Case study: Using All Communication Channels in the Job Search Process
Terry J. Lundgren, former CEO, and president of Macy’s, was asked, “[Do you have] any
job-seeking advice for college grads?” Here’s what he had to say: Use whatever contact
you have to try to get your résumé read. That’s the most important thing—just to get it in
front of people. Because we’re all flooded with, of course, thousands and thousands of
résumés in a company of our size, and getting your résumé read is not an automatic. And
so do what you can do to get it in front of the people who matter who will read it. It’s not
the CEO typically, by the way; it’s the HR person or the head of recruiting or head of
training or whatever. Third, don’t stop there. Don’t just do it online because it’s easy to
do it online. Do it online and then put it in an envelope and send it to the top company
that you’re interested in pursuing. And then follow up with a phone call and talk to the
assistant and say: “I just want to make sure that my résumé’s getting read. I’m very
interested in your company, and it’s important to me. And I just want to know—can you
give me advice? —is there anything that I can do to get my résumé in front of your
boss?” Whatever you have to say, just to show the most important thing—that you’re
hungry. And to convince them, maybe you use a little of your acting skills. “I’m really
interested in you”—to say: “This is the company I want to work for. Yours is the
company that I want to work for.” And then once you get, hopefully, more than one
opportunity, you’re back in charge to say, “Where do I want to go and where do I want to
work.”
Based on Lundgren’s comments and your own perspectives, respond to the
following questions:
1. Explain what Lundgren means by showing “you’re hungry” for a position. Describe
ways in which you can show hunger in a positive way. (2 Marks)
2. What does he suggest about the effectiveness of relying exclusively on electronic
means to submit job applications? What combination of communication channels do you
consider optimal for gaining a job of interest? (3Marks)
