Strategic Recruitment Solutions helps you land your dream job
Looking for the job in your dreams? SRS recruiters can help you find it!

Finding and landing your dream job can prove to be a daunting task. After you spend hours scouring job listings, you may not land the interview.  At Strategic Recruitment Solutions (SRS), we make your job search stress-free by providing you with a clear and concise list of possible employment opportunities. Here’s how SRS succeeds in helping you find your dream job: 

First, our executive recruiters are not your classic headhunters looking to fill an open position. Instead we take a consultative approach in placing you in a direct-hire position which best matches your skills, talents, and career goals.  Strategic Recruitment Solutions partners with most of the law firms and technology companies throughout the Gulf Coast region as well as top companies throughout the nation. Therefore, we can provide access to positions in the Legal and IT fields that may not be advertised on job boards or a company’s website.

Most importantly, we’ll work closely with you throughout the entire job search to provide support, insight, and successful strategies.

Personalized and Confidential Placement Services

We know that making a move on your career path is a very serious decision. To us, you are much more than a resume! At Strategic Recruitment Solutions we will take the time to listen, understand, and consult.  And we ALWAYS use discretion throughout the process.

Based on their years of experience in the Legal and IT fields, our professional recruiters can provide you with a wealth of knowledge and insight  Not only can they offer expert guidance on composing compelling resumes and performing well at an interview,  our recruiters remain focused on matching you to the RIGHT position at the RIGHT company.

  • Meet with you to discuss your skills, goals, and expectations

  • Provide with the keys to your success through the interview process
  • Negotiate offers based on market knowledge

The First Steps to Landing Your Dream Job

Before SRS can help you land your dream job, we will help you create and finesse your resume or curriculum vitae (CV). Resumes create your first impression on potential employees. They have proven to be one of the most crucial articles analyzed during the hiring process. Resumes are used to show your career history and skill set whereas a CV is appropriate when an employer is looking for your life experience and career accomplishments.

Cover letters can be used to provide a brief summary of what qualifies you for that position. If you are not experienced in writing a cover letter, you may find this task intimidating. That’s where our experienced team of experts can help. We will use this tool to focus on your competence and abilities so that your potential employer will see your value and show how you will contribute to their company’s success.

Creating a Positive Lasting Impression

After we have helped you fine-tune your resume, we will connect you with our vast network of potential employers. At SRS, we put you into direct contact with an employer. As soon as an interview has been set up, we provide you with helpful instructions and tips on the interviewing process bringing you one step closer to landing your dream job.

For more than a decade, SRS has been helping job seekers find their ideal opportunity. If you are a top performer in the Legal Industry or Informational Technology, submit your resume.  Exceptional talent is in high demand at the top-performing companies.

EMPLOYERS WANT TO HIRE YOU IF YOU HAVE SOFT SKILLS

 

Interview, soft skills, job interview
Are you a team player?

Employers are looking for job candidates with “soft skills”. Yes, it’s true. Over the past decade, the way people work has drastically changed. Now employers are looking for candidates who have more than the necessary technical skills and experience for the job. Furthermore, they want employees to have the ability to adapt quickly and to work across multiple teams and projects. Having “soft skills” means you are flexible and versatile.

Employers want you to have soft skills

Soft skills are interpersonal ones that are vital to the success of employers because most jobs require employee interaction with co-workers and clients. Soft skills include abilities like communication, critical thinking, time management, problem-solving, and networking. Candidates with soft skills are very adaptable, and an asset to employers as those skills are transferable regardless of the type of job.

Soft skills, now considered as important as hard skills, can be hard to access. The main difference is that hard skills are job-specific and can be taught. Soft skills, based on the characteristics of the job candidate, are not easily taught.

Employers believe communication is key at the workplace
Employers love soft skills – these will help you land your next job

Tell a soft skill story to your employer

Highlighting your soft skills to potential employers is essential. Begin by identifying the soft skills you have that are relevant to the position you are applying for. Include those skills in your resume or include them in your cover letter. During your interview, mention how you have displayed  soft skills in past jobs. Finally, you can even demonstrate your soft skills by the way you interact with the interviewer. Also, paying attention to the interviewer while he or she is talking, will showcase your listening skills. Overall, soft skills will lead you to opportunities and help you grow as a professional. Most importantly, soft skills will help you land the job.
