Only 9% of Proteus Consultancy's career management clients find their next career move through the advertised market.
For most professionals, job search success comes from approaching organisations directly combined with referrals, recommendations and networking.
The percentage varies depending on sector, industry, function and level, but the average is around the 90% mark.
However, when asked what they have done so far in their job search, the answer from new clients often illustrates what's wrong with their job search strategy.
A typical answer might be, "I've applied to 56 advertised posts so far, but no luck!" and then, "Companies? Oh yes, I've spoken to 3 companies directly, but it didn't work."
We work with our clients to give them the right self marketing strategy.
Combine this with the right approach and the right attitude and our clients find a new position in just under half the time it takes for people who focus solely on the advertised market.
