Why A Resume Alone Will Not Get You A Job
|
Are you struggling to land your next job? I know the feeling. It's rough out there, especially today. But I've got a secret. I'll explain that in a second, but first, I have to tell you something important. The Philadelphia Eagles won the Super Bowl this year. Yes. I'm an Eagles fan, but if you thought this email was about football, then you're wrong. Let me explain. In sports, success comes from strategy. Underdogs upset favorites because they enter the game with the right strategy. Do you think the Eagles just guessed on every play? No. They prepared, watched film, and knew what brand of football they needed to play. The Eagles executed the best strategy because they knew how they had to show up to win. You know what's funny? The same principle applies to job hunting and personal branding. Submitting a sheet of paper into a database with thousands of others isn't the best strategy. In fact, it's just that. You're putting your resume and cover letter into a huge pile. The best job hunters stand out from the competition. They proudly show off their work online. They create daily content to share their knowledge with others about their industry. Here's an example: Austin Belcak faced challenges securing interviews through traditional job applications. He began building his personal brand on LinkedIn by consistently showing up every day. Through consistency and networking, he attracted the attention of Microsoft recruiters and landed a role there. The moral of this story is that showing up daily online can attract recruiters and potentially bypass traditional hiring funnels. Do you think he just winged it? No, he knew the right strategy on how to attract the recruiter's attention. Austin knew how to position himself as a leader in his field. Simple but not easy. That's why I created a course designed to help you get started building your personal brand. You can optimize your profile and develop a strategy to show up consistently. Instead of being just another applicant, you will be a personality and someone that companies want to talk to. I'll show you exactly how to do that in the Personal Branding OS.

I'm going to say something that might land me in hot water with some people. Because finding a job, staying there for 40 years, cashing out, and that's life, isn't what it used to be.
