1.  GRADUATE & ALUMNA/ALUMNUS

You want to get good entry-jobs? Change from your 1st entry-job to a better with a higher salary one? Make career? With a family-friendly work-life balance? Well-paid? At popular employers, governmental authorities, organizations? The WS x, x, x, x are for you!

2.  STUDENT (F/M/D)

I'll help you to get most valuable internships as first work experiences. Or to finance your studies and living costs. The WS x, x, x, x are for you!

3.  IN A NEW-ORIENTATION

Your course of study doesn't suit you? That happens. In case you want to change and make your steps to where you feel from your heart: "Yes, THIS is mine!" The WS Xx is for you!

4.  INTERNATIONAL STUDENT/ GRADUATE

Do you face rejections, discrimination, (language) difficulties? Let's stop and change that! Use your new job-hunting-skills from the WS x, x, xx to

• Get good jobs in your guest-country.
• Get better jobs in your home-country – even if it
  struggles with high youth unemployment.
• Or move to countries that value you and your skills more.

5.  WOMAN & MOTHER

Women worldwide still are treated unfairly on the job markets and in job interviews. They face higher unemployment than men, earn less money, rarely are in leading positions and . . . they sell themselves very often "under value".

Almost 50% of my 20,000+ candidates are women, 20 – 30% mothers, and 70% of my employees & freelancers are/were women. Many with high responsibilities and in managing positions. They increase their salaries by innovative ideas & performance. In my WS x, x, x, x you will:

• Learn to HUNT better jobs in a female "warrior-style". 
• Discover secrets that your female competitors shouldn't know!
• Learn from best practice examples of successful young women.
• Impress employers with your female power, personality, strengths, your CV, cover letters, and in job interviews.

"As a mother and team leader I look for jobs near me because of my 4 year old daughter – or even better if I can work from home and online."

Anna Apellido de Peru: 

YOU ARE A MOTHER?

Then you become a stronger woman than you ever thought.

WANTO TO HELP YOUR  DAUGHTER/SON, NIECE/NEPHEW? 

That is for sure a good idea to help them in getting good jobs in good companies! And what about YOU? Looking for a new job, a better job, too? Soon you will find here workshops for you, if you:

• face "challenges" because of your 45+ years. Unfortunately 20 or 30 years of experience often count less than we assume. And the prejudices towards older applicants are huge. I will help!
• as an experienced professional, worker or manager look for better(-paid) jobs or higher positions.

"PETER, DO YOU PROMISE, THAT I GET A JOB BY YOUR WORKSHOP?"

NEVER. In my 28 years in HR, I never promised that. And I never will. We can influence many factors in your job-hunt & career. But not all. But what I promise you is: Without active and experienced help you could 

• Lose money by every month without a job. Debts then can cause big problems for you and your family.
• Lose your value: By every month without a (good) job your qualifications from studies & jobs lose value for employers (de-skilling). YOU lose value. After a certain point your "negative spiral" is unstoppable. 
• Lose your health: NOBODY is "immune" to the health risks of unemployment: Self-doubt, frustration, resignation, alcohol, drugs, depression, suicidal thoughts . . . 

"PETER, JOB SEARCH IS DIFFERENT IN EACH COUNTRY, ISN'T IT?"

5 – 10% of your job search depend on the country. And 80 – 95% are the SAME all over the world. I worked with thousands of HR managers & recruiters internationally. We "HR people" think and act quite similar when selecting candidates for our companies. And we reject 70 - 80% of job searchers worldwide because of the same mistakes.  

"I DID ALL CORRECT. BUT THE PROBLEM ARE THE JOB MARKET AND THE COMPANIES. THEY DON'T GIVE YOUNG PEOPLE A CHANCE!"

Getting 50 or 200 rejections from companies is tough. But 50 or 200 rejections also show: YOU for sure are part of the problem, too. Thus:

• Stop blaming the "bad" job market: High youth unemployment requires more PERFECTION in your application.  Your mistakes make your competitors celebrating, when they get YOUR jobs!
• Stop complaining about low/minimum salaries: 90% of Young Talents have no (good) answer to: "Why should we hire YOU?" Would YOU pay a good salary to someone who can't tell/show you her/his strengths & VALUE for your company? . . .
• Stop blaming the companies, for not hiring young people. They DO hire young people even with no experience, as these present OTHER experiences, reduce deficits in their soft-skills & behaviour and: Show their value & strengths to employers. 
• Stop applying only to job portals or hoping on your friends' "connections". That's not enough! Get more ACTIVE!

• Stop having a "sensitive ego": If unemployment threatens the livelihood of you or your family & children, then ask and accept experienced advice and unpleasant but constructive feedback. If not, you will fail 100% in your job searc & career.

References - What candidates from Peters individual consultations and trainings say (translations):

 (3-4 references am ende eines WS in 1 Reihe)

"Before I got rejected about 160 times by companies. Peter within seconds discovered decisive mistakes in my application and in my way of doing job interviews.

Within 3 weeks I had to choose between 4 great job offers of companies. When you get stuck in your job search ... Peter is loaded with very helpful ideas."
(Alexander P., 24, Graduate Business Management, Priv. Univ.) 

"Thank you Peter! You explained perfectly and step-by-step, how I can use the most effective job-hunting strategies for my situation.

Especially the case studies, the before-and-after CVs made it easy to learn from your wealth of experience and knowledge!"

(Vera S. Eigners, 47, Vice Director Marketing, Engineering Company)

To look for jobs now in my country is hard. Even for mediacl doctors. Passively focusing on job portals can be your dead end.

From Peter I learnt the most effective and active job search tactics. He is direct, clear and answered all my questions. He challenges you! And he likes to be challenged by you." 
(Natalia K., 31, Medical Doctor / Neurosurgery)

"Peter, if I will change my job again, then I definitely work again with you on my CV, my skills profile and the target group letter."

(Fabio L., 41, Internet Project Manager)

"Peter when we started our consultation, I visualized my desired professional future with you. This vision is REALITY now! About 4 weeks ago I started my new job as an engineer and junior project manager in a medium-sized engineering company. Thank you again for awakening courage and confidence in me."

(Alberto F., 26, Commercial Manager)

"Dear Mr. Barnefske, I have signed the contract! Next month I will start and I am looking forward to this new opportunity. I take this opportunity, to thank you very much for your advice, your active support and the interview-training. Thanks to you I gained new strength to pull myself out of the 'black hole' after my resignation. I found my way back to myself and look forward again with confidence."

(Anna M. D., 28, Internal Sales Manager)

"Just 1 day after my job interview, I was accepted for the training in a large publishing house! Peter's support significantly contributed to my success. Hunting for a great entry-job is not an everyday situation, so his experience and professionalism has helped me a lot, to be clear in my steps of applying."

(Katja S., 20, High School Graduate)

42 Vorstellungsgespräche und mehrere Vertragsangebote

"Vielen Dank für die sehr guten und ausführlichen Gespräche, Herr Barnefske. Das Resultat: Mein neues und wirklich hervorragendes Profil. Diese Gespräche halfen mir sehr, meinen eigenen Wert zu erkennen und meine Marktchancen einzuschätzen. Im aktiven Bewerbungsprozess – einem Mix aus Direktbewerbungen bei Personalberatern sowie Firmenentscheidern – erhielt ich innerhalb von nur 5 Wochen 4 konkrete Vertragsangebote, die mit meinen Zielkriterien übereinstimmten. Dem gingen etwa 40 Erstgespräche mit Personalberatern und Firmenchefs zu mehreren passenden Positionen voraus. Bei der schlussendlichen Auswahl haben mir die Diskussion mit Ihnen und Ihre Außensicht sehr geholfen, die richtige Entscheidung zu treffen."

Geballtes Erfahrungswissen, hohe Anerkennung durch Unternehmen

"Dass Ihr Vorgehen in der Karriereberatung funktioniert, hatte ich erwartet. Dass es jedoch so gut funktioniert, hätte ich nicht gedacht. Die Aufarbeitung meiner Erfolge erfolgte sehr systematisch und professionell und fand bei den Adressaten (Personalberater & Firmenverantwortliche) ein durchweg sehr positives Feedback und hohe Anerkennung. Durch unsere regelmäßige Besprechung laufender Bewerbungen und Ihr wertvolles Feedback wusste ich immer, wie die nächsten Schritte aussehen. Das gab mir Sicherheit, einen zielgerichteten Prozess zu verfolgen, der schlussendlich in einem Vertragsangebot endete. Ihre akribische Zeugnisprüfung lieferte zudem sehr wertvollen Input für ein aussagekräftiges Arbeitszeugnis ."

Über 30 Erstgespräche und Branchenwechsel trotz Corona

"Da es in meiner letzten Position keine weitere Entwicklungsperspektive gab, schlossen mein Arbeitgeber und ich im gegenseitigen Einvernehmen eine Aufhebungsvereinbarung. Damit war der Weg für meine berufliche Neuorientierung frei. Da diese mit dem Wunsch verbunden war, den nächsten Karriereschritt zum Geschäftsführer zu machen, holte ich mir bei Herrn Barnefske professionelle Unterstützung. Unsere Zusammenarbeit war hoch professionell und sehr angenehm. Es half mir sehr, den Personalmarkt für hochkarätige Führungspositionen zu verstehen. Nach über 30 Erstgesprächen und nach 2 Monaten unterschrieb ich einen Geschäftsführer-Vertrag – und das während der Corona-Krise. Ich vollzog sogar einen Branchenwechsel, obwohl das neue Unternehmen zunächst überzeugt war, es müsse jemand aus der Branche sein. Die schriftliche Präsentation meiner Kompetenzen und Erfahrungen sowie die gut vorbereiteten Vorstellungsgespräche überzeugten den Vorstand, dass ich ihm mehr Nutzen bringe als ein Brancheninsider."

(Geschäftsführer, 46)

Ein anspruchsvoller Prozess mit Erfolg während Corona-Lockdown

"Über einen Kollegen hörte ich von der Methode von Herrn Barnefske und fand sie sofort überzeugend. Ich entschied mich Ende 2020 zu einer beruflichen Neuorientierung und Herr Barnefske begleitete mich 4 Monate durch den Prozess. Wir investierten viel Energie in die Erstellung meines Profils. Ich hätte alleine kein Job-Profil in dieser hohen Qualität erstellen können. Im Rahmen der Zielgruppen-Kurzbewerbung versandte ich mein Profil an über 150 Headhunter und 240 Unternehmens-Entscheidungsträger. Trotz Corona-Lockdown führte ich hoch-interessante Gespräche auf Augenhöhe mit den Entscheidern. Im April 2021 traf ich meine Entscheidung über 3 Vertragsangebote. Diese 4 Monate mit Herrn Barnefske waren anspruchsvoll. Das sollte jedem bewusst sein, der sich aus einer bestehenden Position "berufsbegleitend" auf den Prozess mit ihm einlässt. Dieser Prozess hat sehr ergebnisorientiert meine berufliche Neuorientierung realisiert. Herr Barnefske war ein hervorragender Sparringpartner – jederzeit ansprechbar, pragmatisch, unterstützend und professionell. Ich kann seine Beratung jedem, der sich in normalen oder Krisenzeiten beruflich neu orientieren will, vollkommen weiterempfehlen."

Erfolg trotz überproportionaler Konkurrenz

"Wegen der Corona-Krise wurde mein Arbeitsverhältnis in der Probezeit beendet. Sofort stand mir Peter tatkräftig zur Seite. Trotz überproportional hohem Führungskräfteangebot aufgrund der Pandemie, fand ich innerhalb kurzer Zeit eine neue und vergleichbare Position. Ich spreche eine klare Empfehlung für alle aus, die sich mit dem Gedanken einer beruflichen Veränderung tragen."

Karriere in Zeiten von Corona

"Im Oktober 2020 wandte ich mich auf der Suche nach einer neuen Herausforderung mit engen räumlichen Präferenzen an Herrn Barnefske. Während der 1. Lockdown-Welle erarbeiteten wir per Videochat mein persönliches Setting. Dieses setzten wir dann in ein Bewerberprofil um, welches klar geclustert mein heterogenes Leistungsprofil aufzeigte. Nach einem tollen Fotoshooting nach den ersten Lockerungen ging dieses dann an die von mir identifizierten Personalberater. Es führte neben vielen Aufnahmebestätigungen in deren Kandidatenpool auch zu 37 (Video-)Telefonaten und mehreren Vertragsangeboten. Ich unterzeichnete das Vertragsangebot eines sehr attraktiven Arbeitgebers in unmittelbarer Nähe. Nun freue ich mich sehr auf meine neue Aufgabe, welche einen weiteren Schritt auf meiner Karriereleiter bedeutet."

Seine Erfahrung gibt Sicherheit!

"Bei Herrn Barnefske erhielt ich eine sehr kompetente und persönliche Beratung. Bei der Herausarbeitung meiner beruflichen Erfolge wurde jeder Satz und jedes Wort genau analysiert. Das ansprechende Layout meiner Unterlagen unterscheidet sich signifikant von anderen Bewerbern. So ging ich mit professionellen, wirksamen Unterlagen aktiv an den Markt . Ich erlebte bei jedem Schritt im Beratungsprozess die langjährige Erfahrung von Herrn Barnefske mit unterschiedlichsten Kandidaten aus diversen Branchen. Ich habe den sehr freundlichen und persönlichen Kontakt sehr geschätzt und erfolgreich eine neue Herausforderung gefunden."
