The recurring mistakes I see from candidates and coaching clients. The good news.. some are simple fixes! They can elevate your resume from a B to an A. Visit www.nikiwoodall.com/thejobsalon for your resume review
I observe trends all the time. January is a time of hope and new excitement for job search.
By the February ends, some rejections have set in, some discouragement and full blown burnout and cynicism. Candidates have. been ghosted and are left wondering WILL I EVER FIND A JOB AGAIN?
Yes. You will. BUT you must move beyond the burnout and cynicism of the process - recruiters and hiring managers can FEEL this energy on you - whether its through your Linkedin posts or your recruiter screens where you barely have enough energy to show up and even PRETEND you are excited about the role....
My idea? Commit to MOMENTUM MARCH. Get POSITIVE momentum in your search with these 3 steps: 1. DECIDE to turn things around. 2. Try something new. Join to a new coaching program (Cue, Job Salon, it's still only $23 bucks - nikiwoodall.com/thejobsalon) 3. COMMIT to getting a BURST of new activity - BUT only after you have 1. Recovered from some burnout, skepticism and cynicism..... and 2. Gotten some feedback from a professional that says your resume is SOLID and your strategy makes sense (NOTE - JUST using Linkedin Easy Apply is not a winning strategy.)

The question most job seekers ask is What Am I Doing Wrong?

1/3 of people polled have no job search strategy. 1/3 kind of have one. 1/3 do have one.
Not sure where to start with making one?
The one word that's synonymous with Job Search Strategy.... SCHEDULE!
If you don't have a schedule you are sticking to, there can be no strategy.
I break down the easiest way to look at it and create one you'll stick to.

"It's not you... it's THEM. BUT... sometimes its you...."
Kicking off with an important topic that isn't talked about enough beyond the platitudes like "Rejection is God's redirection!" or "wasn't meant to be!" Yes - those things I agree with. But rejection is also a teacher and SOMETIMES - job rejection isn't even real at all. It oftentimes has NOTHING to do with us, but the recruiters can't really tell us that........
We discuss:
A salon in the 18th century France was a place for prominent women (and some men) to come together and discuss things like politics and social issues. Today, this Job Salon is a place for all job seekers to experience mindset shifts and practical tips for career and life transformations.
Join me as I share what I've learned as a 15-year recruiter, working most recently at Facebook (but had a previous life in non-profits, small tech companies, and more). I've been a side-hustling career/mindset coach for 8 years. My goal is to drop valuable nuggets to kick off your week and hopefully make your job search a bit less sucky.
