Chance meeting
I am starting to get the feel of the big players. Those who have been washed by power; the real big bosses who make the big decisions.
A chance encounter at a professional training agency I used to go made me cross path with just such a person… I was afraid, but I felt him and I challenged him.
There were others too. But immediately they got filtered out, because they did not go at him with the right maneuver. With them big players, you have to notice the little remarks and comment on it to show your understand and intelligence. Play the intelligent apprentice role so that they want to teach you and give you a push.
He specializes in expansion of companies. And obviously, he's “choosing” the company he wants to help out, instead of looking for a job. That commanding tone… those body languages of power. The slow and sure way his body moves. And most of all, no fidgeting of any kind. Nothing to show what he's thinking.
Sure, they know what I am trying, but they appreciate the fact that I know how to go at it and is not hiding the fact that I know what's going on.
Notes for job hunting:
Make social and buisness cards
Review cv to reaveal the whole package instead
research the 20 companies that's going to be at the techfair
Match resume to specific companies.
Tomorrow and the day after, is the big game.
