找工作要獨辟蹊徑 [ 2006-07-21 11:21 ] 當索尼公司被問到成功之道時,Chairman Akio
Morita said, "We never follow. We do what others don't." That's the essence of
marketing: going where others don't! 對于找工作的茫茫大眾來說,這一招也是有用的。
Most
job-hunters confine themselves to traditional approaches like answering want ads
(招聘廣告) and working with recruiters. That's fine, but that's where your
competition goes too.
Anyone who tries something new and different--but
not idiotic--will have a big advantage. Few job hunters write to career
consultants, conference attendees, media people, and venture capitalists.
你也可以試一試。
Listen to the radio, read newspapers and watch television for
items in your interest area. The media are in the information business. They are
accustomed to trading ideas so don't be afraid to approach them. Write to
business people featured in stories. Write to editors. Contact journalists
who've written articles. 不要擔心會出丑。送出去這封信你不會少什么,卻有可能收獲一份好工作。
Don't be
afraid to "do what others don't." 當然,傻事就不要做了。
