Small, private companies are not so hard to find and research. They are usually local, and usually known to local accountants, bankers, lawyers and other professionals who serve them. So start by “triangulating.” Identify the best lawyers and CPA firms in your area. Talk to the principals. Ask them what small companies they admire. (Do not ask for job leads!) Ask them for insight about the booming sectors of the local economy. And ask who the local business leaders are that you should talk with next… By starting on the periphery, you’ll establish some key relationships, and those folks will lead you toward the center of the action. Be ready to offer valuable insights from your own expertise, and soon you will meet the people who run the companies you want to work for.

Listened to your WNYC segment today.

Agree wholeheartedly with your suggestion of researching prospective employers to determine where you can add value to their organization

My question is for those of us who’s experience is with smaller privately held companies –

How do we go about finding those prospective employers and then how do we find valuable information about their companies

So we might begin to approach them with our offer of added value for their organization.
