Are Search Firms Presenting You as A Comparison Candidate?

Whether you are employed or unemployed, you may not be aware of the “comparison phenomenon” which can prevent you from capturing the right job or getting a promotion. If you are unemployed and presented frequently by large firms like Korn Ferry who introduces many candidates to their clients, ask yourself whether you are the Right Fit or a comparison candidate. I have worked with candidates who are unemployed for a year or more who spend their time on interviews for jobs that they will never get. Wake up! Stop wasting your time. It is time to evaluate your brand, which includes how you present yourself on your resume, social media, etc. and how you communicate verbally at interviews. Email your resumes to resumes@barroglobal.com or call Dr. Arlene at 310-443-4277. Dr. Arlene will evaluate your resume and contact you with her findings.

If you are not getting a promotion and passed over, ignored, or frequently compared to others call Dr. Arlene now. 2017 is approaching fast! Take charge of your career. No one else will!

Three Job Interviews with the Same Employer: No Offer! WHY?

You did not convince the employer on the first in person interview that you are the ONE Right Fit. If you had done this, you would have received an offer after the prescribed number of interviews. It is not easy to close the employer fast, but my candidates learn to do this. When I conduct a retained search, I present ONE candidate and close the search. When I work with candidates as their career consultant and strategist, I teach them how to implement my Right Fit Method so that they can close the employer on the first in person interview.

Employers are accustomed to searching for the “best” not the “Right Fit”. If you are asking what’s the difference, that further explains your difficulty in capturing the Right Fit job. . When employers search for the best, they compare and contrast candidates and select one believing the person will work out, because they are the best.

Using the Standard of Best to make decisions leads to making erroneous assumptions. If all the candidates that the employer interviewed are the wrong fit and they pick one, they selected the Wrong Fit. Why did you return for three or more interviews for the same job? You were a comparison candidate.

How do you capture the Right Fit job and stop wasting your time as a comparison candidate? You must master my Right Fit Method. Call Dr. Arlene 310-443-4277 to learn how to do this. You do not want to be the usher and not the bridegroom or the bridesmaid and not the bride!

Eliminate Employer Objections to Hiring YOU!

Can you imagine a candidate walking into an interview with sunglasses perched on top of her head? I can! That candidate was my candidate. She is a CPA who I sent out on an interview with my client-employer.

Barro global search, Inc. which I founded in 2003 is accustomed to presenting ONE Right Fit candidate and closing the search. We are meticulous in prepping our candidates. Who would think to tell the candidate to be sure not to perch her sunglasses on top of her head. What do you think happened? My client-employer was so upset that the candidate wore her sunglasses throughout the interview he just deleted her from his mind.

When I spoke with my candidate she was clueless. I told her that I would send her to another client-employer, if she promised me that the sunglasses would not be an issue. Good news! I sent her out again and she closed on the first in person interview.

Employees identify a wide array of objections and distractions to justify not to interview candidates as well as not hiring them. Look at your resume through the employers’ eyes and figure out what concerns they could have. Visualize yourself at the first in person interview and do the same.

To capture the Right Fit job, you must overcome both written and verbal objections and distractions. To prepare yourself to do this, I created the app iBrand4Hire: Rate Your Brand Zero to Hire (See link below). After you use the app, be sure to email your results through the app and your resume to resumes@barroglobal.com.

To discuss the impact of objections, distractions, and branding on your job search, call Dr. Arlene 310-443-4277 or email drbarro@barroglobal.com. I created powerful strategies and solutions to overcome objections and distractions so that you can achieve unparalleled success with the Right Fit Brand.

Start 2016 With a Strong Brand to Ignite Your Career!

Use the last quarter of 2015 to grow your career and set the stage for 2016. Plan ahead right now or someone else may determine your fate. Downsizing, acquisitions, and closures are common at this time of year. Stay out of the line of fire!

Here's how:

*Build and broadcast a strong career brand

*Determine if you need or want to change jobs, if so, do it

*Pursue a promotion, if timing is right

*Change careers, if you are in the Wrong Fit career

You cannot delay taking action. Why? You do not know how the economic conditions can change, especially during an election season. You do not know if the positions that are the Right Fit for you will exist in 2016. If employers become nervous, they can put a freeze on hiring. Avoid that potential situation.

Let’s figure out right now what are the Right Fit actions for you to take.

Call Dr. Arlene 310-443-4277 to discuss your career situation and find out the strength and power of your career brand.

Start 2016 With a Strong Brand to Ignite Your Career!

Does your Resume Have the Right Fit Brand?

Dr. Arlene creates unique Right Fit Professional Brands. Right Fit for whom? The employer! Very few resumes have brands. It is up to you to define and describe your brand, so that the employer can digest it in seconds. If employers can not identify your brand in seconds they’re going to discard it. If you have the Right Fit Brand on your resume, then you are ready to broadcast that brand at your first interview. Your goal is to present a brand that matches the job for which the employer is ready to hire.

Are you a Fiat, Mercedes, or Ferrari? To sell yourself, you need a brand just like these cars. We are now in the last quarter of the year. Change is fast and furious. Some employees are hired and others are fired. Some businesses open and others close. Companies merge creating an opportunity for downsizing.

Are you ready for change? Every employee must be ready to manage change, whatever it may be. What if your annual evaluation says that your performance is unsatisfactory? Can you save your job? It all depends on the situation. I have saved my employee/clients' jobs for the long-term and short-term. Some of my clients have even become superstars! They used my Right Fit Branding Strategies which helped them capture and retain their jobs.

Every aspect of career success is dependent upon how you communicate your Right Fit Brand, in writing and verbally. Even internal promotions are dependent upon your brand. Let’s found out right now whether you have a brand. If you do, is it the Right Fit Brand for your current job or future jobs? Or has your current job turned sour? Lets find out now about your resume brand.

For me to evaluate your resume brand, email your resume to Dr. Arlene’s resume box: resumes@barroglobal.com for immediate attention and response.

To arrange a time do speak with Dr. Arlene call 310-443-4277.

Remember; Indecision causes career stagnation. Email or call now!

Fast Forward to January 2013!

Fast Forward to

January 2013!

Will you be hired, fired, or promoted by 2013?

It’s the season for firing, promoting, and hiring. If you think that your job is secure, think again. By the end of the year someone else could be sitting in your chair.

What are you going to do to influence decisions about YOU?

If you are either employed or unemployed and searching for a new position, you should:

• accelerate your search targeting early to mid-January to start your new position. Do not allow the upcoming holiday season to distract you from forging ahead.

• evaluate your resume to determine whether you have a distinct, intriguing, and recognizable brand to attract the employers’ attention in a 30 second glance.

• assess your communication skills, including your ability to read between the lines, when speaking with employers and convincing employers to hire you.

If you are employed, you should:

• not walk away from your job unless you have another position – goodbye packages do not last forever. Do not assume that you will capture the right fit job quickly.

• write a report detailing your accomplishments, not what you do. Focus on impact, results, and achievements for 2012. Submit that report as soon as possible to the person to whom you report and other key decision-makers. This report could help you retain your position as well as set the stage for a promotion.

• arrange a time to discuss your 2012 achievements with the person to whom you report. It’s very important to walk that person through the report and hear feedback on your performance.

To succeed in capturing a job, you need a distinct, intriguing, and recognizable brand.

Keeping that job? Branding!

Promoting you to ____? Branding!

What is the secret to keeping that job and getting a promotion? Your reports detailing what you've achieved for your employer. Dr. Arlene created a highly effective method to report accomplishments. Email her to arrange a time to speak.

It’s all in the branding. The time to brand is now.

Create a Recognizable Brand

Sell that Brand and Succeed

To arrange a time to speak with Dr. Arlene, call her office at 310-443-4277.

The last quarter of the year is the hiring and firing season and a great opportunity for a promotion.

To learn more about distractors and objections, go to my new app iBrandU4Hire: Rate Your Brand Zero to Hire which includes a video and questionnaire, listen to my radio show WIN Without Competing! and subscribe to my newsletter. Be sure to follow me on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook.

Clients' Praise for Dr. Arlene

Dr. Arlene Barro is a breath of fresh air in today’s tumultuous job market. Dr. Barro should have her own nationally broadcasted program: 'Dr. Arlene, The Career Guru'. Much like Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz, Dr. Barro is a charismatic expert in her field. Dr. Barro gives her clients employment hope and specific behavioral modifications using her dynamic and empowering method of personal branding. Dr. Barro coached me to a successful career change following an unexpected and difficult job loss. She gave me the skills I needed to move from a 'woe is me mindset' to an 'I can and will take charge of my future'. The lady has a gift and she wants to share it!

Patti Thrailkill -- Independent Consultant

The Readers Digest version of my story is this. I had my standard functional resume out to companies and websites that were a direct fit for my background. Most of the time I received a stall, an automated ‘no thank you’, or no response at all. Then, I contacted Dr. Arlene Barro for her to work with me to create a branding package. I resubmitted my new branding package, which included more than a resume, to those same companies that had not responded to me. Then I received emails and phone calls expressing interest in me. In the first 90-days, I had three final interviews and two offer letters. I was now in the driver seat of my own career again. I was afforded the rare luxury of cautiously choosing my next career. I credit this luxury to Dr. Arlene Barro’s Right Fit Method and learning how to build and present my personal brand.

C.M. "Mo" Blake III -- Sales Manager, Pacific Northwest District, Ricoh Legal

My company was in the process of being sold, and I just started interviewing when I met Dr. Arlene Barro. She helped me identify and focus on the criteria that were most important to me, which then became the blueprint of the Right Fit position. Open to relocation, I conducted a national search which generated several opportunities. I consulted with Dr. Arlene before and after each interview as I was traveling across the country. She worked with me to identify and overcome objections and strategically follow up after the interviews, which lead to more than one job offer. I found a great job which is my Right Fit position and will continue to work with her to delineate my brand as I continue to grow as a senior executive.

Debra Wood, CPA, MBA, JD -- CFO, Truegreen Landcare

Once you truly understand branding and incorporate it into your resume and mindset, your job search and your results will start to change. Recently, I received the attention that I deserved from a potential employer. They focused on the unique words that were created to convey my brand and specialties that I had to offer. Through a series of discussions with Dr. Barro, I discovered and/or identified my key attributes and unique skills. With this information, I was able to develop my brand so that any potential employer would understand very quickly what I had to offer. Dr. Barro's unique approach has helped me to understand what I require from a potential employer. This approach will better ensure that both my future employer and I are a good fit for one another which will increase the chances for a good partnership and relationship.

Michael Conkey, CPA -- Vice President of Accounting & Finance, New Indy Containerboard, LLC

After a long career in one company and two years of retirement, my interviewing skills and brand awareness were poor. Dr. Arlene asked the right questions and had the right advice and suggestions to help me create a brand that reflected my experience, skills, and desires. As well, Dr, Arlene’s book “WIN Without Competing!” and her coaching helped me to build the interviewing skill set necessary to manage the interview and to clearly and succinctly deliver my message and brand. As a result, I was hired for a better and higher paying position than that for which I was initially interviewed. Without Dr. Arlene's mentoring, I would still be searching for a new position.

Born a Brand: Dr. Arlene meets Alexandre Renoir

Born a Brand:

Dr. Arlene meets Alexandre Renoir

I love to watch the building of name brands. I first met Alexandre Renoir, the great grandson of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, more than a year ago at a Beverly Hills art gallery on Rodeo Drive. This was a big night for Alex. A grand opening -- his paintings were on display in a gallery with a global presence. The guests surrounded Alex, who was dressed in a short-sleeve Hawaiian style brightly-colored flowered shirt.

On Saturday, October 12th, I met Alex again at the same gallery. I immediately told him how wonderful he looked. He had dropped between 30 or 40 pounds and was stylishly dressed in a suit. I saw a transformation both in how he looked and how he painted. The prices on the paintings had escalated dramatically, reflecting the caliber of his recent work.

As a child, Alex hated the fact that he had a famous last name. He grew up surrounded with constant reminders of “the Renoir”, including a bookcase which contained 500 books about his great grandfather. Instead of using his brand name to his advantage, he wanted to escape from it. Six years ago, after having many jobs, Alex decided to devote himself to painting. Alexandre Renoir is 38 years old. Finally, he separated himself from his great grandfather and found his own brand.

It’s rare to be born with a brand name, especially a mega brand name like Renoir. But, you must have a brand, not necessarily a name brand.

To succeed in capturing a job, you need a distinct, intriguing, and recognizable brand.

Keeping that job? Branding!

Promoting you to ____? Branding!

It’s all in the branding. The time to brand is now.

Create a Recognizable Brand

Sell that Brand and Succeed
