The hidden job market consists of all job opportunities that are not actually published for wide distribution and represents approximately 80% of job opportunities.

These decision makers can help connect you to the hidden job market. John Corcoran has been an executive in the strategic business development arena for over 30 years.
He has maintained a career coaching presence since 1992. He is the founder of Merritt Walsh Associates, LLC, a strategy firm and the parent company of Corcoran Career Coaching.

LinkedIn is constantly changing, and you should too. Its focus has gone from being a digital rolodex to a searchable networking database used for research, content and engagement. Most recently, LinkedIn (through Microsoft) is using AI to build content, suggest profile changes and help recruiters with their job specs. The basics remain the same, but differentiation is even more important. I’ll share best practices from my recent visit to LinkedIn HQ where certain things were shared with us

11 milliseconds. That is how fast the brain makes an initial decision about you. On whether to engage you, buy you, and hire you.
Park everything you know and have heard about finding your next gig. It’s all moot if you don’t master this human skill that will make you memorable and differentiated. The ONE personal selling skill will set you apart and supersede all the career coaching, resume building, and other job search tools.
Professional speaker and longtime MCT supporter Todd Cohen will be in town for one day to deliver LIVE his hallmark keynote on the “Power of Presence.” Todd will illustrate:
- WHY being present is a must know skill in any job search and career management strategy.
- HOW to master being present – it costs you nothing to do it!
- WHY does taking a virtual shortcut significantly lessen your competitive edge?
- WHY being memorable matters (hint: it’s not done over ZOOM)

The Ramsey Job Search Work Team meets every Monday morning. Networking and meeting starts at 9:00 to 10:30. Members are expected to hold each other accountable at weekly (virtual) meetings for conducting a job search in earnest. Historically, the team has enjoyed a very high rate of “landings” by those conducting an active and vigorous job search.
Based on the Lee-Hecht-Harrison model, it’s more of a project management team made up of people committed to helping each other in the job search. By attending regularly and staying focused on key tasks, meetings serve as an advisory panel that knows you and your search and can offer answers to the questions that come up in job hunting.
Help others to help you (especially for the first few meetings) by having a prepared “elevator pitch” to introduce yourself. Jobs open up because there’s a problem to solve or a need to fill.
Please contact Beth Berkenfeld at bberk2@optonline.net or 201-797-4342 if interested in joining the group.
