A Needle in a Haystack
Perhaps you had occasion over the holidays to wander into Barnes and Noble or Borders and scan one of the quarter-mile long shelves for a book. Maybe you wanted a novel to read for pleasure on the long winter nights, or a travel book to plan your once-in-a-lifetime trip to Fiji. Maybe you needed some picture books for a newborn niece or a CD for your music-loving teenager. Maybe your experience at the mega bookstores was like mine. When there are 50,000 book titles to choose from, it’s almost impossible to decide on one. You read blurbs and excerpts for an hour, get dizzy, go get coffee to steady your nerves, and then go home without anything to read.
Our duty at ConstructionJobs.com is to make sure that your experience on our job board is completely unlike those possible scenarios in the bookstores. Sure, we have thousands of great construction professionals lining our shelves, but like good librarians, we know what we have in stock, and we can help you find the exact choice that will help you.
To that end, we are advising all the thousands of candidates who visit our site to update and clarify their resumes, so that you can visit our site and find precisely the construction professional you need to help tackle the challenges that lie ahead of you in 2010.
Specifically, we are urging candidates to register their resumes on our site, to update them to include their most recent companies, job titles and projects.
Further, we understand that if you need an Electrical Project Manager, you do not want to be inundated with resumes from GC Estimators or Mechanical Superintendents. We advise our candidates to distinguish themselves with an accurate job title and accomplishments.
Perhaps most importantly, we direct candidates to explain how their work will help their employer Make Money, Save Money and Solve Problems. We urge candidates to state clearly instances where they brought a project in two weeks ahead of schedule, consistently cut down on worker injuries on your projects, or negotiated lower prices on supplies than their competitors managed. We know you seek energetic, smart employees who can make money, save money, and solve problems.
Finally, we remind candidates to be honest. The last thing you want is to peruse the magazine rack, think you’ve bought a copy of Commentary, and discover you actually got the National Enquirer.
Come to ConstructionJobs.com to post your best jobs, as always. Thousands of top-flight candidates visit us daily, and they are interested in seeing those great career opportunities.
But they are also eager to introduce themselves to you. Some of them require some direction on the best way to do that, so rest assured that we are doing our best to tell them how to present themselves to you in the most clear, well-written, and easily understood prose possible.
Happy browsing.
