Synopsis

Secrets to find success in the executive job market revealed for the very first time!

After the success of his first book Super Secrets of the Successful Jobseeker (over 55 'five-star' reviews on Amazon), former professional recruiter, job market strategist and Career Codex founder Simon Gray returns with specific advice for senior executives.
Having worked with senior executive clients from across the world on a private 1-1 basis, for the first time he reveals publicly what it really takes to stand out in the executive job market. Whether you're a CEO in the USA and looking for a job locally or a CFO in the UK and looking to further your career internationally, this book will show you the way.
Wherever you are based and no matter what your discipline or industry sector, the strategies and techniques outlined in this book will put you ahead of the competition to find and secure the executive position you deserve.
Forget waiting for the right position to be advertised, by then it’s often too late. It’s time to grab the executive job market by the scruff of the neck – it’s time for you to take control of your own destiny!
Packed with real-life anecdotes, this book will challenge your beliefs, empower your thinking and give you a completely different approach to other senior executives competing for the job you want. It will make you stand out from the crowd and enable you to open doors you never knew existed or previously found closed.
Learn why your CV / résumé is not the key to your success, understand the power of the 'hidden market' (the place where a high proportion of senior executive positions exist but few rarely see) and leverage the 'executive jobseeker dichotomy' to its full effect!
This book is the inside track and contains the secrets to unlock your success in the executive job market.
Using the framework and methodology in this book, you'll be empowered to:

Uncover a higher number of executive opportunities in a shorter period of time.

Generate a higher probability of converting executive opportunities into job offers.

Negotiate a more competitive starting salary and benefits package.

Manage your own career and executive job search both now and in the future.

By absorbing everything in this book and taking the recommended action, whatever you want from your future career is firmly within your grasp!
