  • 🚀 How to Win the Job Search Race (Issue #557)

    🚀 How to Win the Job Search Race (Issue #557)
    May 8 2024
    No one ever said the job market was fair. That’s even more true in the current economy which has been plagued with layoff after layoff. Now, in this race for a new job, some candidates are clearly driving race cars, while others are struggling to make it around the job search track with an underpowered engine or even a flat tire. Why is that? Let me play with this metaphor for a bit, starting with the diagram below. Note: I go into a lot more detail in the podcast recording. So, scroll up, hit play, and listen. You can think of “Capability” as the engine of the race car. It includes:* Talent* Skills* Knowledge* Experience“Drive” is one of the tires. It includes:* Grit* Determination* Persistence* Confidence* Consistency“Reputation” is the second tire. It includes:* Your professional brand* What people say about you* What you’re known for* Your proof “Interview” is the third tire. It includes:* Your job interview process* Your interviewing skills* Communication skills* Presentation skills* Questions asked* Follow upFinally, “Champion” is the last tire. It includes:* Your inside champion* Inside connections * Inside influencersLighting it all up to get hiredThree of my clients and community members recently landed new jobs:* One leveraged networking, finding an inside champion, and my 1-on-1 coaching to create a new role that hadn’t existed before. They also negotiated a higher level and a lot more compensation! * Another used networking, my coaching, and my Career Accelerator to land a job with a former colleague that was in the “hidden job market.” * Finally, the last person used my Career Accelerator, some of my coaching, and an inside champion to land a great new job in Silicon Valley.Weak engine of CapabilitySometimes, your engine is underpowered for the role you’re seeking. I always encourage people to stretch themselves, but do so within reason. Flat tire of ReputationYou may have everything else going for you, but people know you’re a pain to manage and worth with. The industry is always smaller than you think, and people talk. However, you can repair your reputation and get back in the game. Flat tire of DriveGrit and determination will often carry the day. But, if you lack confidence, don’t consistently put in the work, and give up too soon, you’ll find it hard to land jobs that others do. Flat tire of the ChampionI frequently talk about the power of having an inside champion. Champions, influencers, and insiders can tip the balance of a job interview in your favor. Just ask my clients who leveraged them to land great jobs quickly! But, if your Champion tire is flat, be prepared for a long, slow crawl in the job search race. Flat tire of the InterviewYou could have everything else set up, but still bomb the interview. No champion can save you if you don’t prepare well enough. Your capabilities and reputation won’t matter if you can’t demonstrate your knowledge, experience, and wisdom while speaking with the interviewers. I don’t care how much drive you have. It won’t help if you can’t communicate well, present well, and generally interview strongly. Winning the job search race Light up your engine, and all four tires, and you’ll be well on your way to speeding around the track and landing your next great job!

  • 🚀 Using My Broadcasting Strategy for Your Job Search (Issue #549)

    🚀 Using My Broadcasting Strategy for Your Job Search (Issue #549)
    Apr 10 2024

    In this podcast episode, I share a sneak peek at my recent Invincible Career Job Search workshop I hosted on April 1st.

    In the previous podcast episode, when I shared a preview of the workshop, I talked quite a bit about the Connecting strategy.

    In this episode, I discuss positioning (e.g., LinkedIn, resume, cover letter) a little more and then dive into the Broadcasting strategy. If you want opportunities to come your way, the professional world has to know you exist.

    Enjoy!
