If you've been sending applications and hearing nothing back, you're not unqualified, you're just invisible. In this episode, why the job application is a dying channel and what to do instead: from crafting outreach that actually gets responses, to having conversations that make hiring managers remember you, to building a personal brand that makes opportunities come to you.
Three concrete strategies, no fluff. For students, recent grads, and anyone trying to break into a competitive industry without starting from zero.
