Career Choices – Always focus on the long term

If you have a genuine interest in your connections and share meaningful info (something to share that is valuable to others) then what a tool we have.

So let me show you how it works!

Click here for an article by Lou Adler; I find his material always insightful and worthy of sharing with connections. My take on what Lou is saying here, is we should always focus on the medium to long term with our own career choices, not just the immediate impact (either positive or negative reasons).

As a candidate, to leave a role because you’re unhappy and without due consideration of the impact could be a short term fix – like a drug habit.

Will it be any better at your new employer? What is the perception of multiple short term roles on your future employment prospects?

Sometimes change is necessary or inevitable (e.g. your role is made redundant or an untenable professional relationship). Couple this with the seduction of rhetoric of far better options and the outcome may not be in your best interest.

As a business owner or hiring manager, there is good leaning in this article for you too. Well considered candidates want to know more detail and will make a judgement call on the role based on sufficient information and understanding, no matter how junior or senior.

Start with the end in mind otherwise a hasty decision in many cases will end poorly.

  Having been my first time seeking a role outside of my graduate position, Ben McKenzie of Zanettis provided me with invaluable insight and advice on my chosen industry. The guidance I received helped me immensely throughout the process of finding my next role. I highly recommend anyone that is looking for a professional and useful recruitment experience to get in contact with the team.

The stand out factor for Zanettis is that they put a greater emphasis on getting to know you as a candidate and team building for the companies they are assisting to ensure they match the right people to the right roles.

  I have nothing but pleasant things to write about Zanetti recruitment. From my initial interaction with Ric and Ben, it felt like I wasn't getting pushed into an offer that wasn't suitable but actually was listened to in finding a suitable role.

Ben took my calls throughout the interview process and after, he continued to endeavor to find the best outcome for me.

They provided me the confidence in myself to find the best outcome to further my career and continue to grow.

I would recommend them to anyone for their services. Great work.

  Ric at ZRC is a first-class professional who I'm grateful to have met. Ric listened to the roles I was interested in and the direction I wanted to take my career. He used his intimate knowledge of the local market to connect with prospective employers (who weren't even advertising), and lined up interviews for me. I found Ric to be very responsive and considerate in all our engagements. I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone working in financial services, in Brisbane.

  I've known Ric for around 6 years and have worked with Ben more recently from the candidate side, with both providing an authentic, personable service. What sets Zanetti Recruitment apart is the extent they go to to familiarise themselves intimately with their clients and candidates alike. They are honest in terms of their alignment of prospective candidates to roles, and their perspective and depth of financial planning industry knowledge is second to none. If you are looking for your next financial planning role or recruit and want the best possible fit, I would not hesitate to recommend Ric and Ben as your first port of call.

  My recent experience with Zanetti Recruitment was nothing but positive.

After my first meeting with Ric, it was clear he is not your average recruitment agent. Ric is extremely knowledgeable of the Financial Planning industry and it was evident he has a comprehensive understanding of existing employment opportunities available, as well as upcoming opportunities that were yet to be advertised.

Ric took the time to gain an in-depth understanding of the key attributes and values I was looking for within my next employer, before providing multiple opportunities which he felt aligned with my personal requirements.

I would highly recommend Ric, and Zanetti Recruitment, to anyone looking for their next financial planning role, or any businesses looking to fill a position.

  I have had a great experience with Zanetti recruitment. Their understanding of the industry and relationship with employers are a great advantage. Ric and Ben took the time to understand my skillset and aspirations to tailor jobs to suit my needs, and it felt like I wasn't another person to fill a seat. Always professional and easy to deal with, 100% recommend. Thanks Zanetti!
