In ten years, when the job you actually want becomes available, someone will make a phone call. The first name that comes to mind may not be the most qualified person. It will often be the professional who built the right relationships before needing them.

Who Calls You in Ten Years is a practical career strategy for professionals who want to become visible to recruiters, headhunters, and executive search consultants without spending hours every week networking.

TJ Walker explains the differences between contingency recruiters, retained search consultants, and internal recruiters; who pays them; and why a recruiter is not your personal agent. You will learn how to identify the recruiters who genuinely cover your field, protect your candidacy from duplicate and unauthorized submissions, respond effectively to recruiter outreach, and stay top of mind in under an hour a year.

For professionals facing a layoff, contract ending, or unexpected career transition, the audiobook also provides a focused recovery strategy for rebuilding recruiter relationships when time is short.

Written and narrated by TJ Walker, Who Calls You in Ten Years is part of the Ultamize Personal Development Podcast Network.
