Stop Being Ghosted: Why Your Resume Is Failing the 1-in-12 Rule


Listen Later

This week, Jeff and I are diving into a frustrating reality for many job seekers: applying to dozens of roles and hearing absolutely NOTHING back. It is so easy to feel like you are the problem, but in reality, this is often a strategy problem. We want to help you move from being ghosted to getting the interview calls you deserve.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why a 1-in-12 interview ratio is actually a healthy goal
  • The “Resume Problem” vs. the “You Problem”
  • How to turn boring responsibilities into high-impact evidence stories
  • Why you should never use Canva templates for your resume
  • The trap of “Easy Apply” and mass applying indiscriminately
  • Why meeting 70% of the job requirements is often enough to apply
  • How to handle being passed over for an internal candidate


Listen in to help us, help you give yourself the best chance of landing your Next Job… NOW :)
