In this episode, I dive into what it really means to be a "Star Candidate" and how to position yourself as the ideal hire in any job search. A lot of job seekers believe that employers hold all the power in the hiring process, but that's not the case. I'll share my personal journey and how my mindset shifted once I started working in recruitment—and realized how challenging it is for employers to find top talent.

I’ll walk you through the qualities that truly make someone a star candidate, and spoiler alert: it’s not just about having the right skills and experience. From mindset to self-awareness, I explain how you can stand out by embodying the confidence and clarity that hiring managers are looking for.

What you'll learn in this episode:

1. Why the belief that employers hold all the power is misleading

2. How to reclaim the power you already have as a job seeker

3. What really makes a candidate stand out beyond just skills and experience

4. How to adopt a star candidate mindset that attracts employers

5. The importance of playing the long game in your career 

If you’re ready to shift your perspective and become the sought-after star candidate, this episode is for you!
