Welcome to T-Mobile, Joe Pierce!

On March 20th, I received an email from Joe Pierce (former wireless employer to remain anonymous ; ).

Joe had found me on LinkedIn and, as a result, got the address to my blog, WirelessJobs.com.

In his email, Joe said,

"I just started looking through the carriers website when I noticed what looks like a great fit/opportunity with T-mobile.

What do you think would be the best approach for getting an interview for this position? Is there a contact I could reach out to? I am hesitant to send a resume via the website because so many of them get "lost in the shuffle".

Any advise or recommendations would be greatly appreciative."

It's no surprise that Joe was hesitant to send his resume for fear of it being lost in the shuffle. Do the words "Black Hole" ring a bell?

So, what did he do? He sends me an email.

I left Joe a v-mail that same day and then got his contact info into the hands of Christopher Parker (T-Mobile Recruiter Extraordinaire). In Christopher's capable hands, the snowball picked up momentum, and 24 hours ago, Joe Pierce accepted an offer from T-Mobile.

Way to go Christopher! Nice job of recognizing talent and doing your very best to make sure that Joe's "candidate experience" was first-class!

By the way, I just hung up the phone with Joe. He's on cloud nine.

Guess what Joe...that makes two of us.

Welcome to T-Mobile,

Make a Name for Yourself

In the past year, this guy has done more to impact my professional career than anybody else on the planet.

Really.

And he just wrote his fourth book.

And you can buy it HERE, and HERE.

Or, you can download the complete book HERE, for free (just read through his post and you'll find the link that says, "right now."

That's the one you click.

Why should you read it?

Well, as Scott says,

"If you don't make a name for yourself, someone will make one for you."
