Ever feel like your job applications are disappearing into a black hole?
 
Well, you're not alone! On this week's episode, I chat about the missing link in most people’s job search: networking.
 
Networking can be intimidating, I hated it when I first started it too. But I promise you it gets easier.
 
Here are the 6 steps to your networking journey:
 
Determine who to connect with and why: It’s about building genuine relationships.
 
Think about how you can add value: what is YOUR superpower?
 
Start reaching out to people on your list: If you don’t reach out they will never know who you are!
 
Conduct an effective informational interview: It’s like a first date!
 
Provide your value add: show them that you listened and care about them.
 
Don’t forget to follow-up: don’t be a networking ghost!
 
So, if you've been eyeing that dream job, but the application process feels like a maze, dive into this episode!
 
Let's crack the networking code together and turn those job applications from "read" to "Hired!"
