Turn Your Job Search Around Instead Of Being Unemployed And Unhappy
Are you unemployed and unhappy with how long your job search is taking?
It's not just that hiring is slowing, and it's not because we're nearing the holidays.
You can change the direction and speed of your job search by doing things differently, even when you're unemployed. Or you can continue to do the same things, hoping for different results (didn't Einstein call that the definition of insanity?).
You're probably searching for a job the way most people do ... Applying online for many jobs, and hoping you get lucky. it's the way you've been taught by outplacement, most career coaches/authors, and the way the people you've paid to write your resume have been taught. You've been told it's all numbers game, that the more resumes your send and jobs you apply to, the faster your search will go.
Sometimes that works in strong job markets, if you get lucky. But it fails miserably during highly competitive job markets, like we've seen in 2023. That strategy especially fails if you have difficult job search problems
You can do better than this, and turn your job search around. Anyone can do this, no matter your career, even if you were just ok (or even bad) at your last job, even if you were fired.

1y"Show You're Better Than Just Qualified: From employers' points of view, qualified candidates are a dime-a-dozen - Today they expect 5-10 qualified candidates to compete for each interview spot (That's 50-100 qualified candidates competing for 10 interview spots). You need to show you're better than just qualified to even get interviews, and definitely to get the job." Phil Rosenberg, What's your thought process with the above?
