What this course is about
The world of work is changing. In a globalized environment of heightened competition, the bond of loyalty between firms and employees has grown weaker and we are moving towards a liquid workforce. On average, you will need to search for a new job every five years. As a result, strategic job hunting skills have changed from being the preserve of ambitious careerists, to an existential need that everyone has to acquire.
This course details:
- how and why the job market is changing and how it is likely to evolve
- what you need to think about when applying for jobs in the digital age
- why you should never “follow the rules” when applying for a job
- how you can skip the queue and access opportunities in the hidden job market
This new reality can be daunting. In the public job market, your chances of landing a job could rest on the whims of a faceless algorithm. To compound matters, you will often be competing in a global market with thousands of other applicants.
In this hyper-competitive landscape, candidates are under more scrutiny than ever before. It is not always enough to write a great application or to do a convincing interview; our online profiles are increasingly coming under the microscope of recruiters too. 80% of employers say that they use social media sites to recruit talent. Even more strikingly, 50% of recruiters say that they have changed their opinion of a candidate based on their social media presence.
The good news is that there is an alternative to the public job market. Estimates suggest that up to two-thirds of jobs are not posted on job sites. Instead, they are filled through the hidden market of personal contacts and recommendations. While at first, this may feel frustrating, if you learn how to access these opportunities, it will transform your job search, making it far more targeted, efficient, and dare I say it… even fun?
Join me to discover the secrets of the hidden job market and land the job of your dreams.

Who is this course designed for?
This course is designed for anybody who is currently seeking to find a new job in the short or medium term. You can use the approaches taught in this course whether you are currently unemployed, or if you have a job but are seeking a new challenge. The course makes regular reference to LinkedIn, but the basic principles and approaches would be equally valid for any other social network used for recruitment like XING etc.
What experience do you have in the recruitment market / job coaching?
For over 15 years, I have coached a diverse range of people, from c-suite executives at multinational companies to university students, on tactics and strategies to find employment in the digital age. I have been on both sides of the fence — helping to develop digital recruitment platforms and employer branding strategies for companies as well as job seeker’s workshops for candidates. Over the years, I have had the pleasure of hearing back from many workshop participants who gained the confidence and skills necessary to secure more fulfilling and better paid positions. This is what inspired me to create an online version of my course, so that I can take my unique job hunting approach to a wider audience.
What do I need before getting started with this course?
The only prerequisite for the course is a computer, phone or tablet with any modern internet browser. Some worksheets and supplementary materials are provided, so access to a printer may be useful if you like working with pen and paper.
Do you offer course refunds?
Sorry, but I can’t refund your money after you buy the course. You get to see everything right away, so it wouldn’t be practical or fair. Please examine the course materials carefully in advance and ask us any questions you may have before you buy. If you’re really unhappy, let me know and I’ll try my best to resolve the issue.
Are there promotions available for purchasing multiple courses?
Yes, I can offer discounted rates for individuals interested in enrolling in multiple courses. I understand the value of continued learning and I would be happy to discuss a customized package that best suits your educational needs and goals. Please contact me directly to discuss your options and I will create a package tailored to your circumstances.
Do you offer discounts for non-profit or educational organizations?
I have taught courses and appeared as a guest lecturer at leading tertiary institutions including the University of St. Gallen, ETH Zurich, CEIBS, La Salle, HWZ Zurich and ESADE Business School as well as NGOs. As a result, I am well aware of the budgetary challenges and constraints. Simply get in touch and I’ll try my best to find an option that matches your objectives and budget.
