1/ Hey Twitter, have you applied to 157 jobs this year and gotten a handful of interviews and still not a single offer?

2/ It’s been a rough year for many of us and being unemployed is a huge added stressor to that.
Here are a few of the main issues I’ve seen with students in my program.
Here are a few of the main issues I’ve seen with students in my program.
3/ ISSUE #1
You’re limiting yourself to one single strategy - applying on job boards.
Job boards have a really low success rate. Unless your resume and skill set is really outstanding, you’re competing against HUNDREDS of other applicants and your chances are low.

4/ ISSUE #2
You’re not being intentional.
It may seem like the right approach to browse and apply for whatever kind of fits.
But you’re fitting a square peg in a round hole.
So the opposite. Sit down and design your next role. Wants, work, companies and deal breakers.

5/ ISSUE #3
You’re up in your own head.
You’ve written and rewritten your resume a hundred times. You FEEL EXHAUSTED and are using a lot of energy, but aren’t actually applying to very many jobs.
Focus on outreach and connections. Talk to everyone you know!

6/ ISSUE #4
You’re getting interviews but not landing them.
This takes practice. Practice with a friend or a career coach.
It’s likely that you’re coming across unfocused, or you haven’t mapped out specific quantifiable accomplishments for them to latch on to.

7/ ISSUE #5
You’re not following up!
The “thank you” email is not just a formality. It is a critical step in the process.
In it you can:
1- Remind them about the things they loved about you.
2- Address any of their concerns or mistakes you made
3- Give some extra details

8/ Over the course of the 2020, I’ve been able to help people like Blake.
- spent 9 months applying
- applied to between 160-220 jobs
He just got a great job that hit his target salary right from the start.
With some negotiation coaching we landed him $5K more. 🔥

9/ Then we’ve got people like Annie. Annie was a MACHINE.
- spent 12 months job searching
- applied to 160 jobs
- got LOTS of interviews
But couldn’t land a job.
3 weeks into my program she landed a job offer $20K higher than her last job.

10/ Then we have people like Andrew who spent a lot of money on other career programs who have them very generic advice that didn’t help much with his specific circumstance.
They didn’t give him:
- support and accountability
- help and feedback when an opportunity came up

11/ Then we’ve got Jorge
- applied for 160 jobs
- spent 12 months job seeking
3 weeks into the program, using the email outreach techniques I taught him, he landed an incredible job offer.
Then he was afraid to negotiate. When we did, he got $5K higher salary.

12/ Then we’ve got Marsha
Marsha was great, she just needed to quantify what she has done and what she expects to accomplish at this new company.
She landed a great offer, then with some salary negotiation coaching, we landed her a second offer $10K HIGHER! 🔥🔥🔥
