The Danger of Getting Jobs through Friends By: Harrison Barnes
EmploymentScape Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes discusses the potential risks involved in using friends and acquaintances in your job search. Harrison explains that using acquaintances in your jobs search could pose problems both while searching for a job as well as after securing the job.
Harrison feels that it is natural to contact the people you know to see if they can help you with your job search. However, he believes that this causes more harm than doing any good. One of the issues with using friends in your job search is that you never know your friends as well as you think. A feeling of competitiveness, that you are unaware of, may hinder your job-search prospects.
From his experiences as a recruiter, Harrison gives plausible reasons why your friends or relatives may not help you with your job search. There is a high probability of them not wanting the two of you working in the same office. Or they simply might not want to take responsibility for what you might do if you were hired. There are chances that your friend honestly does not think as highly of your capabilities as you do.
Moreover, many organizations do not promote hiring friends and families of their employees in order to prevent resentment in all employment environments. Even if you manage to get a job with the help of your friend or family, there are various risks involved. You might unbalance the relationship with friends for various anticipated reasons.
In all respects, Harrison believes that you actually may be safer getting a job without the help of family or friends and working in an environment without family or friends.

Forbes Reports 151,352 Layoffs for January Itself; Employment Authority Proposes Alternative Job Search Approach
Pasadena, CA — According to a compilation by Forbes recently, there were 151,352 layoffs at America’s 500 largest public companies in the month of January. MORE
"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
