    Talent Acquisition Leader, Executive Search, Caree, SNYDER SEARCH LLC
    As founder and owner of Snyder Search LLC, I have completed hundreds of searches for top talent for middle to senior level management positions in both staff and line positions. I also specialize in career searches for the individual.

    The Organization's Search:
    Bank clients consistently select Snyder Search as their #1 choice for recruiting passive, revenue-producing candidates with a book of business in various lines of business. I'll conduct the research, source, identify, and create interest with passive candidates to explore a new opportunity at my clients' organization. I will then collaborate with the client on selecting the candidate, marketing the organization, selling the individual, and closing the deal for the best candidate. Successful searches are attributed to my:

    * Being highly-networking in financial services.
    * Fully understanding the details and hiring needs of the various lines of business.
    * Establishing and maintaining strong relationship with passive candidates / top talent.

    The Individual's Job Search:
    I produce market-competitive, results-driven resumes that get "screened" in by the computer as well as read and saved by the recruiter who is the "gatekeeper" for the hiring manager. I will continue to coach the individual on the dynamics of social media networking, conduct mock interviews, and advise on negotiating tactics that achieve the right rewards in the new job.

    Exceeds expectation for the corporation and the individual -- "professional, unique, and deliver results" -- consistent feedback received.

Questions & Answers

How long should I wait after an interview to follow up to see if I'm a serious candidate moving forward  in the process?
"Right after an interview, you send a thank you email/note and then "hurry up & wait". After about 10-14 days, send another to find out "next steps ".  Don't be annoying and lose the opportunity!
Why is LinkedIn so important to my job search?
Ninety-five percent of major corporations looking to hire use LinkedIn to find the right candidate.  It's a MAJOR  networking tool, it  posts jobs to apply for, and it  can get you hired!
