Peggy -
It's too early in the process to tell if it works or not. I'm following your lead in the hope that the process works. From my point of view, I plan to judge "Success" as to having accepted a position through your process. I plan to view "Failure" as to not receiving at least one offer through your process.

Please let me know if my expectations for success and failure meet your expectations.

At least a good tool to start something different and to create new contacts with key leaders.
Nevertheless every industry has its specificity and not everything can be use.

I wanted to get into Market Research sector in Health care so I contacted about 8 managers and of the 8, 3 replied back and 2 opportunities came my way. The two opportunities at the time weren't my ideal situation. One was in the Chemical industry (which wasn't my preference) and the other was in Health care but it was only part-time.

Since I was transitioning into this, I decided to take the part-time opportunity to gain experience in this field. The part-time turned into full time which eventually landed me a permanent position within the company. I'm extremely happy that I decided to pursue your Hidden Job Finder training. All the little tricks you showed has helped. This is the most effective way to get a Job and I wanted to thank you for sharing your secrets!!

Hello Peggy:

Like John "It’s too early in the process to tell if it works or not. I’m following your lead in the hopes that the process works. From my point of view, I plan to judge “Success” as to having accepted a position through your process."

However, I am very excited about learning the stuff I am learning. You and Carl Chapman do a great job on giving us insite about the job finding business. Stay tuned!!!

I am very pleased with all of the knowledge and insight that I have received with this system. My biggest disapointment is with regard to the changes that Linked in has implemented and it has made the system alittle more time consuming. The system claims that 100 managers can be reached in 2 hours. The new methods take twice that long, but still a very helpful system. Thank You

I am a little disappointed- I recall during the webinar hearing that I woudl be able to download the modules and listen in the car- but now that I have them, that does not seem possible. That would be a welcomed improvement! As well as being able to scan through the long ones and not listen straight through.

Hi Peggy,
I can't swear it is the right approach until I land that dream job, but you have made me into a believer. I am convinced that this will work, because you explained so well why it will work. I realized I haven't been pursuing my dream job because I didn't think it was possible to find it. After one week with HJF I believe that job is out there, and I'm going to find it!

Peggy, thanks for the reminder to post a rating. Like some others above, it's just a bit early for me to report success, since I just started the effort.

Having said that, I find the program well organized and very helpful. It's doing exactly what you advertised and I'm well on my way to success.

My comments for improvement? Frankly, I'd say that you're assuming (always dangerous!!) that buyers of the HJF program are all "beginners" in this type of effort. So my recommendation is to to at least post an "advanced" module that skips some of the "how to" info and really get into the meat of the issue. An example of this is my case: I have the need to find and sort for "Presidents & CEO's" under job title. This is a bit more tricky, so an advanced module would be helpful.

Your customer service is outstanding. I've always received an almost immediate response to my questions directly from you or Carl. This is very much appreciated.

I strongly recommend this program. I truly believe that over 90% of actual job seekers (not recruiters) don't know how to use LinkedIN; the HJF program certainly answers the question!

This approach does help. It is the approach my uncle taught me back in the 70's when there was not much HR or Personnel, as we used to call them.

Hi Peggy & Carl:

It has been an exciting experience using the HJF system once I completed setting-up my profile on LinkedIn.

As a matter of fact, prior to completing my profile, I had been discussing a position with a recruiter and could not get my foot in the door. But, the day after I set-up my profile per the HJF instructions, the same recruiting company (different rep)coincidently contacted me offering two positions that day and a phone interview the next day, which was successful and they offered either one of the positions on the spot. I told them, "I needed to think about it" & they are now patiently awaiting my response. We have talked almost everyday for the last week negotiating SALARY! That was a non-issue before...

Now, the shoe is on the other foot. I know how powerful & how much leverage the Hidden Job Finder will be once I have finished all the modules and email my searches list.

Thanks a lot, my salary will probably increase 25% in 2012. I'll keep you posted!

I am learning some valuable tips and tricks with the back door. However, my specific issue is that the hiring manager for my target company is likely a CEO or possibly CIO of a larger company. Those types are not on Linked In much if at all. So I have learned at least to use Linked In network through the groups to sponsor me into a CEO. Can't complain about that!
