Reach the right recruiters at the right time

Gain immediate traction in your job or board search by building connections with recruiters and private-equity firms that can last throughout your career.

 

I can tell that you distributed my resume this morning, because my inbox has been flooded with messages all day. I’ve already had three calls with recruiters, and I set up two phone interviews for next week. And it’s just a few hours after it was sent out.

STRAIGHT-TO-RECRUITER RESUME DISTRIBUTION

Be bold in your job search by strategically distributing your resume and e-note to choice recruiters, headhunters, and executive search firms in the United States and Canada. The database consists of 16,000+ firms and 41,000+ retained and contingency recruiters, including Boyden, Egon Zehnder, Heidrick & Struggles, Korn Ferry, Spencer Stuart, and other top-ranked companies.


How resume distribution works…

You’ll fill out a form to refine your search by industry, position, salary range, and location. Based on your criteria, I’ll oversee the distribution of your e-note cover letter (pasted into the body of an email message) and your resume (attached to the message as a PDF). Then I’ll provide a spreadsheet with the contact information of every recruiter, headhunter, and executive search firm so you can network and stay in touch with the people who received your correspondence.

IS THIS APPROACH RIGHT FOR YOU?

A few years ago, a colleague of mine started offering resume distribution to her clients. I was skeptical at first—not because I doubted the effectiveness of the service itself, but because I believed (and still believe) that the most successful and efficient job searches are built on strategic networking and direct contact with employers. I didn’t think an email campaign fit the bill.

However, the more I learned about this service, the more I realized that an email campaign, when it’s done right, can initiate authentic connections with the right audience.

Recruiters are the right audience. In fact, a good relationship with a recruiter can make all the difference in the world. He or she will find positions that align with your vision, goals, location, and salary expectations. S/he’ll advocate for jobs on your behalf, prep you for interviews, and even help negotiate compensation.

Yes, targeted email distribution—when it includes a powerful, compelling resume and can’t-ignore-me cover letter (e-note)—can light a fire under your job search. It shouldn’t replace real, person-to-person networking, but it can quickly get your resume into the right hands.
