When you network, you are asking busy people to take time out of their day to help you. So while you want to get going, you need to be prepared to get the most of the time. So make sure you are ready.
Here is a great role for a good friend or your outplacement firm: Give you an honest opinion
· The 30 second Resume test – What do they see and does it match the image you want to portray?
· Does your ‘pitch’ match your documents - You will not get a VP job if your document emphasize Director level experiences.
· Does your 90 second pitch take 5 minutes – Give them your pitch and ask them to tell you: What role you seek and what makes you unique.
· Style – Remember that a job search is selling. You have to be comfortable presenting a self-confident image.
