Exposed Secrets

April 18th, 2008 · No Comments

It is very often that the best things happen to us when we least expect them. And even though you may be happy with how things are going in your life, you wouldn’t shrug off the change to be even happier. And there are not very many times in life when things will just be handed to you. But I know one way in which they can.

 

Until recently, the job you had was the job you had until you started looking for a new one. And why would you do that if you were happy with what you had? You wouldn’t. But what if you were just content? Wouldn’t you jump at the chance to take a job that was just perfect for you? And isn’t it true that you could use a little extra cash here and there? Oh, that’s right. You can.

 

Http://www.applicanttree.com/ is a website designed for pretty much everyone. Those looking for a job and those who already have one. When you were looking for a job, you may have used a job board where your résumé was displayed for any company to see. You may have gotten tons of emails for positions that had nothing to do with your skills and background. When you finally found a job, you probably didn’t even think to remove your résumé, so it was sitting out there with all of your information. That is not good!

 

So how is Applicant Tree different? In a lot of ways. For starters, companies can only see your basic qualifications and résumé. If they are interested, then they pay to see your contact info. The best part about that is you get half of what they pay, which is based on your experience and qualifications. So if you are ranked say, 30, Applicant Tree would get fifteen dollars and you would get fifteen dollars— you’re the product here, so why not?

 

Here’s the breakdown: you potentially get paid for five minutes of uploading your résumé and filling out an application. Companies have to pay you essentially to send you job openings, which cuts out the mass marketing technique that some companies use. That also means that while you may be just fine with the job you have, you could potentially be sent your dream job without even having to look for it. You’re information is not out there for anyone and everyone to see. And the best part of all? It’s free!

 

Understandably you may be skeptical and untrusting. Here is a link to the press release that caught my eye in the first place: http://www.prlog.org/10063836-new-internet-service-reduces-recruitment-costs-for-employers.html. Good luck!
