Most executive job seekers prefer to make their job search as efficient as possible. Yet, many needlessly lose time and opportunities or, accept lower job offers simply because they are not effective at promoting themselves. Fortunately, the following strategy can help you stand above the rest and make your search a success.

COMMON SCENARIO: When Jeff started his search for a new executive job, he saw an online posting that perfectly matched his qualifications. The challenge was, over a thousand other experienced executives thought the same thing. Although Jeff promptly submitted his resume, he was never invited for an interview. This happened with the majority of positions he applied for.

CHALLENGE: While Jeff's qualifications are excellent, he is competing with peers who also bring a lot of good strengths to the table. From the

corporate gatekeepers' perspective, the sheer volume of resumes they receive necessitates that the majority be rejected. What's worse, over 95% of resumes follow pre-determined formats and look like dry and overindulgent lists of former achievements. The result is a lot of good-looking clones and very few original presentations that command instant attention. Why be an 'also ran' applicant when you can be an 'A list' candidate? Here is how.

SOLUTION: It is important to let employers know in advance why they should be interested in hiring YOU over other competent peers. Before you even start your search, clearly define your matchless executive advantages. Never attempt to promote your incomparable candidacy as a 'mass-market commodity'. And, don't only rely on your past merits. Remember, any hiring company ultimately wants to know "what's in it for

us". Let others fit into a mold while you make your resume and interviews focused on what makes you exclusively valuable. Your well-articulated uniqueness is truly your ticket to success.
