Advice From A Recruiter - Don't Spread Yourself Too Thin

Universe.jobs is a service of DirectEmployers Association - a nonprofit HR consortium of leading global employers formed to improve labor market efficiency through the sharing of best practices, research and the development of technology.

Chances are, if you joined the universe.jobs community, you are actively or passively searching for a job or professional development. Representatives from our Member companies are full of useful tips and advice so we wanted to capture that in a way to help our community. Periodically we will share short videos of employers giving quick snippets of advice to help you land your next job or get your foot in the door.

Our first video comes from Dennis Smith with St. Jude Medical. His main take away? Don't spread yourself too thin, instead focus in on a couple of employers or opportunities and make a personal connection.

There is that saying about putting all your eggs in one basket.  What if you focus on a limited number of opportunties and they don't pan out.
