28% of people in the USA who make over $100,000 are signed up on TheLadders

I was walking along with a friend the other day when I mentioned it in passing:

“Yeah, out of all the people in the country that make over 100 grand, 28% of them are signed up on TheLadders.”

To which he responded: “No way! I had no idea!”

And I replied: “Yep, if you’re making over $100,000 per year in the US, you’re pretty likely to be using TheLadders to help make the most out of your career.”

You see, there’s a reason why more than 1 out every 4 high-end professionals in the country uses TheLadders to manage their career aspirations — we’ve created a community, a community of the nation’s top talent.

Did you know that?:

• Every new member of TheLadders gets a phone call from one of our Job Search Advisors. Yeah, that’s right, we’re the internet company that picks up the telephone and calls you in order to help you with your job search.
• We literally wrote the book on the professional job search.  My Editor-in-Chief, Matthew Rothenberg, and I published “You’re Better Than Your Job Search” last year and it rose to #33 on Amazon’s list of best-selling books in the country.
• We’ve written the largest collection of job search articles and advice in the world for high-end professionals and give access away for free.
• We’re the largest resume writing company in North America – you’re in the business too, so you know how much professionals need assistance in this department.  We help them get over their nervousness and anxiety about the job search by helping to create a beautiful document that showcases their accomplishments for you and your hiring manager.

As I mentioned last week in my Newsletter to Recruiters, “Wow, that worked! I can’t believe it!”, I guess that’s also the reason why your colleagues in recruiting are using TheLadders to send messages to their hundreds or thousands of followers – because TheLadders is the place that people go to connect with a community of career-minded professionals.

OK, staffing stars and recruiting raconteurs, hope you’re having a great week!
