Ask people who are happy with their careers how they got their role 😊 3. Try a career assessment tool (if you know a good one post it in the comments) #careers #opentowork #jobseekers

What I Learned from the Job Hunt After Being Laid Off: The past few months have been a journey of reflection, persistence, and growth. After being laid off, I quickly learned two important lessons that reshaped how I approached finding my next role: 1. Your network is your net worth – It's amazing how many people in your circle are willing to help, support, and open doors when you need it most. I can't emphasize enough the importance of building and nurturing relationships, whether they're in your industry or outside of it. The connections I made and leaned on during this time played a pivotal role in finding new opportunities. 2. Look outside the box – Sometimes, the opportunity you least expect is the one that fits best. Throughout my interviews, I found that keeping an open mind and considering positions, companies, and people I hadn’t initially thought of led to some of the most exciting and unexpected prospects. To everyone in my network who offered support, insights, and encouragement—thank you! This experience reinforced the power of community and the value of thinking beyond the obvious. If you're in the midst of your own search, stay open-minded, and remember that your next opportunity may come from where you least expect it. #JobHunt #Networking #CareerGrowth #StayOpenMinded #networkisnetworth

There are 3️⃣ reasons why I never gave up despite this job search taking over 6 months... This placement had been a roller coaster... I'd done it, I'd found a candidate that had WOW'd the client beyond belief. It was the perfect fit all round. Everyone was so happy. Then an email arrived, they'd accepted a counter offer (which rarely work out, but that's another post...) I was absolutely gutted. I knew I'd exhausted the market to make this placement. And now I had to go again. But here is why I kept at it. Every. Day. 1️⃣ I'd filled multiple hires with this client, when I spoke with candidates, I knew quickly if they'd be the right fit culturally as well as experience. 2️⃣ Not refilling this role was NOT an option for me. I'd done it before. I CAN do it again. 3️⃣ I love a challenge. I thrive when I having to think outside the box, finding new routes that others haven't. The hussel is exciting. It taught me a new level of resilience when I was hitting multiple dead ends. But when I spoke to the right candidate, I knew I'd filled the position again. And when the offer came in, it was worth the persistence! #hiring #dropout #recruitment #sales #businessdevelopment #hussel #resilience

Looking for a job has been a challenging journey, especially with the evolving dynamics of our economy. Years ago, landing a job within two weeks was the norm (my norm), but now the process seems more daunting than ever. Securing an interview feels like hitting the jackpot. Is it just Dallas that feels like jobs are scarce, or is this the new reality everywhere? The job search landscape has certainly changed, making the process feel more intense and uncertain. This is definitely a workforce in which emphasizes the need to be friends with people that have influence or otherwise it’ll be a longer journey than expected. In all things have faith, though. #JobSearch #CareerJourney

Over the weekend, one of my friends from Booth said the best career advice she ever got was to always take a call from a recruiter, even when you're not looking for another job. What's the best snippet of career advice you've ever gotten? Please comment below! #careeradvice #jobsearch #careerpath

Congratulations to my former client on their new job! After realizing they were underpaid and undervalued for the volume of work they were handling, they took a bold step to advocate for themselves. They initiated a conversation with their employer, seeking a job title change and a raise that matched their responsibilities. When the company didn’t align with their vision, they didn’t settle—they took action. Using the job search strategies we created, they embarked on a focused job search. In just three months, they interviewed at three companies and secured two job offers, ultimately landing a new position that truly recognizes their worth. This journey is a powerful reminder that knowing your value and being proactive in your career can lead to incredible outcomes. Congratulations on this well-deserved success! #CareerSuccess #JobSearch #KnowYourWorth #CareerGrowth #NegotiationSkills

Troy had been job searching for 16 months and got rejected by 30 companies. We met, showed him what to do differently, and got his job three days later, at his very next interview, and for a significantly higher compensation. He’s a Senior professional, incredibly capable, with more than three decades of experience and a VP role under his belt. This is a snippet from an interview earlier today with Dr Turley, in which I explain that getting a job is not about luck, time or effort. The job search system is not broken, it is complex, it is not easy, but it is significantly easier to navigate through with someone next to you. Reach out if you want to switch jobs fast. #jobs #jobseekers #technology

A job gap of six months is enough to raise red flags with employers. And I think this is sad. Because job gaps happen for various reasons. In this week's video, I am talking about job gaps and how you could use that time as a springboard for your next opportunity. Here's the link to watch the video: https://lnkd.in/eM9AS9hX
