💥 Why You Simply Just Suck at Your Job Search
Let’s be honest — if your job search feels like a full-time job with zero payoff, it’s not because you’re unqualified.
It’s because you’re doing it wrong.
Most people approach job hunting the same way they did ten years ago… and then wonder why they’re stuck. The truth?
The market has changed. The rules have changed. But your strategy hasn’t.
1️⃣ You’re Still Applying Like It’s 2015
You’re firing off résumés, clicking “Easy Apply,” and hoping for the best.
That’s not a strategy — that’s wishful thinking.
Recruiters can spot generic applications a mile away. You look like everyone else because, on paper, you are.
Hint: The modern job search is about precision, not volume. But knowing what to target (and how to position yourself) takes a clear game plan.
2️⃣ Your Résumé Is Just... Boring
You’re listing tasks, not telling stories. Your résumé might be accurate — but it’s not interesting.
It reads like a list of duties, not a story of impact.
If your résumé doesn’t make someone stop and think, “Wow, this person drives results,” it’s getting skipped.
Hint: Your experience needs to sell your value, not just describe it. And that means learning to write for decision-makers, not HR software.
3️⃣ You’re Invisible Online
Let’s be real — your LinkedIn is collecting digital dust.
Maybe you haven’t updated it since your last job. Maybe you’re still “open to work” without showing why you’re worth hiring.
That’s like showing up to an interview in your pajamas.
Hint: A strong online presence doesn’t mean posting daily — it means positioning yourself as a voice in your space. That’s what gets attention.
4️⃣ You Think Networking Is Cringe
You’re not alone — most professionals avoid networking because it feels fake.
But here’s the hard truth: most good jobs are found through people, not platforms.
Networking done right isn’t about asking for favors. It’s about showing up with curiosity, generosity, and strategy.
Hint: The best connections are built before you need them.
5️⃣ You Have No Real Plan
You’re reacting instead of leading. Applying here, tweaking there, waiting for something to happen.
But a powerful job search is intentional. It’s structured. It’s rooted in self-awareness, storytelling, and positioning.
And that’s exactly where most professionals fall apart.
Here’s the Truth
You don’t suck at job searching because you’re not capable.
