Comment on: Topic 'need expert recruiters to answer question for Examiner.com by 12-18': site for people I can't see in my own network, I always include Big 4 CPA is one of my keyword phrases always. I also include CPA along witht the names of the top 10 to 12 public accounting firms just to cover my basis. Candidate status has no bearing on whether I call someone or not. If they were just laid off, they should update their status which reflects what has happened recently. Make sure to include your current email and phone number!! There's no point in having a LI profile if you're not going to keep it updated? Not every recruiter is going to take the time to find you. I would avoid "Unemployed." How does that separate you from the thousands of other "unemployed" executives? References: Less is more in most cases. I don't want to hear frm the HR Manager at the company who laid you off. Who cares...you're a nice guy who made the best cupcakes for holiday pot luck has no bearing on your candidacy. If you're a CFO, you better have C level and Board references either on your profile or prepared to be contacted. If the later, make sure to include that at the bottom of the page in the section on how to contact you. This gives recruiters a comfort level that what you claim to have accomplished can be verified. Standing out from the Pack: Focus on accomplishments..not responsibilities. If you're a CFO, highlight areas that you were affective outside of the score keeping arena (preparing financial statements, SEC, etc). For example, working with supplier agreements, renegotiating debt service to secure optimal working capital, or "realigned sales comp plan to ensure emphasis on organizational goals was properly incentivized." These speak to your ability to go beyond score keeping and that's what gets a recruiter like me extremely motivated to contact you.…; Added by Bill Ward at 1:51pm on December 16, 2009
