What is Get An Edge Job Pilot?

Get An Edge Job Pilot encompasses the entire job-search process and brings together tools, processes and expert advice. Simply put, Get An Edge Job Pilot adds structure to keep job-seekers organized and focused. This means your job-search is much more efficient, so you find a job FASTER.

How does it work?

Get An Edge Job Pilot is a website built specifically for people who want to get a job faster. Everything you need to perform your job-search is in Get An Edge Job Pilot – you ‘run’ your search on our site. With our tools, processes and advice, you will be much better focused on your search. You get a job faster because you are using a set of tools that were specifically built and integrated to help the job-seeker. If your job-search is important, you want to use the right set of tools.

What is included with Get An Edge Job Pilot?

Get An Edge Job Pilot’s key features are as follows:
  1. Job-lead manager (for all major search engines/job-boards)
  2. Resume and cover-letter builder (with templates and online storage)
  3. Company information tracker
  4. Calendar (with email and mobile reminders)
  5. Contact list (for networking)
  6. To-do list (with priorities and archive)

Can’t I get these tools free on the Internet?

While you can find point-solutions on the Internet, you cannot find a suite of integrated tools that were built specifically for the job search.

Can’t I just use my Office applications?

You can but you won’t be as organized as someone using Get An Edge Job Pilot. Most people use many tools: Office, spreadsheets, paper, notebooks and pretty much anything they can, all of those tools work, but if you want to really find a job faster, then you should use the tool that is built for the task. Get An Edge Job Pilot helps you find a job FASTER because all of our tools are integrated. We are a One Stop Website. It is this focus and organization that drives an efficient search.

Don’t large job boards like (Dice,Monster, Careerbuilder, Hotjobs) have the same functionality?

NO THEY DO NOT. All of the major job-boards still make their money from job listings, this is their core functionality. Get An Edge Job Pilot does not post job listings, we take those listings and make them easy to use (they are integrated into our sight). Therefore, we actually complement the major sites. It is this focus and organization that drives an efficient search.

But don’t the large job-boards have some other functionality to help you find a job?

NO, they have added resume writing (through a paid third party) and some static “advice” but they do not have even a quarter of our functionality.

Is there a fee for using Get An Edge Job Pilot?

Get An Edge Job Pilot is FREE and is included in your inclusive membership with CGTPA.org

How does this help (again)?

Most people do not approach the job-search with an eye to following processes and keeping focused. Instead they endlessly revise their resume and search job-boards. Get An Edge Job Pilot provides a dashboard for the job-seeker so that everything is at their fingertips. People who have this structure will find their next jobs quicker.

Why doesn’t everyone use Get An Edge Job Pilot?

Most people don’t really understand the job-search process. They take the spray and pray approach by writing a resume then posting it on every job-board and then searching for listings. In fact, the modern job-search process is non-linear and ever changing. It has a lot of moving parts, and keeping track of these parts and using them efficiently is key to the value of Get An Edge Job Pilot.
