  • Introducing WinTheView

    by Guest Contributor on April 28, 2010

    (This guest post was written by Ken Diamond, entrepreneur and career specialist)

    WinTheView™ (WTV™) is a powerful interview preparation and presentation tool that is designed to help job seekers determine the critical hiring requirements and formulate the key points they wish to articulate during the interview.  A PDF file is generated in the form of a flip chart-like presentation that can be printed and taken to the interview. The WTV™ development center is secure and enables the job seeker to prepare multiple presentations, follow-up letters and accomplishment stories with online access 24/7. An example of a sample presentation:


    WTV™ Can Be Used In The Following Ways:

    1. Focus process and thinking on your most compelling key points so as to enter interview situations prepared and confident.
    2. Introduce WTV™ as a professional looking printed qualifications summary during the interview to impress the hiring manager and help guide the discussion your way.
    3. Create a lasting impression with a printed or emailed “leave-behind” WinTheView™ summary for each hiring team member.
    4. Email a WTV™ PDF file immediately after each phone screen interview to increase your chances of earning that coveted face-to-face interview.
    5. Email a WTV™ PDF file in advance of each face-to-face interview to facilitate discussion and demonstrate a proactive mindset.
    6. Generate a “career summary” presentation, then link its PDF file on your LinkedIn.com profile via SlideShare, so they can find you.

    Benefits for the Job Seeker:

    • Bolsters confidence just by going through the WTV™ process
    • Demonstrates high level of preparation and professionalism
    • Helps to gain a better understanding of the key hiring criteria
    • Correlates candidate talking points directly to hiring criteria
    • Differentiates candidate from competitors not likely using this approach
    • Prepares job seeker for behavioral interviews via accomplishment story feature
    • Makes job seeker think through qualifications carefully
    • Accesses online portfolio of presentations, follow-up letters and accomplishment stories for easy future use

    We are currently selling WTV™ directly to job candidates via the web, and to channels such as career experts, outplacement firms and executive recruiters.  In the near future we will be pursuing the University and MBA programs throughout the U.S. which we believe to be a high potential market for WinTheView™. We’ve been particularly pleased with the high level of acceptance from well respected “Career Thought Leaders”, which are the experts that write resumes and career documents, LinkedIn profiles, provide job search strategies, interview coaching and more.

    The WinTheView™ user success stories continue to mount and we are building new functionality based upon individual user feedback, along with feedback from the career expert community. In addition to the three offerings today which include; interview presentation development, career accomplishment story development and follow up letter development, we will be adding the capability to develop an elevator pitch or 2 minute drill for effective networking. These files are retained for the job candidate for use throughout their career via subscription renewal.
