Expert Ask Me Anything: Salary Negotiation – Video
new event
As you move up the ladder, it’s important to be able to engage with recruiters during your job searches. But the process and norms of working with recruiters often feels like a big mystery:
Where do you find them? How can you tell if they have access to the really good jobs? Do they work for you or the company? Can you trust the advice they give you? How do you make it so they call you first when they find out about a cool opportunity?
If you’ve been wishing you had a friendly insider you could pepper with questions until you knew exactly how to engage with recruiters so you can get access to the top-secret hidden job market for high-level roles, then you’re in the right place.
