“Why is looking for a job so damn hard?”
This is a sentiment I often hear…
And yes, job hunting is not easy at all levels these days.
It has always had its challenges…
But in this video I go through five statistics/scenarios that explain why it’s hard.
Thanks to Jim Stroud of SourceCon, Hunt Scanlon, Hung Lee, Bureau of Labor Statistics, and Katrina Kibben for their statistics and insights that helped me create this list (credit is also given for each point in the video).
It’s no wonder job seekers are burned out.
These 5 points are major hurdles to overcome.
But here’s the thing…
They are “conquerable”…
100%
The first step to solving a problem is admitting that you have a problem and accepting the situation.
So watch this video.
And accept the situation…
Just like you’ve done 627 times at work.
Once you accept the situation, you can come up with a plan.
So DM me if you want a plan.
And until then, keep educating yourself about how recruiting works and what’s happening ‘on the other side’.
Every month I have an appropriately named pop-up career chat PopUpCareerChat.comwhere I speak with executive recruiting experts from various disciplines and tangentially related to hiring experts (such as executive comp attorneys, executive coaches, employment attorneys, executive education leaders, etc…) to give YOU an inside look at how recruiting works.
So head over to PopUpCareerChat.com to register for my next guest session.
