Career Search Optimization

Are you looking for jobs online with little to no success? Are you wondering why HR isn’t responding to your application?

Due to overwhelming number of applications received (900 average per opening), companies have changed their hiring practices.

In this short presentation we’ll dissect these hiring changes and teach you what you need to do differently to find your ideal job quickly.


We will discuss:

  • The top 5 reasons why applying online is a waste of time
  • Various screening tools used by HR to profile applicants
  • What is a hiring blacklist and are you on it
  • Sourcing techniques used by companies to pick their favorites
  • Strategies successful candidates have used to find their ideal job quickly

Typical attendees are middle to late career professionals-in-transition, executives and self-employed entrepreneurs attracted to cutting edge job search strategies. Their professions are in a wide range such as law and accounting, health care, software engineering, manufacturing, sales and marketing, writing, operations, project management, and general management.

Since May 2009, ProLango has trained more than 10,000 professionals with cutting-edge job search strategies. We are the only local outplacement and career-transition company known for continually learning and sharing strategies that work as opposed to the cookie-cutter career advice found elsewhere.
