E-mail your resume directly to as many as 1000 executive recruiters in your industry and functional area. (Skip this message and go to the headhunters.) Our e-mailing list is derived from the 1,098-page "Directory of Executive Recruiters," published by Kennedy Information, the most accurate database of recruiters on the market—the famous "Red Book" published since 1971. It lists 3700 offices of 5,500 search firms in US, Canada, and Mexico. It indexes geography, management functions, 550 industry specialties, and 13,340 recruiters. This is the only directory updated annually by a dedicated full-time research department. |

In the past, job seekers copied names and addresses out of the directory to compose a mailing. This could be a several-day, or week-long task. And at about $2.00 per letter, a mailing to 300 recruiters was $600.00,
plus the price of the directory ($59.95 + S&H). Very costly and time consuming. With our electronic system, you can e-mail your resume directly to as many as 1000 executive recruiters in your functional area and industry for only $87.00—an amazing value by anyone's standards—and the process takes only 10-15 minutes from beginning to end.
Here's how it works. You enter the software and select your areas of expertise, say finance, treasury, and audit. Then you select the industries that interest you, say media and telecommunications. (HINT: to select more than one item, hold down the "Control" key on your keyboard.) The software will give you a total of the exact number of recruiters in your categories. You may edit your choices to increase or decrease the number. You'll be asked to modify a brief cover letter to go with the resume. We suggest you delete that letter—it is far too basic—and type or paste in your own letter, one like the ones in our cover letter collection. This letter is an especially good example. You'll be asked to select "Contingency" or "Retainer" recruiters. You could select both, but a better choice might be to choose "Contingency" if your salary target is below $60,000, and "Retainer" if your salary target is above $60,000. You'll be guided to attach your current resume to the file. We have found that saving your letter and resume in Rich Text Format (*.rtf) rather than as a simple Microsoft Word document (*.doc) preserves the original formatting better. You enter your credit card information on a VeriSign secure site to complete the transaction. Then you get a written confirmation of your purchase and a complete list of the recruiters you contacted. You can expect to receive confirming e-mails from several recruiters, although most will not contact you unless they have a specific position that matches your background. E-mail your resume and cover letter to the Executive Recruiters.
