Dear Professional Women, Rising Executives and Budding Female Leaders:

Has it been more than ten years since you looked for a job?
Are you seeking a career change, but don't know where to begin?
Are you nervous about launching your first executive job search because the great jobs always found you?
Have you outgrown your current career path and now you are really ready for the C-suite?
Has your “do-it-yourself” job search turned into a never-ending cycle of career boards, online applications, and Internet postings?

Let's face it...looking for a job is a job! In light of the challenges we are facing in our current economy, it takes more than a great resume and the right attitude to land a new executive job. When it comes to the executive arena, the stakes are higher and the competition is fiercer, so what worked ten years ago is not going to work today.

Are You Making These Deadly Job Search Mistakes?

In general, there are four primary factors that will affect whether you prematurely abandon your job search, settle for lower-paying positions or give up on your dream of becoming C-level executive.

#1: You Are Not Sure Where To Begin

If your first line of defense is to start sourcing online job opportunities and responding to posted advertisements, you are in for a VERY LONG and DISAPPOINTING job search – not matter how attractive or lucrative those positions seem.

Did you know that more than 85% of high-paying positions will NEVER be advertised? So without an effective way to prioritize your job search activities and diversify your strategies, you will be WASTING plenty of valuable time and MISSING out on high-paying jobs.

#2: You Get Lost In The Details

With so many options today for finding a new job, it is easy to get intimidated by the steps and efforts you need to conduct just to secure ONE interview.

Between executive recruiters, LinkedIn job search tools, Twitter feeds and membership-based sites, you can end up wasting hours and hours every day.

#3: You Lose Your Confidence

When interviews aren't coming your way even when you are applying for positions that match your qualifications, no-one is returning your calls or the only answers you get are rejections, you will feel FRUSTRATED, DISCOURAGED, and OVERWHELMED.

#4: You Are Avoiding The Social Media Train

You have played around on a few of the popular social media sites, but have a hard time seeing how they can leverage your job search success.

In reality, more than ever, top companies and savvy recruiters are maximizing both online and offline strategies to find the right candidate.

Why More of the Same Simply Does Not Work

I am Abby Locke, executive career marketing architect and job search strategist and for more than 15 years, I have partnered with MBA professionals, corporate leaders, senior managers, C-level executives to help jumpstart their job search and propel them to new careers.

Over the years, I have worked with many professional women who were anxious about moving up in their career, but would immediately head down the wrong path to find a job.

They would depend heavily on the Internet as a safe route for new opportunities and often send their resumes out in volume to companies and executive recruiters just “hoping to get a hit”.

On the other hand, when these same professional woman invested the time and resources to develop a structured job search campaign, they remained MOTIVATED, DRIVEN, and FOCUSED throughout the entire job search process....even if it took longer than they anticipated.

More importantly, they were able to gain job search success even in a difficult economy.

A senior vice president secured a high-profile position with a 40% salary increase within a 60-day job search.
A human resource director was offered a new job with 24 hours of marketing a new, branded career document.
A senior marketing executive had two new job offers within weeks of launching a targeted job search with recruiters.
A higher education executive accepted a new job that supported her career change goals within five days of leaving her old position.
A bank executive successfully transitioned into non-profit industry in three months despite a nationwide recession.

Specially Designed with Professional Women in Mind

B. Simpson
Financial Services Executive

The resume and coaching services I received from Abby Locke were excellent…

Having sent several resumes to influential headhunters before working with Abby with little success, after working with her within two weeks, I had two exciting job offers in hand. I was able to negotiate with both employers from a position of strength because my accomplishments and value were clearly articulated. In fact, one employer complimented my resume several times -- thanking me for making her job easier!

F. Russell
Marketing Executive

Premier Writing produced wonderful results for me in obtaining my dream job.

Abby was great in extracting all value driven results from my past career that was highlighted extremely well in my resume that made me stand above and beyond others competing for the same position. The one-on-one consultation and questionnaire were also helpful in brushing up before interviewing to keep all accomplishments in mind.

Kudos to Abby Locke, money well worth spent!

V. Foderingham
Director of Risk Management

But every fighter needs a strong coach to see their potential and push them beyond their own limitations.

You were quite right in stating that I had to be willing to try many different things (some of them took me out of my comfort zone) to land my new job. You provided me with a very professional high-quality resume that I was quite pleased to present to any potential employer.

Thanks... for making me feel that you were my personal career transition coach.

Believe me, it had an impact. When you're constantly get doors slammed in your face, it nice to receive words of encouragement telling me “don't give up”.

P. Dugger
Senior Operations Manager

I just wanted to thank you again for all of your help. I have so much more confidence in the resume that you developed.

T. Soudan

I dialed into the free boot camp webinar…listened to a recorded radio show where you talked about branding and how to write an effective resume. After that, I re-formatted my resume and it appears to be getting more interest…and I do have a few promising leads.
