Hi everyone.

Do you know the best strategies to land a good job in today’s job market? If that’s of interest to you, you’ll definitely want to hear what my guest expert, Richard Triggs, says. While Richard’s focus today will be on finding a job as a senior executive, you’ll find much of what he speaks about is applicable to almost anyjob and career seeker.

Among other things, on this episode Richards speaks about (1) the biggest trends occurring in the world of executive recruiting these days, (2) some differences among countries in what employers look for when recruiting, (3) AI's potential impact on the need for senior executives in particular industries, and (4) the powerful role LInkedIn plays in senior executive and other job-search efforts.

Richard sees continued demand for senior executives now and into the future. And he offers LOTS of tips for those seeking not only jobs as senior executives, but for others who are job searching. A bonus: Richard offers listeners the opportunity to receive a FREE copy of either of his two books. (See below.) You'll need to listen to the episode to find out how. :)-
