For Jobs

Hunting Jobs

Many job seekers are misinformed about our role in the search process.

Our primary responsibility is to find qualified candidates for our clients. Our job is to make a match that is suitable to both the candidate and the company.



If you are downsized in today's soft market
,
there are things you can immediately do:

  1. Don't panic. Leap into action and be pro-active. Work at job hunting eight hours or more each day, seven days a week.

  2. Stop watching TV news and reading the newspapers, except to answer Sunday ads and read the cartoons and sports section.

  3. Stay away from negative friends and relatives. Stay positive yourself and don't let others drain you. The sky is not falling.

  4. Conserve your money, reduce your expenses and take a temp job until a better one comes along.

  5. If you are an older candidate, 50+, consider starting your own consulting company at the same time you job hunt. Do parallel action. Calling on companies as a business man (consultant) is easier than as a job hunter. Companies may be willing to hire you on a consulting basis first, and then later hire you full time. At least you are being proactive and doing something to make things happen. It will make you "feel" better.

  1. Get a good email service. Companies that are concerned about SPAM sometimes kick out "Hotmail" and other free email address in an effort to cut down on SPAM. AOL and MSN sometimes do not handle attachments very well.

  2. Market yourself as a problem solver who is excellent with people. Look for things you can do rather than specific job titles. When you find a prospective employer, ask yourself what they need and think of ways your talents can mesh with their needs.

  3. Prepare in advance for the interview. At the bottom of this page, are "Job Interviewing Tips" and other ideas. This is available to help you.

  4. In the interview, be concise, give concrete examples of what you can do for the company and know when to stop talking. Be a superior listener. Demonstrate that you are flexible and willing to learn new skills.

  5. Don't discuss money and benefits until after you have been offered the position--unless the interviewer brings up the subject. At the bottom of this page is information on "Salary Negotiations", etc.

  6. Tell a prospective Employer what is important to you.

  7. Show how you dealt with any downtime. If you have been out of the workforce for a while, account for the time.

  8. Above all be honest. A no-brainer, but many people embellish their resumes. They fudge dates to make it look like they have worked continuously, or they play around with their degrees. They assume that no one is checking. Today companies pay attention, they call references. So play it straight.

And remember:

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."

- Theodore RooseveltUnderstand a Search Firm's Role

Our fees are paid by the Company, not by the candidates.

Typically, when a client retains a search firm, it searches its data base for individuals whose backgrounds and credentials roughly match the specifications of the position. Then they contact potential candidates.

Use search firms that specialize in your career fields or functions and your chances of being contacted about available positions are greatly improved.Respond to Calls

Search firms typically check their existing internal candidate system before tapping external sources. The background information is entered into a data bank and can be cross-referenced by a variety of qualifying parameters, years of experience, management responsibilities, relocation preferences, designations and compensation level.Be Cooperative

Cultivating a good relationship with a search consultant should be a strategic ingredient in an executives career plan. Those people who are consistently reliable and cooperative often are considered more favorably when a promising opportunity emerges. When you have life style or job changes, keep us informed.

Rule of Three's

Even if a headhunter calls, hold off celebrating. We are glued to the telephone and run our search efforts by a Rule of Three's:

Usually, at least three people are contacted for each one that may eventually be interviewed and usually three people are selected for interviewing with the company

Working in Australia

Australia's strong economic performance over the last decade is clearly seen through its economic growth, low inflation, low unemployment and low interest rates. The Australian economy is open and competitive, aided by a dynamic private sector and a skilled, flexible workforce.
FINDING JOBS IN AUSTRALIA

The Australian unemployment rate is at an all time 31 year low resulting in a significant shortage of skilled workers.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics indicates that in Queensland, the unemployment rate has dropped sharply to 3.4 per cent, in seasonally-adjusted terms. The number of people looking for work fell to just under 76,000 in April.
In Victoria, it has fallen to 4.8 per cent, with the number of people looking for work down to 130,000.
In New South Wales, the unemployment rate has remained unchanged at 5.1 per cent, in seasonally-adjusted terms. In April, the number of people looking for work rose to 179,000.
The Western Australian figure has held steady at 2.7 per cent, or just under 30,000 people.
The unemployment rate has also remained unchanged in South Australia at 5.3 per cent, seasonally-adjusted. The number looking for work edged up to 42,000. But in the Northern Territory, the unemployment rate has jumped to 4.3 per cent in trend terms, up to 4,500 people.
Tasmania's unemployment rate has also risen to 5.6 per cent. The number of people looking for work rose back above 13,000.
In the ACT, the unemployment rate edged up to 3.4 per cent in trend terms, or 6,600 people.
South Australia's unemployment rate remained steady at 5.3 per cent seasonally adjusted. The state's youth unemployment rate stands at 25.1 per cent. The SA Government says the youth unemployment rate fell almost 4 per cent last month.
The Australian Government is specifically targeting individuals who have skills or outstanding abilities to fill the skilled workers shortage in the Australian Workforce and who can contribute to the Australian economy.
Over 200,000 jobs are advertised each week in Australia, creating incredibly diverse job opportunities for skilled professionals, trades people or students graduating from Australian universities.
Your career prospects in Australia will depend on the job market in your field, your credentials, licensing and may also be subject to other criteria.
Your method of job hunting will depend on your circumstances, location and professional objectives. The most common forms of job hunting in Australia are:
Newspapers
Agencies
Online
Canvassing
As a jobseeker, your first step will be to find out which Visa will allow you to legally work in Australia and more important, which Visa you qualify for.
AUSTRALIAN WORKING CONDITIONS

Australian working conditions are often considered some of the best in the world. Contributing to these high standards is the fact that Australian industrial relations are characterized by high union membership numbers and a federally driven, but state controlled, mandatory arbitration and conciliation system.
In Australia, there is now only 1 major central union association, the Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU). "Awards" are the legal decisions made by independent industrial organizations and they specify the minimum standards of pay and working conditions that an employer must meet or otherwise face legal penalties.
According to the Bureau of Statistics, full-time earnings in Australia averaged A$53,860 per annum in early 2006.
Australia's best-paid workers are miners, whose ordinary earnings average AU$85,550 per annum. Australian wages are expected to continue rising faster than in most other western economies.
Australian working conditions are regulated by legislation and industrial awards. It is an agreement that has worked well over the years and the current economic climate is maintaining this. The average Australian working week is 37 hours, Monday to Friday, however this will vary according to your employer, your position and the type of industry in which you�re employed. A standard working day (without overtime) for a blue-collar worker is from 7 or 8am to 3.30 or 4.30pm, while working hours in most offices and shops are from 8.30 or 9.30am until 4.30 or 5.30pm, with an hour�s break for lunch.
Hours worked above the standard working week are paid at overtime rates of either time-and-a-half or double-time, depending on the award for that profession.
Certain employees, particularly in the public sector, operate on a flexi-time system. This allows them to work a set number of hours in a four week period but within that framework it is mainly up to them as to how they make up the hours. There is usually about four hours a day (core time) during which the employee must be at work station, other than that they are free to come and go at times which best suit them.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the average age at retirement for recent retirees (those who retired in the last five years) was 60 years. Of this group, the difference between the retirement age of men and women was relatively small, with women retiring approximately three years younger than men (the average retirement age for men was 61.5 years for men and 58.3 years for women).
Many Australian employers have readily employed immigrant workers, especially in times of labour shortages. Migrants with the best prospects for finding employment in the Australian labour market include those with strong proficiency in the English language, recognised post-secondary qualifications and high skill levels.
AUSTRALIAN MIGRATION OCCUPATIONS IN DEMAND

Certain occupations that appear on the Skilled Occupation List have been identified as being in high demand. Therefore, they are listed on the �Migration Occupations in Demand List� (MODL). If you work in one of the professions below, you may be able to score extra points on your Visa application, or even qualify for fast-track processing.

Work in Malaysia

By Caroline Couronne

When my parents proudly tell their friends that I am working in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the most common reaction is a puzzled gaze. They built the Twin Towers and now they have their F1 circuit, right? My father commonly has to draw a map vaguely locating Malaysia above Singapore and below China.
There are three kinds of work in Malaysia: you can work for an international company, for a local company, or for an embassy or chamber of commerce. While a company will take care of obtaining your work permit, it is possible to work with only a tourist visa. The problem is you will not be protected in case your employer decides not to pay you, and you will be taxed as an expatriate—more than 27 percent.
Getting a work permit can be a hassle, if you are not in a very specialized field. However, if you speak another European language, if you are specialized in e-business, if you have lived in Southeast Asia, or if you speak the local language you will have an extra edge in the competition for local employment. See the local newspapers, the New Straits Times and the Star, for ads.
Working for a local company will be a tremendous experience. However, career prospects are low and salary increases are rare. Local pay is about MR4,000 to MR6,000 a month (between $1,000 and $1,500). It is possible to live on this salary in Malaysia; however, forget the idea of heading home for holidays.
The Malaysian economy is in a steep recovery, and Malaysia is becoming one of the most sought-after countries of Southeast Asia. Play your game well, by capitalizing on your experience, which will be highly valuable to companies wishing to import or export to or from Malaysia. You might be able to land a job in an international firm involved with Southeast Asian markets. What we wrongly call a third world country is in fact a transition economy, with many characteristics of developing countries but the aspirations of a developed country.

CAROLINE COURONNE writes from Malaysia.
