or \u00a0&#8221; I can&#8217;t believe you don&#8217;t get me that interview, you and I both know \u00a0I can do the job&#8230; &#8221; or &#8221; you know I&#8217;ve been an excellent performer and I am an excellent employee, if you just get me in front of them, I&#8217;ll get the job&#8230; &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most job seekers simply don&#8217;t have realized that hiring authorities are looking to hire people with experience in exactly what they do &#8230; with a documentable, provable track record &#8230; and there are so many qualified candidates available to \u00a0hiring authorities, that \u00a0they don&#8217;t have to hire even the &#8221; best athlete &#8220;&#8230;they have available to them at a phenomenal number,\u00a0a wealth of well qualified candidates who can<em> prove<\/em> they have experience in what the employer is looking to do<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a big difference between being able to do the job and being able to get the job&#8230; they&#8217;re almost two different issues&#8230; most job \u00a0seekers need to be aware that in today&#8217;s job\u00a0market, with employers still operating under doubt, uncertainty and fear, \u00a0they&#8217;re going to hire a candidate with as much experience and background as they can find&#8230; they aren&#8217;t willing to take any risks<\/p>\n<p>Job seekers have \u00a0no idea how stiff their competition is &#8230; they look at a job posting and think, &#8220;well certainly I can do the job&#8230; &#8221; and maybe they can &#8230; but it&#8217;s not likely they&#8217;ll get the chance simply because there are other \u00a0candidates available with documentable\u00a0\u00a0and verifiable experience in what the hiring authority is looking to do&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So, the next time you see a job posting and you think, &#8221; I know I can do that job&#8221; realized that a hring authority is looking for somebody with as much exact experience in what they do as they can get and in this market, they can find it &#8230; and, yes, even when your experience fits exactly what the hiring authority is looking for, you&#8217;re competing with at least five others that have the same kind of background and track record<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>we hear that least three or four times a day&#8230;&#8221;
