In this high-value episode of Her Career Coach, Christina Storey sits down with Melanie Munro, State Director at SustainRecruit, for an in-depth look into the ever-changing world of recruitment and what it means for women navigating their careers today. Drawing from over two decades of experience across the UK and Australia, Melanie unpacks the current shifts in the job market, from the unpredictability of the COVID years to today's return to a more traditional, predictable landscape.

Together, they explore why salaries surged during the pandemic, what the slowdown in 2023 meant for job seekers, and which roles are now seeing a resurgence. Melanie shares her candid insights on how candidates can stand out in a sea of applications, why AI-generated résumés can do more harm than good, and how to showcase your skills authentically.

You'll also hear powerful advice for women who struggle to champion themselves and how networking can transform your opportunities. Whether you're job hunting, rethinking your next move, or curious about industry trends, this episode is packed with actionable wisdom to help you navigate change and build a career that truly lights you up.
