Philosophy
- You are capable of doing anything you set your mind to. You can find the job you want, and live the life you want-you just need access to all the opportunities out there.
- I do not care what you may believe, or what other people may have said to you-you can and will be successful.
- There is a place for you, and I intend to find it for you.
- If you have ever been frustrated with seeking a job, or unhappy with the job market, I’ll bet you were wasting your time searching via websites that only show you a small percentage of the jobs that are actually available. People have been messing around with your time and career, and I am upset about it.
- My goal is to show you every job opportunity available, period. You deserve to work at a job and in a career that you like, and you deserve to find this job now.
- Regardless of how long you have been searching for a job, I suspect you have not been looking in the right place.
- My goal is to have you join the tens of thousands of people who have found the jobs they want, and who are living their dreams due to EmploymentCrossing.com, Hound.com and the other job search companies I have created-all with the intention of helping you make the most of your life right now.
The best way to find a job is to apply to every job opportunity for which you are qualified—and even some you may not be. You also need to know about everything that is going on in the market and all the jobs there are. The more jobs you know about the better off you will do.
More importantly, you need to empower yourself to believe you can achieve your highest aspirations. When most people fail to achieve great things in their lives, most often it is all about them and how they run their minds. The better you run your mind to remove obstacles to achievement, the better off you will generally do.
The focus of my life has been doing everything I possibly can to make people aware of every conceivable employment opportunity and what they are capable of. I am amazed that so many elements in the world seem stacked against the job seeker. This is why seven days a week, 365 days a year I am out there fighting to make sure you are aware of every possibility to advance your career. And, as I will explain below, it is a massive fight.
Several years ago I saw that every job board out there was charging hundreds of dollars for employers to post single job listing. Even sites that started out free for posting jobs, such as Craigslist and HotJobs eventually started charging employers to post jobs. Lost among all this were:
- jobs on employer websites that were not consolidated anywhere,
- jobs that employers could not afford to post on these sites,
- jobs in small regional publications,
- and hundreds of thousands of jobs from numerous other small sites.
Additionally, more and more job sites kept popping up, which made it impossible for people to see all of the jobs in one place. People simply had no way to learn about all of the opportunities available. Consequently, the average job seeker might only see 5% of the jobs in the market when they were looking for a job. No job seeker could keep track of the entire job market.
As a recruiter, I saw countless people experience pain and frustration, unable to find jobs. The course of their lives was altered. This was infuriating to me. It was upsetting seeing people unemployed. Our jobs are among the most important components of our lives and well being and they define us not just economically but also psychologically.
Several years ago I was in Chicago visiting a recruiter from our firm there. The company was small at the time, employing around 6 or 7 people at most. I myself was a recruiter who enjoyed my job and was committed to it. But the idea of getting people jobs had not yet become an all-consuming desire. A woman from the Chicago area had been calling me in Los Angeles, asking me to help her with her job search for weeks. I told her that I would meet with her the next time I came to Chicago. This woman had been an attorney at Motorola for most of her career and had recently experienced a series of tragedies. Her husband had just died of a heart attack while playing tennis. Her mother was living out her last days in the woman’s house, hooked up to respirators. Her son was also handicapped. Worst of all, Motorola had recently done a massive downsizing, and had eliminated her job. The woman had no savings, and had incredible expenses associated with taking care of her handicapped son and dying mother.
I remember that I met her at the Sears Tower for coffee. She looked very professional, but in her face I could see a tremendous amount of pain. We talked for over an hour and she repeatedly asked me what I could do to help her. At the time, employing normal recruiting methods, there was absolutely nothing I could do to assist her in getting a job. The situation saddened me, making me feel like my life was meaningless and that I was a failure. Here was someone who wanted to work, who I could not help. It was an awful feeling and it made me feel in many respects that the profession of recruiting was perhaps not what I should be doing, if I could not help every single person out there.
I thought of my own mother who was also widowed by her second husband. I thought of all the people who want to work but cannot, and over the next several weeks my desire to help this woman and others turned into an obsession. I wanted to do things differently. I wanted to ensure that people who wanted to work had the opportunity. I remember sitting with this woman as if it were yesterday, and I remember how hard it was not to break down in tears and hug her as she cried.
Over the next year I started companies such as Legal Authority.com, to assist attorneys with marketing themselves by direct mailing potential employers, and LawCrossing.com, which gathers every open job it can find on the Internet and puts them all in one place. Within one year I had increased the size of the company from 7 employees to over 100-and it kept growing.
I soon launched other businesses such as EmploymentCrossing.com to gather jobs in every field, and EmploymentAuthority.com, to assist people with mass mailings and self-marketing, because my desire to help people grow their careers had become an obsession. I am still obsessed with this goal to this day, and I have become both loved and hated for my obsession. In business, while doing everything within my power to ensure I am bringing people opportunities, I frequently do whatever I must to push people out of my way who stand between me and my obsession.
I want people to teach people how to get the jobs they want, not just from understanding how to perform a useful search, but how to control their own minds.
- I write about these topics daily.
- I read books on these topics faster than I can order them.
- I do tele-seminars.
- I continually work on my own mind, so I can help others.
Essentially, getting other people jobs is all I think about. I think about this goal and work on it seven days a week. Because my obsession is so strong, I am often misunderstood. But this is a risk we take when we try and do important things. There is nothing more important in my opinion than us working.
There is nobody else around who consolidates job opportunities like we do. Everyone else who has gone into this business charges employers to post job openings. Even other companies that ostensibly went into this business to consolidate jobs (Indeed, SimplyHired, TheLadders) are charging employers and job boards to post jobs. These other sites may show you jobs from certain employers, but you will only see jobs from those employers who paid for the right to post. This severely limits your options.
I have several tools for people to get around this log jam, which I am very enthusiastic about. One tool is the EmploymentCrossing.com network of sites, which is accessible to all EmploymentCrossing.com members. Here are some of the benefits to using this tool:
- Find jobs faster than people looking for jobs on other job boards, because you are seeing every job in the market at once.
- Keep your career on an upward trajectory regardless of the economic climate.
- Choose between more jobs (and offers) because you are shown every job in the market.
- Get private access to jobs from small niche sites and employer sites that virtually no one else knows about.
- Learn about every possible opportunity available—including jobs from employer websites, recruiter websites, other job boards, government sites, nonprofit sector sites and other job boards.
- Know about these jobs within hours of their availability.
- Get accurate information that is not influenced by site advertisers or sponsors.
- Get private access to these jobs, which keeps outside applications to these jobs low.
Just as thousands of people have transformed their lives by using our service, you too can achieve results. We have set out to prove that you deserve success in your career and life.
