We’ve all heard that whom you know is just as important as what you know. But what can you do when you’ve exhausted your inner circle and still don’t have a job?

Branch out even farther. “If your immediate friends could help you, they absolutely would have already,” says Caroline Ceniza-Levine, co-author of “How the Fierce Handle Fear: Secrets to Succeeding in Challenging Times” and partner at the career-coaching firm SixFigureStart in New York City.

Although seeking out and introducing yourself to friends of friends, acquaintances of colleagues or even complete strangers who might be potential job leads can seem daunting, the payoff can be worth the effort. Here, experts give tips on making the process more natural — and hopefully more profitable.

Meeting new people
To meet friends of friends or acquaintances of colleagues, Janet Civitelli, workplace psychologist at VocationVillage.com, recommends asking people you know to invite you to events where all of you can connect. If that isn’t possible, she suggests asking your friend or colleague if he can introduce you with an email or telephone call. “Help smooth the way by mentioning to the people you know what they can say about you and why you want to connect. For example, your friend or colleague could say, ‘Tracy, I’d like you to meet Frank. Frank is a product marketing manager who just moved to Los Angeles from Boston. He has a great background in working with software startups.’” continue reading…

If you didn’t have the best working relationship with your previous manager, deciding whether to list him as a job reference can be tough. It’s especially difficult because “former bosses are generally the first reference employers look for from job applicants,” says Chris Posti, president of outplacement firm Posti & Associates. “If you don’t provide your former boss as a reference, it will cause concern, unless you can give a solid explanation.” Since reference checks are often one of the last steps to getting hired, it’s even more important to not raise any red flags.

Not sure whether to list your former boss? Here, human resources experts weigh in on what to do if you think you’ll get a less continue reading…

To a painter, an untouched canvas holds unlimited possibility for a bold new creation. But for each artist, the potential for something great is counterweighed by the potential for unparalleled failure.

Similarly, excitement and anxiety loom over job interviews. When you present yourself to an employer, you hope all the right words come out and you woo them. You only practice the perfect responses to questions, never the wrong answers. But in the back of your mind you know that you might end up sounding like a terrible candidate who no employer will ever hire, even if you’re actually the perfect person for the job.

For a job seeker, the blank canvas is the open-ended question. When the right answer requires more than a yes or a no, job seekers need to take advantage of the freedom they have with their responses, not fear it. But perhaps no question intimidates job seekers more than “So, tell me a little about yourself.”

You have many ways to answer, and the best response might depend on the stage of your career. continue reading…

How many times have you been asked by SAP recruiters “do you know anyone?” If you give a name, that person will get bombarded with emails and if you don’t, they will never know about the jobs that suit them, so you can either let your friend down or hand them to frenzied agents to chase. After all, give a consultants name to a non reputable agent and they will probably never speak with you again!

Agents ask because they have a bad combination going on – too lazy to search and too mean to pay – harsh but true. Consider contacting an agent and asking continue reading…

In a tight market, every job seeker needs to find a way to stand out from the crowd. What separates the great from the good and makes a particular candidate too irresistible to pass up? Often, it is one of these three things:

1. Ability to prove worth

It is one thing to call yourself an outstanding communicator or an effective leader. It is another to back those claims with proof. Employers want to know what you’d bring to the table if hired.

“Candidates who can provide real, tangible examples of successes at their current and past jobs certainly stand out,” say Western Union’s Chris Brabec, director of leadership talent acquisition, and Laura Hopkins, vice president of talent acquisition.

Alan Guinn, managing director and CEO of The Guinn Consultancy Group in Bristol, Tenn., agrees. “More and more of my clients simply aren’t interested in questions like, ‘If you were an animal, what would you be?’ They are exponentially more interested in seeing if the candidate for a position understands the value that he or she brings to the employer when hired.” continue reading…
