Dear Job Seeker,
When you walk out of your next
interview...
Will you feel elated
about landing the dream job that's going to advance your career, allow
you to focus on your passions, and provide you with the pay check and
lifestyle you want for yourself and your family?
Or, will you have that sinking
feeling in the pit of your stomach?
That feeling of disappointment and dread
in knowing that you'll be back on the job hunt tomorrow.
Worried about when you'll have a pay
check coming in again, how much longer you'll be able
to last on the little bit you have saved, and what you'll do when it
runs out. Frustrated that everything seems out of your control. And
tired of trying to impress people when you know deep down you have a
lot to offer.
One of the most
challenging times for job seekers in decades...
We've all seen the headlines.
Unemployment rates are at their highest in decades, and jobs are being
lost at a rate not seen since the 1970's.
To make matters worse, we may only be at
the beginning of a fiercely competitive job market - with some
economists forecasting hundreds of thousands of jobs still to be lost.
With millions more job seekers grappling
for a dwindling number of jobs, walking out of your next interview with
your dream job secured has become much more difficult.
Or has it?
How To Quickly and Easily Side Step
The Job Destroying Obstacles of a Tough Economy
and Land Your Dream Job Fast
Warning:
You're Probably Headed Straight For Them Right Now
In this letter, I'm going to reveal some
simple techniques anyone can pick up in just a couple days - that will
exponentially boost your chances of landing highly sought after
positions, and give you more control, more choice, and more confidence
in this seemingly desolate job market.
You see, there's no way to improve the
circumstances of the job market. You can't change the number of jobs
available. And you can't get rid of the growing number of competing job
seekers.
But, you can
change how you approach the market. You can figure out what elements of
the job hunting process you do have control over, and learn how to
leverage them in your favor.
You can land your dream job,
even in a fiercely competitive market. And I'm about to show you how...
Dream
Job Shortcut #1:
It's Not
About How Qualified You Are
You see, the truth of the matter is, you
may be extremely qualified for the position you're applying for. And
still get kicked back into the sea of
job seekers... just by making a few simple mistakes.
I call these mistakes simple, because
they really are. However, after interviewing literally 1,000's of
applicants over the past 18 years, I can tell you that most people
don't know what these mistakes are.
But once you learn what they are and
understand what really makes an
interviewer "tick", making the proper adjustments in your interview
skills is a piece of cake. And I guarantee you'll launch yourself leaps
and bounds ahead of other applicants as a result.
18
Years "On The Other Side" Have Taught
Me Some
Very Important Lessons About The Kinds
Of Applicants
Employers Are Looking For...
Hi, my name is Carole Martin. I sat on
the other side of the interview desk
for 18 years. And let me tell you, I've seen every mistake in the
book... as well as all the "great answers" to some of the hardest
questions.
I've interviewed literally thousands of
applicants in numerous industries, including...
|
|
- And just about everything
in between!
|
I've also gone through extensive
training in how to interview people. Here's a quick list of my
qualifications (now stay with me on this, because there's a very
important point I'm about to make that will help you land the job
you want)...
Certified
by two different companies in Behavioral Interviewing Techniques.
Master's
degree in Career Counseling from John F. Kennedy University.
Bachelor's
degree in Communications from San Jose State, CA.
Certified
as a Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) by The Human
Resources Certification Institute.
Teach
interviewing skills at UC Berkeley University
Now, I'm not one to toot my own horn.
The only reason I'm telling you about these qualifications is to
illustrate a point that could very well mean the difference between you
getting the job of your dreams, or
having to settle for "whatever comes
along".
And that point is: In many cases, the
people interviewing you are very well trained and prepared to
pick apart every nitty gritty detail of
your personality and qualifications.
They are ready to dissect every one of
your answers like eager college students in biology class.

Job Shortcut #2:
The Secret To "Selling Yourself" And Why It
Gives
You
The Golden Key To Unlocking The Job You Want
Despite all the feelings of anxiety and
judgment associated with an interview, employers are really just asking
you those questions to find one thing: the best person for the job.
However, the best person for the job
still has to communicate that they're
the best person for the job.
In fact, you may be vastly more
qualified than any of the other applicants. But if you don't connect
with the interviewer and help them see
that, you'll be throwing yourself back into the "hunt" before you close
the door on your way out.
In order to successfully show the
interviewer you're the best person for the job, you need to first
understand three things...
1. What is the employer really
looking for?
2. What is the interviewer really
asking?
3. And how can I best communicate
what I can do for them?

interviewers are really looking for?

The Biggest Mistake People
Make:
That Sends
Them Home Without The Job Offer
They Want
Almost Every Time
The answers to the above three questions
are actually quite easy to find, all it takes is a little preparation.
Yet most people, even after spending
hours slaving over a perfect resume, fail to put in the necessary
preparation for the most important part of the process: the interview!
And the biggest reason for this that
I've found, is that people just don't know how to prepare. You may have
heard friends and colleagues talk about some interview tricks. Or even
read some articles or books. But most of this advice falls flat, because
it doesn't come from true direct
experience.
But what if you could discover, straight
from the horse's mouth, exactly what's on an interviewer's mind?
What if you knew all the real meanings
behind the questions they ask you? And could easily find the perfect
words to describe precisely what the interviewer is looking for in an
honest way?
Imagine walking into your next interview
full of confidence, and ready to answer even the toughest questions in a
way that would "paint a picture" of your skills and qualifications and
make the interviewer feel good about you.
Just think...
No
more stumbling over your words and looking foolish.
No
more "pulse racing" anxiety to cloud your judgment.
No
more "grinding it out" for weeks on end, only to end up with a job
you don't want.
No
more fighting other candidates for the "scraps" left behind in the
job market.
Leave Other Candidates In The Dust As
You
Smoothly and Naturally Position
Yourself
As The Top Choice...
Instead of struggling and stumbling for
the right answers, a properly prepared candidate easily navigates the
interview... and positions themselves as such a desired employee, that
even salary negotiations come into their control.
I know that after a handful of failed
interviews it can be hard to imagine things working out so well. In
fact, I've personally coached 100's of job seekers on how to improve
their interviewing skills and many of them felt the exact same way.
But listen
to what they said after applying my strategies...
"I
was floundering, ready to expand and reach out to new career
possibilities but really did not have any direction until I
met Carole Martin. Not only is Carole and beautiful and
caring individual but she is truly a Guru!
Since we both live in the
San Francisco Bay Area, I really feel privileged to have
been able meet with her one-on-one and learn directly from
her deep knowledge and insight. And I am sure that no matter
where your location is on the globe, Carole and her solid
process will be able to help you truly identify your
professional strengths, be able to communicate them well so
you will win those contracts or stand out as a stellar
candidate.
If you are ready to make a
change or if you need to improve your hiring processes,
please read Carole's books. I assure you it will make a
difference."
- Karen Gordon-Brown
|
"Working
with Carole was a great experience and one of the best
investments of time I have ever made.
She helped me identify my core
strengths and skills I bring to a job, gave me a great
insight about what image I project during an interview and
showed me how to get much better at it."
"I landed a new executive
position a week after that!"
|
|
"Your $39.95
interview coaching download was the best money I have spent
on my career."
Interviewing was always my problem and now I feel I have it
under control.
So many times I would make
it from the top 50 to the top 3 and never make it to the
chosen one. I am now interviewing again due to a company
re-organization and am confident on my interviewing skills.
Thank you - Walter D.

|
"This
job is going to make me so happy and content, it's
unbelievable."
"Dear Carole,
I can't thank you
personally enough. I loved your workbook and will
keep it all filled in and hope and pray I don't need to
use it in the near future. This job is going to make me
so happy and content, it's unbelievable.
I am impressed that we're
around the same age, and like you said, it's never too
late to change and better yourself, so to speak.
Thanks for making me feel the same way."
- Kathy Roberts

|
"I've
aced my interview because I followed Ms. Martin's
advice."
"I've been through many
interviews. This workbook hits all of the important
points, reviews the obvious and gives new tips and ideas
to help get the job. I've aced my interview because I
followed Ms. Martin's advice. I like her real life
scenarios and humor. I highly recommend the book."
- Kathy, Colorado US
|
|
"Not
only did I find a position, but it looks like this may
be the best fit."
"Thank you so much for all
the expert help you have given me to make it possible
for me to reach my goal. Not only did I find a
position, but it is looking like this may be the best
fit I could have had in my working career. I am so
happy and contented in my work and so thankful to you
for the help you have given me to get here. Thank you
for all your expert advise and help."
- Susan L. - Cornell
University

|
|
"Not
even 45 minutes later I was offered the position!"
I
interviewed with the head of Human Resources and then
with the CEO. When the money issue came up, I followed
your advice. Not even 45 minutes later the Head of Human
Resources phoned me and stated that they are offering me
the position for the VP of sales. The package was way
more than I was hoping for. Thanks for your wonderful
program! It was honestly the best money I have ever
spent!"
- D.J.S
|
|
|
"I
was very prepared for all questions that they asked me,
and look…it paid off!"
So I'm writing to say thank
you! You really prepared me for the interview and the
points and situations, etc that we worked on were
perfect! I was very prepared for all questions that they
asked me, and look…it paid off! So anyway, I was just
writing to say thank you for your time and services.
That was money well spent!! (How often do you get to say
that??)

"There’s
no better coach than Carole Martin"
“Although candidates tend
to spend far more time preparing their resumes than
preparing for interviews, resumes only get your foot in
the door. Interviews get you hired. Candidates must
prepare themselves for interviews like they’re
professional athletes preparing for an important game.
And there’s no better coach than Carole Martin, The
Interview Coach.”

How to Ace Your Interview (MP3) - a 2-hour interview I recently
gave, where I answered questions about some of the "behind-the-scenes"
rarely-talked-about tips known only to top level candidates and
interviewers themselves. Take a look at some of the "golden
nuggets" of advice you'll uncover...
 |
How to eliminate nervousness and stress, before and during
the interview. Going on an interview can be extremely
nerve-racking! Make sure you use this tip to go from being a
jittery job applicant to a cool, confident candidate, faster
than you can say, "I'm hired!"
|
 |
How to mentally prepare for the interview, before it even
starts. Implement this useful strategy before your
interview and you'll be ahead of the game!
|
 |
The first thing you MUST do before going on a job interview.
Warning: if you've been called in for a job interview, make
sure you do this first before anything else!
|
 |
The proper way to dress for your interview. Learn
exactly what you should wear to your interview, and how you
should be groomed.
|
 |
How to research a company before going on a job interview.
Learn why research is really SO important, and how to do it
the right way!
|
 |
How to answer questions without sounding scripted.
Rehearsing your answers before your interview is an absolute
MUST, but come off sounding scripted, and you will blow your
chances of getting the job!
|
 |
What you should NEVER bring with you to your interview.
Bring this your interview, and you might as well say to the
interviewer, "Please don't hire me!" because you won't be!
|
 |
How long you should take to answer the interviewer's
questions. Don't take enough time and you'll come off as
being boring and stiff. Take too long and you'll put your
interviewer to sleep! Learn exactly how long your answers
should be in order to be most effective!
|
 |
How to let your interviewer know that you REALLY want the
job, without coming across as desperate or needy.
Communicate in the right way that your REALLY want the job,
and you'll probably get it. But do it the wrong way, and
you're headed for disaster!
|
 |
The proper etiquette for an interview that during a meal.
Learn why Carole thinks this type of interview is a trap.
Discover how sidestep the challenges of having an interview
during a meal - and come out a winner!
|
 |
The differences between behavioral and situational
questions, and how to answer both types. These two types
of questions are completely different, and if you
don't understand the purpose of each type, and know exactly
how you should answer each one, your chances of getting the
job will plummet!
