Is Monstor.com good for senior positions in finance industry---any personal experiences? |
A friend was looking for jobs in Arizona and California in banking industry in credit and client relationship positions, but hesistant to post his resume on Monstor, thinking he will get bunch of head hunters after him. Could someone share their thoughts and advice. Absolutely correct. From personal experience, your friend will be inundated with calls to work for 100% commission positions and nothing more. These online websites might be good for lower level tech and staff positions but the cherry positions that are posted are often simply a way the company meets the criteria for posting a job in line with EEOC requirements. In other words, the jobs are already filled. He'd be better served posting his resume directly to company websites. But the best way is to leverage a personal network to gain access to companies they want to work with - school alumni clubs, job networking forums, etc. Your friend is better off networking. When you network with others you can tap into the "hidden job market" - jobs that open within an organization but aren't announced to the public. He could post his resume on Monster.com, but it'll probably be more beneficial to do a more targeted job search by networking with friends and family first. You never know all the contacts your old high school friend has, or who your great aunt knows. Note, a very miniscule percentage of resumes posted on monster.com/careerbuilder.com actually yield a job position. I work in the industry and can tell you that as soon as a resume is posted on Monster, recruiters will start calling. Most of them are looking to fill temp jobs, a very well paying profession, but not a permanent job. The way I see it, it can't hurt to post on Monster, you can always say no to recruiters. Also, I would try posting to companies directly, you may get paid more since the companies don't have to pay a fee to the recruiter as well. |
