Job networking training empowers job seekers to get hired before new jobs are posted to the public

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) February 2, 2009 -- U.S. Companies of all sizes have a hiring practice in common that job networking training can help job seekers take advantage of. Employee referrals get priority treatment and better positioning for new jobs. Often hiring managers bring referrals from their network in to interview before human resources has a job requisition approved or posted.

There are special employee referral programs to generate more hires, rules for how human resources responds to employee referrals, and often a bonus for the employee that refers a hire. Identifying job networking targets and implementing a structured job networking plan can make the difference in being seen as a solution and getting the job.
“As the head of international staffing functions and career development programs for corporations and start up companies I know exactly how the internal systems and politics work. Connecting with the hiring manager early through a referral increases the candidates perceived value and puts them in the best position.” Kristina Kone, CEO, Alignment International.

Job networking training empowers job seekers to get hired before new jobs are posted to the public. Alignment International offers “Six Degrees To Your New Job” and “Bounce Back” seminars to job seekers in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Boston, and San Jose.
