Find Your Dream Job guest Gina Riley says relying on AI alone won't help you stand out in today's market. Instead, she encourages job seekers to focus on storytelling, showing the results you've achieved and the unique value you bring to employers. Gina shares how to use AI wisely, not as a shortcut, but as a support tool for shaping stronger applications and tailoring them to specific roles. She explains why mass applications rarely pay off, why thoughtful customization matters, and why networking and referrals remain important. By building relationships, highlighting results, and positioning yourself as the obvious solution to an employer's problem, you'll stand out in ways that AI-generated materials never can.

Last week, we spent five full days together building and fine-tuning your résumé. You now have a marketing document that's designed to get you noticed. But here's the #1 mistake most job seekers make right now… they slow down. They assume the holidays are dead time. They think no one's hiring until January. They coast into the new year. That couldn't be further from the truth. November through February is THE BEST time of year to land a new role. Companies evaluate their budgets. They make sure to spend the current year's budget so they don't lose it. They prepare next year's budgets and identify the resources. Then, they hurry to start recruiting because people aren't teleported on January 2. They panic because employees who didn't get the promotions or raises leave. And then they have more seats to fill. All these employee mobility spikes mean opportunities for you. But only if you're in the game!  If you step off the gas now, you're handing those jobs to someone else. That's what I cover in today's podcast… If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1.

How do you push back against the “overqualified” label in interviews when you're an experienced leader? The job search is daunting today, to say the least, and when you're going in with a decade or more of experience, it can be a real confidence-killer, too. Loren Greiff is the founder of PortfolioRocket. She directs her wealth of experience as a recruiter and advertiser to ending “career victimization by elevating, accelerating, and celebrating one executive over 40 at a time.” We talk about how those with significant career experience can reframe and reclaim the job search experience. Shift your job search mindset to rise in the recruitment ranks:How to transition from a passive to an active application approach;Honing in on and clearly explaining your unique unfair advantage;What interviewers actually mean when they say you're “overqualified”;What to stop doing before and during your interviews to really set yourself apart.Related Links:Episode 523, What Our 2025 Community Survey Reveals About Women, Work, and Burnout - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode523Work with Loren - https://www.portfoliorocket.com/Connect with Loren - https://www.linkedin.com/in/lorengreiff/Listen to the “Career Blast in a Half” podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/career-blast-in-a-half/id1670977528Download the “Unlock the Hidden Job Market” ebook - https://programs.portfoliorocket.com/unlock-websiteHIRED: a job search accelerator video course - https://www.bossedup.org/hired/Bossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Remember, Over the last 14 years, I have done everything I can to help as many #jobseekers as possible via Power Point presentations, documents , speaking engagements and now LinkedIn presentations that LinkedIn promotes for me. I also, whenever possible, scroll down my feed and every time I see a person that is #opentowork, I drop an invite to my next#LinkedInLive event or if I am not having one my #YouTube page that has hundreds of videos and audio events. I know that I have helped thousands of people in some way to get out of the canyon called #Unemployment and back into the job world. I could've charged a lot of money to a lot of people over the years because my stuff works and it works fast if you are someone that goes and attacks challenges. I don't charge people a lot of money because they need their money to eat and pay their rent and provide for their family when they are unemployed because they don't know when that nightmare will end. That is why I don't make it a giant moneymaking endeavor. I do this from the heart because I never forget how bad it felt to be unemployed and how awful every day was until I knew what my next job was. That said, I cannot believe when someone is offered free help from someone who has been doing it for as long as I have that they would ignore my invite and not come to the event. All I will say is here is an invite to my next event and if you are a #jobseeker you should come because something I say will help you to get in next great opportunity. It's different for every person, but something will resonate. With all of the people being mistreated and ghosted and punched in the face on this platform by people who have no interest in helping, I offer all I can give you to help you get back on your feet.

When host Jenny Dempsey got laid off back in 2022, she had no clue what I was doing. She was crying on her couch, trying to figure out who she even was without my job. No one hands you a guide for that kind of loss. It honestly felt like the ground fell out from under her.And then along comes Steve Jaffe. Turns out, he literally wrote the book I wish I had back then: The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery.Steve's been through four layoffs (yes, four!) and instead of letting it crush him, he mapped out the stages of grief that come with job loss. Reading his book brought up so many of my own memories, everything from the shock and shame to that messy process of rebuilding your identity. It made me cry, it gave me hope, and it reminded me I'm not alone.In this conversation with Steve, we talk about:Why losing a job takes you through the grieving process.The awkward shame we carry after a layoff, and how to drop it.Why slowing down to process before jumping into the job hunt can change everythingThe “baggage” you might unknowingly carry into your next role.And what you need to hear if you just got laid off yesterday.This one hit so close to home for me, and if you've ever been laid off, or even just wondered who you are without your job, I think it'll resonate with you too.Connect with SteveGrab Steve's book The Layoff Journey on Amazon: The Layoff JourneyLearn more at: thestevejaffe.comFollow Steve on Instagram: @stevejaffethelayoffjourneyConnect with Steve on LinkedIn: Steve Jaffe on LinkedIn Thanks for tuning in to The Career Flipper!If this episode made you think, laugh, or feel a little braver about your own flip, do me a favor:

Check out the podcast on Macslist here: (https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=16299&preview=true)  Perfectionism can quietly hold your job search back. According to Find Your Dream Job guest Tanya Romaniuk, one of the biggest challenges is waiting until everything feels “just right” before taking action. Tanya highlights common pitfalls perfectionists face, including overthinking applications, delaying outreach, and letting fear prevent progress. Her advice is to start small, take imperfect actions, and focus on progress over polish. Tanya suggests flipping the script on your inner critic, practicing interview prep with friends or mentors, and building confidence through experience rather than waiting to feel 100% ready. She also stresses the importance of recognizing when your standards are realistic versus unhelpful. With the right approach, Tanya says that practicing imperfection will build your confidence and skills, and also get you closer to the work that truly fits you.

In this Ask the Expert episode, HR expert Kathleen Hermacinski returns to weigh in on a listener's question: how do hiring managers view the “Open to Work” label on LinkedIn? She explains when the tag can make you more visible to recruiters, when it might spark awkward conversations, and how generational perspectives shape how it's perceived. Kathleen also shares examples of candidates who've used the label successfully, tips for job seekers just entering the workforce, and why context and communication matter when signaling you're ready for new opportunities.

By J.M. Auron Quantum Tech Resumes The job market is tough these days. That's not news to anyone in tech. But, too often, an IT job search can be made even tougher by following the resume misinformation that's everywhere on the internet these days. Resume misinformation - like much else on the internet - often gets recycled until it seems true. It's a rare day that I don't see resume advice that just isn't accurate - and may be destructive. Unfortunately, lots of very solid tech pros follow this internet chatter in good faith - and that slows down their job search significantly. So in this article, I'd like to take a few minutes to start to address a few very common IT resume myths. Resume Advice and myth busting 1) The All-Bulleted Resume I'd thought all-bulleted resumes had become extinct. I was pretty happy in that thought. But now? Not only are they everywhere again, they are being presented as the only way to write an IT resume. That's not a good piece of advice. Here's why. All-bulleted resumes are unclear, unstructured, and hard to read. Bullets, in any document, exist to visually highlight specific, important information. To make something stand out. To bring something from the background to the foreground. So if everything is bulleted? Nothing is bulleted. In an all-bulleted IT resume, absolutely every piece of information - from a major accomplishment to a necessary but uninteresting job task - looks exactly the same and is given the same visual weight. Nothing stands out, so there's no way to scan a resume and see what's most important or impactful. That means the hiring authority has to get out a magnifying glass and go through every bullet to see what's actually important. That's time consuming, and hiring authorities don't have a lot of time. What do I suggest and use in my IT resume writing service? I make a very clear distinction between duties or actions, and results. I write actions - whether a client's day-to-day job mandate or the actions supporting an initiative - in a paragraph format. I then save the bullets for the hard, clear accomplishments. This approach creates an IT resume that's clear and scannable while providing a distinct visual indicator of your biggest accomplishments. Bottom line? Use bullets on your IT resume - but only for the things that really stand out. 2) One-Page Resumes This is another one that makes the rounds periodically. It's back now - and may be even more destructive than an all-bulleted format. People are drawn to a one-page IT resume for what seems to be a good reason. We've all heard that hiring authorities do an initial resume scan in 0.0000000003 nanoseconds, right? So we need to keep the resume short to make sure they can read it! Well, hiring authorities do go over a resume pretty quickly - the first time they read it - though with nothing like the speed one sees online. That's not a reason to cram a career into one page. Here are two reasons why. First, no matter how fast the initial read may be, the hiring authority has to see something of value in your IT resume to merit scheduling an interview. If you've cut your 5-, 10-, or 20-year career to fit in maybe 400 words on one page? There's a really good chance you've cut out some - or all - of the reasons you might get a call. Second, while we hear a lot about that lightning-fast initial scan, what's generally not talked about is that the first quick read is just that - the first. If a hiring authority does see something of interest, if something stands out in a candidate's career (because it's not buried in a million bullets), the hiring authority will want to know more before scheduling a call. Because an interview takes time and the hiring authority wants to know that that time will be well spent. To do that, the hiring authority needs to have enough content to determine what a candidate can offer in a new opportunity. That requires more depth of content than is possible in one page. As a professional IT resume wri...

Why Say Thank You Anyway? I Steve Dalton,  Author of The Job Closer & 2 Hour Job Search   Most thank-you notes are nothing more than polite spam. They're sent on autopilot, on reflex. That's why they're forgettable. But what if your thank you's worked as a strategy not a formality… Even better, as he fastest way to turn a stranger into an advocate, to be referred, and re-invited? Steve Dalton—is the author of The 2-Hour Job Search and The Job Closer (translated into 7 languages) —joins me to dismantle the myth of thank yous.    Together we expose why: Generic thank yous commoditize you. They disappear into inbox purgatory. Bespoke gratitude compounds trust. It shows you heard, acted, and evolved. Follow-through is the differentiator. Not words, but proof. Gratitude is career capital. The cheapest, fastest way to turn strangers into advocates. This isn't about manners. It's about leverage. If you're still treating thank you's like a box to tick, you're missing the single most underutilized tool in your job search arsenal. Listen in—and start saying thank you in a way that actually counts.   Connect with Steve Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daltonsteve/ Books https://2hourjobsearch.com/ https://www.thejobcloser.com/ Loved the episode?

Check out the podcast on Macslist here: (https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=16291&preview=true)  Job searching involves invisible emotional labor that can quietly erode your confidence and self-worth. According to Find Your Dream Job guest Alondra Canizal Hsu, constant rejection and uncertainty cause job seekers to question their value, especially when they don't receive feedback or explanations. BIPOC, first-generation, and immigrant professionals face additional challenges through code-switching and navigating spaces not originally designed for them, often feeling pressure to minimize their cultural identity. The emotional toll manifests as self-doubt about accomplishments, comparison with others on social media, and attributing rejections to personal failings rather than market realities. Alondra recommends building both formal and informal support networks – from family cheerleaders to professional "boards of directors" who can advocate and connect you with opportunities. She emphasizes tracking small wins throughout the process, setting boundaries to protect your mental health, and remembering that ghosting and rejection aren't personal attacks. Managing emotional labor requires acknowledging these feelings as normal, seeking community support, and maintaining perspective on what you can and cannot control in an unpredictable job market.
