5 Expensive Job Search Ideas |
 1) Invite the employer to a round of golf: Augusta is filled with beautiful golf courses and is also famous for the Augusta Masters Tournament. With that said, many of our Augusta business owners also enjoy a relaxing game of golf with friends, families and close associates.
As a job seeker, it is possible to invite your potential boss to a round of golf
Dining is the American second favorites pass time, at least for those of us who love to eat. Augusta offers several beautiful restaurants that are sure to make an impression on your potential boss.
Find a great restaurant in Augusta such as Bonefish Grill, Sconyers Bar-B-Que, or Sixth At Watkins and schedule a private dining exclusive for the decision makers. Be mindful this may appear as a means to bribe your potential employers. Also, make sure you have enough cash to feed a big appetite
3) A billboard is a perfect way to get your message across locally. Billboards are very popular in Augusta and can also be very expensive depending on the traffic volume and location you are look to advertise. Buy yourself a billboard with a simple message, “I need a Job.” You may want to include your qualifications and contact information. This will surely get you some immediate responses however could be very costly to find the right employer.
4) Hire a “Job Finder”
A “Job Finder” in my book is someone who you hire to find you a job. They
do the leg work if you have no time or the propper skill
set to conduct it yourself. A “Job Finder” should distribute your resumes for you, schedule job interviews, and even negotiate salary on your behalf. However, just like all the above ideas, this could be very costly to landing the right job in Augusta.
5) Organize a job hunt party
Setting up a “Job Hunt Party” is my favorite idea. You simply coordinate a party for all potential employers looking for candidates in your field and position yourself as the subject matter expertise. Of course, you will probably have potential job seekers riding on your skirt-tail.
If all works well, every potential employer will know you are the number one choice from other candidates attending the party.
This probable works best for media and marketing jobs since your Augusta Job Hunt Party will revolve around marketing the idea.
For those of you who prefer the typical methods of finding a job, continue to submit job applications, attend job fairs, and continue networking; eventually it will work. |
