¡¡¡¡When Nick A. Corcodilos started out in the headhunting business 20 years ago£¬ he had a keen eye for tracking talent. From his base in Silicon Valley he would send allª²star performers to blueª²chip companies like Xerox£¬ IBM and General Electric. But while he would succeed in his part of the hunt£¬ the jobª²seekers he located would often fail in theirs. They were striking out before£¬ during or after the interview.

¡¡¡¡So instead of simply accounting for talent£¬ Corcodilos began advising job candidates as well. He helped improve their success ratio by teaching them to pursue fewer companies£¬ make the right contacts and deliver what companies are looking for in an interview. In his mythª²busting book£¬ Ask the Headhunter £¨Plume£¬ 1997£©£¬ Corcodilos has reinvented the rules of the job search£¬ from preparation to interview techniques. Here are his six new principles for successful job hunting£º
¡¡¡¡£¨41£© Your resume is meaningless.

¡¡¡¡Headhunters know a resume rarely gets you inside a company. All it does is outline your pastª²largely irrelevant since it doesn't demonstrate that you can do the work the hiring manager needs done.

¡¡¡¡£¨42£© Don't get lost in HR.

¡¡¡¡Headhunters try to get around the human resources department whenever possible.

¡¡¡¡£¨43£© The real matchmaking takes place before the interview.

¡¡¡¡A headhunter sends a candidate into an interview only if he or she is clearly qualified for the position. In your own job hunt£¬ make the same effort to ensure a good fit. Know the parameters of the job when you walk into the interview. Research the company£¬ finding out about its culture£¬ goals£¬ competitors.

¡¡¡¡Remember£¬ the employer wants to hire you.

¡¡¡¡¡°A company holds interviews so it can find the best person for the job£¬¡± Corcodilos says. The manager will be ecstatic if that person turns out to be you because then he or she can stop interviewing and get back to work.

¡¡¡¡£¨44£© Pretend the interview is your first day at work.

¡¡¡¡Most people treat an interview as if it were an interrogation. The employer asks questions£¬ and the candidate gives answers. Headhunters go out of their way to avoid that scenario.

¡¡¡¡£¨45£© Got an offer£¿ Interview the company.

¡¡¡¡When an employer makes an offer£¬ he does more than deliver a title and a compensation package he also cedes part of his control over the hiring process.

¡¡¡¡Once you get that offer£¬ ¡°You have the power£¬¡± says Corcodilos£¬ to decide whether£¬ and on what terms£¬ you want to hire that company.

¡¡¡¡[A] Consider how Corcodilos coached Gerry Zagorski of Edison£¬ N.J.£¬ who was pursuing an opening at AT & T. Zagorski walked over to the vice president's marker board and outlined the company's challenges and the steps he would take to increase its profits. Fifteen minutes later£¬ as Zagorski wrote down his estimate of what he would add to the bottom line£¬ he looked up at his interviewer.

¡¡¡¡[B] One of the best ways to learn about a company is to talk to people who work there. Kenton Green of Ann Arbor£¬ Mich.£¬ used this technique while completing a doctoral program in electrical engineering and optics at the University of Rochester£º ¡°I would find an article published by someone in my field who worked at a company I was interested in. Then I'd call that person and ask to talk£¬ mention my employability and discuss the company's needs. One of two things happened£º I'd either get an interview or learn we weren't a good match after all.¡±

¡¡¡¡[C] ¡°Most HR departments create an infrastructure that primarily involves processing paper£¬¡± Corcodilos says. ¡°They package£¬ organize£¬ file and sort you. Then£¬ if you haven't gotten lost in the shuffle£¬ they might pass you on to a manager who actually knows what the work is all about. While the typical candidate is waiting to be interviewed by HR£¬ the headhunter is on the phone£¬ using a back channel to get to the hiring manager.¡±

¡¡¡¡[D] ¡°At the outset of the interview£¬ the employer controls the offer and the power that comes with it£¬¡± Corcodilos says. ¡°But upon making an offer£¬ he transfers that power to the candidate. This is a power few people in that situation realize they have. It's the time for you to explore changing the offer to suit your goals and fully interview the company.¡±

¡¡¡¡[E] ¡°The guy's jaw was on the floor£¬¡± Corcodilos says. ¡°He told Zagorski that finishing the interview wouldn't be necessary. Instead£¬ the VP brought in the rest of his team£¬ and the meeting lasted for two hours.¡±

¡¡¡¡[F] ¡°A resume leaves it up to employers to figure out how you can help their organization£¬¡± Corcodilos says. ¡°That's no way to sell yourself.¡±
