🤷‍♀️Understanding how corporate hiring works is a better strategy than waiting for it to be fair. 🧑🏻‍💻Positioning yourself correctly is the only way to get hired in this economy. The job market is an employer’s market. Companies are receiving 300 to 500 applications, so they don’t need to settle for anything less than their ideal candidate. 📝When there’s a lot of competition in the job market your resume needs to be perfect to stand out. 😫Which means if you’re unemployed, a job hopper or have large gaps on your resume they will not schedule you for a job interview because there are 200 other candidates with better resumes. Companies want to think that they’re hiring the best. And in order to appear that you’re the best you need to be as close to the ideal candidate as possible. 🎯The ideal candidate is: in demand, not desperate and not interested. You need to appear in demand (their competition wants to hire you) that you’re not desperate (not unemployed) and you don’t need a job (they want what they can’t have) ❌Hiring managers don’t want to hire someone who is unemployed. ✅Instead of showing that you’re unemployed, start your own LLC and say you’re consulting or put a friend’s business on your resume so that it looks like you are working. (Just make sure your friend will vouch for you if they check your references) ❌Recruiters don’t like candidates who have large employment gaps because they think you don’t need to work. ✅Limit the gaps. ❌No one wants to hire a job hopper because they think you have commitment issues. If you want to be taken seriously, stay at every job for 2 years. ✅Fix the dates on your resume. 👉🏼To discover what you’re doing wrong in job interviews, get an Interviewology Profile ❌Overqualified people are never hired because we think you’re going to leave this job as soon as you find a better one. ✅Take the qualifications off your resume that would get you out of the running. ✨And pro-tip- your resume is a highlight reel of your accomplishments, and you’re the best person to write it. ❌Don’t use AI because we can tell a robot wrote it. And you do not need to pay anyone to write your resume for you. 🍀For more tips on how to interview better, follow me, get my book Interviewology: The New Science of Interviewing and get all our free resume resources at TheInterviewology.com #unemployed #jobsearch #careertipstiktokcontest #careeradvice #jobinterview

⬇️Use this script for your next job interview… Most interview questions don’t have a right answer, but these 5 interview questions most certainty do. 🫣Hiring is about elimination so don’t make an avoidable mistake and give the wrong answer to the easy questions. ▪️When they ask you, “Why are you looking for a new job?” ❌Don’t say, “I hate my boss and my current company is toxic” ✅Instead, always say, “I’ve outgrown my current position. I’m looking for a new challenge, and I know that I can improve your product/department by doing x, y and z.” ▪️When they ask you, “Where do you see yourself in the next five years?” ❌Don’t say, “I see myself getting married and having kids.” Or “I want to start my own business and/or go to grad school.” ✅Instead, the right answer is, “I see myself here at this company.” ▪️When they say, “Do you have any questions for us?” ❌Don’t say, “Nope, I’m good. You answered all my questions.” ✅Instead here are @Anna Papalia 28 impressive questions to ask at the end of your next job interview ▪️When they ask you, “Are you actively interviewing?” ❌Don’t say, “Nope. I am available to start tomorrow” Because everyone wants what they can’t have. ✅Instead say, “I have interviews scheduled next week and I am expecting a job offer today.” ▪️When they ask you, “What are your salary expectations? ❌Don’t say, “Well I am currently making 70k, but I’d love to be at 80k” ✅Instead, get them to tell you their range so say, “What does the position pay?” #jobinterview #interviewprep #interviewquestions #careertipstiktokcontest
