Opening New Doors
Getting doors to open for you is one of the hardest parts of the job search process. When job hunting, the EasyApply button is no longer your friend. The old adage, “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know" is brutally accurate in today’s competitive hiring market.
At Raven Road Partners, we believe deeply in leveraging networks. We’ve built our business on them. Not only do our networks serve our business, they serve our clients and our candidates.
We make introductions whenever we can to help clients explore new career paths, advance to higher levels, and open doors to more meaningful work.
We recently made an introduction for a client with an operations and analytics background who wanted to explore working in Revenue Operations. Given RevOps isn’t a department in every organization, and her own network was limited, she didn’t know where to start. We were able to introduce her to a recruiting leader in the RevOps space who offered to talk to her about what makes someone successful in the role. Through our network, the first door to RevOps has opened for this client.
Another client was looking to transition out of Talent Acquisition into Customer Success. Fortunately, Raven Road is coaching two other clients in Customer Success, a VP and a Team Lead. We introduced them through our network, and the first door to Customer Success opened.
Yet another client wanted to move into a new role in education technology business development. Raven Road made an introduction to a connection working for a highly-rated EdTech organization and our network opened a door once again.
When you choose to partner with Raven Road, you join a professional network full of active and former clients whom we know and trust. Our clients span a wide variety of industries and all levels of organizational hierarchy from individual contributors to the C-Suite, and we love making introductions.
