๐Ÿ’กThe single best piece of advice I could say to #jobseekers is to make sure they demonstrate their value offerings as they relate to the targeted role both in their messaging and resume.

๐ŸŽฃ Once they’ve hooked the decision-makers into an interview, ensure they have those narratives and key wins ready to share so the interview will go much more seamless.

โœ… Think about how you can convey your abilities to not only handle the tasks on the job description but also show proof through real-world, hands-on examples of cause and effect.

โœ… Think operationally and achievements.

โœ… Think about how you can make their life easier and how you can resolve their pain points due to the open requisition.

๐Ÿค” Boiling it down, think about your situation from the hiring manager’s POV.

๐Ÿคช He/she has to be pulled aside from their day-to-day to review resumes and fill the opening.

๐Ÿ’ธ An open requisition that is either costing them money or not making them money by leaving it vacant.

๐Ÿ”Ž When they find an ideal candidate, sometimes it’s more of a cultural or personality fit if they know they can train someone rather quickly.

๐Ÿ™ So trust that if it’s supposed to happen, it will. If not, keep looking for opportunities in this new space.

๐ŸŽถ If it’s meant to be, it will be.
