We’re Experts in Career Marketing for Executives
 
LegalAuthority has a team of dedicated men and women possessing the expertise to write an attention-getting resume, advise you concerning your industry selections, produce and deliver high-quality materials, and consult with you on matters such as telephone contacts, interviews, negotiations, and questions related to critical steps in your job search. When you choose LegalAuthority, you are teaming up with experienced professionals equipped with state-of-the-art computer technology who are ready to service all your job search needs.
 
LegalAuthority is unique in that we track the results of our clients. This real-time feedback from the marketplace has kept LegalAuthority on top of what works in resume writing and in tune with the current economy. If you are an executive or professional, it is not enough to rely on methods such as responding to ads, posting your resume to the Internet, networking, or simply contacting/emailing recruiters. With so many resumes in online databases (CNN reports 100+ million on Monster.com alone), it is critical to get your message to stand apart from the crowd and physically into the hands of decision makers. You need an expert to help you create the most compelling marketing documents and design a customized marketing plan to get your resume onto the right desk. After all, success in your job search boils down to simply getting the right resume onto the right desk at the right time. As easy as that sounds, it takes a deliberate, organized, and aggressive effort to accomplish that "simple" task in a reasonable amount of time.
 
First Impressions
 
Your first priority in your job search should be your personal marketing materials. Do not underestimate the importance of your resume; it is your key to opening doors. LegalAuthority's experience has shown that a professionally prepared, high-impact resume can result in effective response rates 5 to 11 times greater. If you are going to take the time and energy to conduct a job search, why use marketing materials that could limit your success? LegalAuthority's approach to resume writing is based on the study of actual results executives are experiencing with job searches in today's market. Our writers are uniquely qualified to help you maximize your job search potential.
 
Choice and Leverage
 
A fundamental mistake that many job seekers make is to go about their search in a serial manner, meaning that the amount of marketing they exert is only enough to generate one opportunity/offer at a time. What if the job seeker had the ability to multiply the effort by a factor of 5, 10, or even 50? Only the benefits of a targeted direct mail campaign make this possible. There is a tremendous advantage to be gained by having more than one offer on the table at the same time. Not only does it provide choice (such as the specific location of the company, the responsibilities of the position, chance for advancement, or stability of the company), it also provides leverage. Leverage is your ability to play one offer against another to find out how much you are really worth. Certainly you have an idea of what you will take, but having this multiple offer situation lets you optimize your negotiating position and maximize your income potential.
 
Speed of Impact
 
The question is not "How long do you need to search before you find your next job?" The question is "How long are you going to search before you exert the necessary marketing effort to find your next job?" Consider that a job seeker might send out 200 resumes per month (via all methods), and it takes five months to find the right opportunity. Now imagine if the same job seeker could have targeted 1,000 quality contacts within companies in the first month. The same amount of marketing effort is exerted in both cases, but one search could be four months shorter. Expend the necessary marketing energy and get on with your career. Delay is expensive. Unemployment or underemployment can cost you tens of thousands of dollars while your search continues. More importantly, delay could mean taking a position out of desperation rather than choice.
 
Exposure to the Right People
 
It is a well-known statistic that 85% of all available positions are not publicized. So, how do you get in front of decision makers while they are assessing their needs? Only a targeted direct-to-decision-maker campaign can reach this huge market of job opportunities quickly and effectively.
 
One of LegalAuthority's key assets is its proprietary database containing more than 10.8 million companies. This includes the majority of US companies, venture capital companies, law firms, hospitals, health care associations, growth companies, and recruiting firms, as well as the top foreign companies. Our data is much cleaner than most lists of major US data suppliers that you might find in the library or on the Internet. Our data averages 1%-4% undeliverable mail rates, which is outstanding in the industry. At LegalAuthority, we treat each letter as if it were the only letter. LegalAuthority can put your resume in front of corporate decision makers in a quality manner and gain the exposure you desire.
