Unlock the “Hidden Job Market” and the
Jobs Will Find You! In Half the Time

 

It’s a fact… 80-85% of all jobs
DO NOT come from recruiters or job boards

 

Dear Job Seeker,

 

Allow me to share the story of one of my clients, Jeff Bills of Virginia. In his own words…

“I looked over at the clock and it was 11:45 AM. Another morning of dead end job searching. Just like so many other mornings since being let go from my job at Oracle eight months earlier. The frustration was like nothing I had ever experienced before.

“Working the job boards. Contacting Recruiters. Making cold calls. Rewriting resumes. It was like a broken record. And just the thought of spinning my wheels all over again that afternoon…

“It was starting to get to me.”

“Obviously, the old ways were no longer working for me. The last time I was out looking for a job was in1989. It was now August 2009. Could I have picked a worse time to be looking for work? But what choice did I have? I had a family to feed.

“That’s when I decided I needed to change the channel. But how? As luck would have it, I came across an ezine article, written by Kevin Kermes. I was intrigued, so I went to his website and liked what I read. As it turned out, there was a Job Search Bootcamp that Kevin was starting up shortly. So I signed up.

“What a game changer… Kevin’s cutting edge methods put me at such an advantage over my competitors. It was all about finding the hidden jobs. Before I knew it, Kevin had me networking, blogging, using social media. What a difference! For the first time in close to a year, I felt like I was back in control again. My energy level shot through the roof.

“So, long story short? Within several months I landed a job with the #1 Cloud Computing company in the world… And, I no longer look at the clock. I’m way too busy for that.”

 

You’re Not Alone

 

Can you relate to some of the fears and frustrations Jeff was experiencing early on? Well, just know that you’re not alone. I don’t need to tell you how difficult it can be to land a decent job in this tough economy.

The good news is – you can. You absolutely can!

You just need to change the way you approach the process. Business hasn’t shut down. In fact, hiring managers are hiring hundreds, even thousands, of people every week. There’s no reason why you shouldn’t be one of them.

“Kevin made me realize that I needed to focus not just on what I was in my previous jobs – but on who I am now. My life skills. My talents. My experiences. The whole package. Kevin totally changed my perspective on what it is that I really have to offer.”

Donna Reed, Huntington Beach, CA


Trust me when I tell you – it isn’t you. You started your job search with all the right intentions. You had a plan. The desire was there. And your energy level was high.

But as weeks turned into months (and in some cases, years) your energy level sagged. Your confidence eroded away. Nagging doubts and fears inevitably crept in.

Frustrating? How could it not be? You were the fisherman up at 4am, with the best fishing gear and years of experience.

But what if I told you that the lake you were fishing in had precious few trout. And, to boot, there were scores of other fisherman constantly bumping up against your boat.

Now, what if I also told you that a stream nearby was swarming with fish. And even better? Only a few fishermen knew about it… Would that get your attention?

Well, that stream isn’t just any stream. That stream is where you’ll find…

 

The Hidden Jobs

 

The hidden job market is where 80-85% of all jobs are found. And, remarkably, very few job seekers ever find out about it.

Why? Because most job seekers have been sold a false bill of goods. They’ve been trained to think that a “can’t miss” resume posted on a jobs board or passed along to a recruiter will land them a decent job.

And, while a small percentage of job seekers do find work through job boards, the deck is heavily stacked against you. If you’ve ever wondered why you never heard back from a company whose job you were a “slam dunk” fit for – here’s why.

  • The job boards do not work for you. They work for the companies paying to post ads. Therefore, they care about delivering volume – not quality.
  • Many of the jobs posted aren’t real. Oh, maybe they were months ago – but now they’re out of date. And in some cases, they’re only used to harvest resumes or just help companies who want to brand themselves.
  • When you do apply for a job, your resume gets dumped into a database focused on keywords – and not into someone’s email inbox. So…
  • In many cases, a real person never sees your resume.
  • And maybe most surprising of all? Even with all those resumes being posted, less than 7% of all jobs are filled through job boards. 7%!

So, what about Recruiters? The news is just as bad. Consider this…

Recruiters charge the company a fee equal to 20-30% of your base salary for placing you. Companies that might otherwise consider you if you have 7 out of the 10 assets they are seeking, are going to want 11 out of 10 if they’re paying a $15,000 or $30,000 “bounty”.

And since recruiters represent (own!) the candidate for up to a year, that candidate can’t even apply on his own for a different position at that same company without the recruiter getting the commission.

In essence, recruiters are modern day bounty hunters. They will get their commission – whether they deliver you “dead or alive.”

So, are you ready for the good news? Because there’s plenty of it!

 

Not only can you get the job you deserve – but you can find it in half the time.

 

I know that a pretty bold statement. And I couldn’t make it if I didn’t have the track record to back it up.

Over the past decade, I’ve found thousands of individuals the right job for them.

I’ve worked with everyone from Fortune 500 CEOs to new professionals with wet ink still on their resumes. And, time and again, I’ve been able to use my insider’s knowledge to get them the job they wanted – and faster than they ever expected.

“Less than 2 months after implementing Kevin’s strategies, I made my first contact with my new employer. And I actually have a better compensation package than my previous job.”

 

Ed Warner of Atlanta


And now I’ve taken all of those strategies – the very same ones that Jeff, Donna and Ed spoke about – and developed a program that allows you to access them, as well. This access will propel you way beyond almost every other job seeker out there – and allow you to quickly land the high paying, “killer job” you’ve been searching for. It called…

 

“Job Search 2.0 Bootcamp System” More Jobs – Less Competition

 

Remember that stream of swarming fish? Well, just think of “Job Search 2.0” as the very same stream – the Hidden Job Market – where 80-85% of all jobs are eventually filled.

Job Search 2.0 Bootcamp System is actually the offspring of the Virtual Bootcamp that I’ve held several times a year.

What I found out was that many people who wanted to participate were unable to do so because of scheduling conflicts. Also, since I limited the number of people in the Bootcamp, I kept having to turn people away.

The only solution was to create a program that duplicated the Bootcamp experience. That program could then be immediately experienced by you – on your schedule.

Let’s face it… You need to find a job quickly. Not a year from now. Or even six months from now. This Bootcamp program allows you to cut that time drastically!

The average search length for “Job Search 2.0 Bootcamp System” participants has been reduced to just 95 days!

Now you too can immediately put into practice all the proven methods of the “Job Search 2.0” system – without having to wait for my next Virtual Bootcamp.

An Unbeatable Offer

dvd box with DVDs

The overall value of this package (The 11 Training Module’s, On-line Training, Ongoing Support plus the 6 bonuses) is $5,673. And for some job seekers who landed their dream job as a result of this program, it would be worth every penny – given the current economic climate.

But not everyone has that kind of money to throw around – especially now. So, I did some research with my colleagues and clients to try to find a fair price. After a month of wresting with the price, I decided to offer it not for $3,000 or even $1,000.

I finally settled on a price of just $47 a month.

And even though that’s over $5,000 off it’s actual value, I knew I needed to quickly get it into your hands so you could (as Jeff Bills said) “change the channel now.” Not a year from now. Or even 6 months from now. But now!

You have complete access to all the videos, training, coaching and materials as long as you remain in the program. When you have found the job you love or are ready to end your membership for any reason – simply email (bootcamp@careerattraction.com) or call us (1.888.320.5013) and you can end your membership – no questions asked.

A Rock Solid Guarantee

guarantee

Because this Membership Program has already netted so many of my clients the jobs they were searching for, I’m willing to make this 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

Take is out for a test drive. See if it doesn’t dramatically – and I do mean dramatically – shift the paradigm forever. The only thing I ask is that you actually put into action the proven methods of this program. The Modules, Live Training, Coaching and Bonuses can’t help you if you don’t put them to work.

If after 30 days you’re not completely satisfied with the Job Search 2.0 Bootcamp System, just email (bootcamp@careerattraction.com) or call (1.888.320.5013) Sandy Morgan, my Bootcamp Program Manager, and you’ll get every penny back! No questions asked. There is absolutely no risk to you.
