Mass Resume Emailers – The Resume Blasters
How do you get your resume in front of enough people to ensure you get enough interviews to finish the job hunt? In a bad economy, you need to get your résumé in front of more people.
First of all you have to understand the industry. As former Search Firm Owners and operators we at Jackson Stevens Résumés have a unique perspective on this subject because we were the recipients of this kind of email.
3 reasons we recommend that you not to hire a Résumé Blaster;
- The typical résumé blaster (as they are known in the industry) sends the résumé on behalf of the candidate but the recipient sees that the résumé was actually sent by the service. They know, that you don’t know, they are looking at your résumé. There would be no reason for them to acknowledge receipt of the résumé.
- Many recruiters view this practice as a desperate measure and to some, a lazy and insincere one. Remember, you only get one chance to make a first impression.
- Recruiters want to know that you took the time to be sure you were sending your résumé to them, just them. Not mass marketing yourself. They want to know that you took the time to research their company.
Find a service that will not only provide you with a list of appropriate recruiters but make sure they have an email function that it will send the email from your email address and not theirs. Your only other option is to spend the hours necessary to research and approach recruiters that specialize in your field or industry, which works better for the unemployed of course. Unfortunately there are not many credible sources available to help you seek out specific recruiters relevant to your search. Most of our partners (see “Search Jobs” section) focus on a specialty that is either industry or discipline driven.
