It’s a great time to be executive level. Job searches for executive jobs are up, and wages are competitive. But what does it take to get executive job interviews?
What should you know before you start your search?
-Do You Have The Right Experience? Many executives have the experience but don’t have the right connections or skills for their desired role. Be sure that your resume reflects relevant work experience to land an interview with a company that might value those qualifications more than others.
-What Kind Of Company Are You Looking For? The company type may determine how much flexibility is needed in response to job openings, so do some research on different companies before applying for any positions.
-What Are The Company’s Needs? Understand what the company needs in its executive role, which will help you narrow your search. This may include things that are not on your resume or skill setlist, so be prepared to share how you can adapt for this position if need be.
-Where Will You Be Working? -The Location Of A Job Can Make Or Break It Many executives prefer a location close to home with good schools for children or an environment they enjoy living within (i.e., rural/urban). Please do some research about different locations of companies before applying and see where the opportunity would take them professionally and personally.
