  • Fix Your Broken Job Search: How to Talk About Your Experience So You Get Hired

    #162 - You have the years, skills, and track record for the job you want, and you're applying and still not able to land a job. It's confusing and exhausting, and it makes you wonder what you're doing wrong. In this episode, Dr. Tega explains why job searching is a marketing game and not a qualifications game, and why how you talk about your experience might be the very thing keeping you from the offer.

    You'll learn the two biggest mistakes mid-career women make when they talk about their experience, and the two specific places where a few changes completely shift how recruiters and hiring managers see you. Whether you're pivoting into a new field or reaching for a higher-level role in the one you're in, this episode will help you talk about your experience in a way that finally gets you hired.
