3 Secrets Of People Who Always Get Job Offers

3 Secrets Of People Who Always Get Job Offers | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it

Have you ever heard about someone “cutting the line” to land their dream job? They’re the people getting the perfect position without ever submitting a resume, or negotiating a sweet signing bonus plus five weeks’ vacation, or getting hired for a role the company created just for them.
