Part 2! Job Hunting with David Perry

Snack Vendor -- or Undercover Job Recruiter?

David Perry
David Perry - Undercover
Why is David Perry successful? Well, (if you listened to part one of our podcast series), you know that David called the same candidate he had targeted in a job search 51 times before he got this person on the phone. Leaving 51 different voice messages! That's persistence. That's tenacity. That's nuts... but it works!

The Snack Vendor job description comes from a terrific Wall Street Journal article by Sara Needleman published recently, which describes our friend David, "masquerading as a snack-food vendor inside an industrial park. He had one day left on the canteen truck he'd rented for $500." Which brings us back to introducing those new to Total Picture Radio this exceptional executive recruiter, with terrific advice for any season!


In Part 2 of this "Holiday Special" Success Strategies edition of Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton, you'll find out about the six tools to download, the seven social networks, eight un-written rules of job hunting, nine tools for researching leads (are you Zoom-able?), ten super motivators, (my personal favorite), eleven other ways to find a job today, and 12 (x2) bloggers blogging. In his spare time, David is Managing Director of Perry-Martel International, an executive search, recruiting and placement firm - and co-author of Guerrilla Marketing for Job Hunters: 400 unconventional Tips, Tricks and Tactics to Land Your Dream Job.
