Are You Still Sending Applications? You Might Regret It
Do you ever wonder where all your hard work writing the perfect job application goes once you hit that submit button?
It’s frustrating when you’ve done everything right on paper’ –
like agonizing over the perfect wording on your cover letter…
… covering all the keywords …
… even done those extra courses and certifications just to put it on your CV.
(Not to mention those long years you’ve spent toiling away to be able to write X years of work experience on your CV!)
The worst part is the FALSE HOPE.
Every time you hit submit it feels like there’s this chance this time things will be different.
And yet – you hit refresh again and again – no response whatsoever.
If you’re lucky maybe you’ll be blessed with a
“sorry you’ve not made it to the next round” rejection note.
Welcome to the void.
A confidence-sucking place of discouragement where 99% of job applications land up.
If this has happened to you, here’s the good news.
The problem isn’t that you need more experience, a new degree, language skill or certification.
The real problem is that you’re following the OLD approach to job hunting.
Most career coaches are still teaching outdated strategies that don’t work anymore.
They’re still telling you how to apply for jobs and update your CV like it’s 2010.
You can scroll job boards and apply all day long.
But you’d be missing the number 1 most important determinant of success in the new job market –
YOUR ONLINE BRANDING.
I’ll talk more about why online branding is 100 times more important than perfecting your applications tomorrow.
For now I’d love to know…
…What’s your most annoying experience with THE VOID??
