EPISODE OVERVIEW

In this episode, I share the story of an entrepreneur with big ambitions—and an incredibly chaotic resume that was holding him back. With multiple roles, overlapping projects, and no clear direction, he was confusing recruiters and getting zero interviews. We rebuilt his personal brand from the ground up and created six strategic versions of his resume, each tailored to a specific target role. The result: he went from zero interviews in six months to six interviews in just three weeks. If you want to understand how targeted resumes and strong storytelling can transform your job search, this episode breaks it all down.
