Turning Your Job Search Up To 11 Slows Down Your Search

Most job seekers try to speed up their search by turning up the volume and sending more resumes.

Turning up the volume of your job search to 11 is usually a poor approach and is rarely effective.

Here's why turning up the volume of your job search usually slows down your search:

1. You're Probably Already Sending Enough Resumes: Unless you're not trying very hard, you're probably sending enough resumes. If you're not seeing enough job openings that apply to you, you'll be better off going beyond job boards to find opportunities, rather than applying to more jobs online.
2. Turning Up The Volume Makes You Lose Focus: When you start to apply to a greater number of jobs, you look for other types of jobs you think could do, otherwise known as "spray and pray". Your path to a shorter job search is by focusing on the jobs where you have a strategic advantage, and spend more of your efforts on those jobs.
3. Doing More Of The Same Things That Aren't Working: Turning up the volume by sending more resumes is like Einstein's definition of insanity - Doing the same thing over and over while hoping for different results.
4. Sending More Resumes Doesn't Get Them Through Applicant Tracking Systems: If your resume is being consistently blocked by ATSs, sending more resumes means that more will be blocked. Random job applications, increased volume and hoping you'll get lucky in a job market recession is a recipe for a long, frustrating, expensive job search.

Maybe it's time to think about changing your resume/job search strategy, rather than wasting your time sending more resumes.

There are ways to speed up your job search, but they require more than just sending additional resumes. Why not let me show you what you need to change to speed up your job search results?

Let me teach you the most effective resume/job search strategies to get around and through ATSs. I'll show you how to accelerate your search so much you can find your next job fast, even if you're unemployed, over 40, or have other tough job search issues.

This is the 3rd recession I've recruited/coached through, so I've seen first hand what resume and job search strategies succeed for job seekers during recessions. I've also seen mistakes candidates make, causing their recession job searches to fail. I've been through this before and know what works and what doesn't.

That's why numerous job seekers who work with me have already gotten job offers this March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December, January, February, March, and April - every week since mid-March 2020.

As a top national recruiter who reads hundreds of resumes per day, who has helped hundreds of thousands of candidates in their job search, and seen thousands of employers' job search processes from the inside, I've got a different perspective than most career coaches.

I see that most job seekers do essentially the same things, even when they think they are job searching differently. I also see most job seekers were taught search methods that eliminate them from consideration, because they conflict with the employer's hiring process.

But I've been teaching job seekers to accelerate their job searches for 13+ years by using non-traditional resume/job search strategies that demonstrate impact rather than just being average. I'll show you how to accelerate your job search so you can find a job fast by understanding employers' point of view and hiring processes ... and using this understanding to beat your competition.

(I'm not just a career coach. I've also been a top national recruiter for the last 16+ years ... so you'll get advice from an insider's point of view.)

Let me show you what you can do now to change your job search and resume so you can find a job fast, even if you're between jobs, over 40, trying to change careers/industry/location, if your industry is in decline/consolidation, trying to overcome long term career gaps, family leave, find a remote job, turnaround your job search or other tough to solve job search problems.
