Good morning… If you are on the market for a new role, have you changed or developed a strategy? This is the first time I am experiencing so many rejections. I am not even getting interviews.

Pray and tap into networks. God has opened up doors of obsecurity .. but it’s like I have to put more effort to find the opportunities and keep them ..

What is your current strategy? What type of roles are you looking for?

I am doing as much networking as I can and checking job boards daily. I tailor my resume for each role. My background is IT audit/compliance. I would like to transition from the federal space consulting to industry. I am interested in healthcare or tech

Tailor your networking strategy to people in roles at companies you’re interested in. Quality over quantity is important. Offer to buy them coffee and ask about their career, how they got their current job, and if you vibe well with them- ask them to keep you posted if anything in their company opens up. This gives you an inside track to positions vs applying to public postings. Send follow up thank you cards, handwritten is even better to be honest since it’ll make you stand out.

Some things to prep: What’s your elevator pitch? In 30-60 seconds: Why do you want to pivot and what makes you a good candidate for the healthcare or tech role you want? What makes you an asset to a company?

smart

Use AI to tailor your resume to the job posting/description.

Also try to find people on the team at the company you are applying to by using LinkedIn. Then cold message or email them letting them know that you applied to a certain role, why you believe you would be a good fit, and want to know if they can get your resume to the hiring manager. Sometimes it works other times it doesn’t but you miss 100% of the shots that you don’t take

Long story short, I regret choosing the office that I chose. I’d like to transfer to another office - is that a difficult ask? I’m licensed in the state I’d like to transfer to. I don’t know how to make this request.

I applied for a job within my unit that I do not qualify for. Now, I have an interview for this job.

Has anyone felt this way?

I applied to a job at KPMG and did the first two rounds of interviews, general interview, then case study and competency. Never before have I had such a positive feedback at the end of an interview of the 2nd, both said really like me, I did well etc.
It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?

Split classes take away joy! We have 6-7 classes at each grade level and they split 1-2 into the remaining 5 so we can have a 5 day schedule. Big classes plus the classroom culture homeroom teachers work so hard to achieve are ruined. Advice? (Plus we are told to "not be negative" by admin.)
