The Sound Strategy for Landing a New Job in 30 Days

Step 1
Get clear on the role you want, the value you bring, and make sure your resume, LinkedIn say the same thing.
Step 2
Lead with quantified achievements, not a list of job duties.
Step 3
Move your focus from sending applications to creating conversations.
Step 4
Set a goal for weekly interactions, ask everyone you know who they know in your target space, and reach out directly to people at companies you actually want to work for.
Step 5
Prepare for interviews like they're already scheduled.
Step 6
Build a bank of stories you can pull from, practice your answers out loud.
Step 7
Record yourself so you can actually hear what you sound like.
Step 8
When offers come, don't evaluate them in isolation. Try to align timelines across companies so you have real negotiating power, and negotiate using what the market actually says, not just what you hope they'll say yes to.

Sounds simple on the surface right?

So why doesn't it work for everyone?

Because it's your thoughts that decide whether these actions work for you, or not.

WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON

Blame it on a thought error.

That 10th networking conversation that felt like it went nowhere? Blame it on a thought error (or a series of them).

You thought the interview went well, but you didn't get the job? Blame it on an unidentified thought error.

You think the market is really tough right now? There's the thought error: that a tough market prevents you from getting the job you want.

If you thought the market was tough but you believed you were Taylor Swift level in demand, the tough market wouldn't bother you.

A lot of what career experts say is the answer, the list above included, doesn't do much unless it's backed by the right thoughts running underneath it.

A lot of the actions we take, even when they're strategic and sound, create repeated patterns of struggle because of our thoughts, not the actions themselves.
