“The squeaky wheel gets the grease”

Here is a quote or quip we have all heard.  What does it mean? Well it is the mirror image of “out of sight is out of mind.” Where am I going with this? Back to my network, network, network, theme. Make sure you squeak and are in sight of your boss and your company.  Be sure to contribute in meetings, follow up with positive emails, respond to surveys, pass on competitive information, etc.  Be seen.

With a recruiter or a contact there are similar ways to squeak: Send emails with quick notes. Update your resume.  Send in your rankings (if you are positively represented. Let them know when you have changed jobs, places you would consider relocating to, new phone #’s. If you are going to be at a conference that they may be attending, drop them an email asking if you can meet for coffee. Basically, keep in touch.  If a recruiter calls you about a job, that you aren’t interested in….give them a referral… Maybe that person will be the right fit.  If not, maybe they will refer the right person for the job.  Be helpful.  The recruiter will remember you fondly and will call you about the best jobs.  How can you beat that?
