Money in the Bank...Part 3

How much money is your time worth?


The answer for most of our candidates ($60-$200k or so salary) is $30 to $100/hr.
Money magazine says the typical worker wastes 2 hours in an 8 hour day, and even more when they’re not working.



So… putting this in a job seeking and recruiting prospective, what is it costing you in personal or office productivity when you use the major, or other generalist type job boards to seek out your next advancement opportunity?
Most of my candidates (admittedly, not all) tell me that it often takes weeks of on and off work to discover:


· No response from those major job boards
· Wasted interview times to discover the position was not as described or the compensation was too low
· Realization that their resume was now in cyberspace
· Etc.
