Founders in Motion with Thea Ngo

The Networking Strategy That Actually Gets You Hired


Listen Later

If you've been sending applications and hearing nothing back, you're not unqualified, you're just invisible. In this episode, why the job application is a dying channel and what to do instead: from crafting outreach that actually gets responses, to having conversations that make hiring managers remember you, to building a personal brand that makes opportunities come to you.

Three concrete strategies, no fluff. For students, recent grads, and anyone trying to break into a competitive industry without starting from zero.
