Just another day of job hunting, application submitting, company researching and as I wake up each morning unemployed, by no fault of my own, I space out with an endless comparison of job hunting vs. dating. 🤔🚀 🕵️♂️ Job applications are like the pickup lines: "Are you in search of product marketing strategy? Because you + me would be like discovering the perfect blend of ROI and a heartwarming CTR – I'm already sold! 😄📈💖" 🔎 Crafting the perfect resume is like creating that killer dating profile: "Expert in Excel, can make a mean PowerPoint, and my sense of humor is top-notch – especially on Mondays. Swipe right for a career connection! 📊😂" 📈 Networking is often the modern-day wingman: "It's not about what you know, but who you know. I'm basically the Simon Sinek of professional connections. Let's make things happen! 🤝💪" 🤔 And interviews? Well, they're definitely like a blind date: "Trying to impress someone you've never met, praying you don't spill coffee on yourself, and desperately hoping they don't ask about that six-month gap on your LinkedIn profile. Smooth, right? ☕🙈" 💔 And finally, those rejection emails, they are the absolute heartbreak of the professional world: "Dear Applicant, it's not you, it's us. We've decided to go in a different direction. Best of luck on your continued job search. PS: It's definitely you. 💌😭" Remember, in the job hunt and in love, stay confident, stay charming, and never underestimate the power of a well-timed joke. 😉🚀 #StillGoingStrongVibes #ForHire

⭐⭐⭐ Job Hunting Tips ⭐⭐⭐ 👀 Not all roles will be advertised on every job board; companies have to pay to advertise - it's likely they will only advertise on one - check them all 👉 Some companies may not advertise anywhere except their website, so keep an eye on companies you would like to work for 🔗 Connect to employees in companies you would like to work for; sharing open jobs on their newsfeed is free so it's likely they will be on there 🙌 Don't be put off by the number of applicants on a LinkedIn job - if it's a good match, still apply 📜 Some manager's still like a good cover letter, so if it's a role you really want, take some time to put one together 🗺 Look on google maps for companies in a commutable distance to you; check their website for jobs and connect with their HR team/ likely hiring manager on LinkedIn 🤗 Don't be afraid to speculatively contact people at companies you're keen to work for, they may have a role coming up that's awaiting sign off/ not yet advertised/ coming up soon 📣 Reach out to old colleagues and ask if there are roles coming up where they are, a recommendation goes a long way That's all for now, any questions for me... comment below... 🐠 Just Keep Swimming #JobSearch #JobHunting #LookingForWork #JobHuntingTips #FindWork #Recruiter #RecruiterTips

Job hunting while unemployed can feel like an overwhelming challenge, where all you think about is securing a future for yourself and your family. You may question whether your time and experiences will ever lead to something meaningful, especially when facing rejection after rejection because your resume doesn’t fit the exact mold employers are looking for. The truth is, hiring isn’t just about matching bullet points on a resume. It’s about recognizing the person behind the paper understanding their actions, the skills they've developed, and the value they can bring to your team. You’re not hiring a list of qualifications; you’re hiring a human being with unique experiences, perspectives, and potential. Look beyond the paper and see the real person in front of you. #JobHunt #JobSearch #Hiring #RealPeople #CareerGrowth #Opportunity #SkillsMatter #RespectfulHiring #CareerOpportunities #TruePotential #HumanExperience
