My clients need results and don't care about the means. Second, the people who find them have to pay to participate. That means they have to take a leap of faith, read the tea leaves and be a little more conceptual. While the cost of job-search networks may seem high, several network directors point out that more than half of their subscribers are working. It's the most confidential thing they can possibly do.
Many candidates maintain their subscriptions after they've found satisfying jobs.
I'm interested in the salary levels and how employers describe jobs, both for people like me and for people I may be interested in recruiting. Of course, the networks encourage this loyalty. Now they understand that most of us are networking all our adult lives. It's not like a tool that you pick up and put down. It's a process.
