money is that they don't equate money with the value that they bring to the party. The more value you establish for you in my organization the more we're going to be able to work the money out. Money has to be put in the context of what are you going to do for me today?

And here's a resume tip…

The average resume gets read in ten seconds. And if an employer or hiring authority can't look at a resume and know exactly who you worked for, what that firm did, and what you did for them- you'll probably not get interviewed.
