To improve your chances in the futureask headhunters who you have workedwith in the past colleagues or bosses forfeedback Then take their comments toheart

Finally beware of unrealistic careermoves or a job that sounds too good tobe true Due diligence is yourresponsibilityndashnot the headhunterrsquos Noone cares about your career as much asyou do
