What is your biggest challenge at the moment in your job search? Are you writing hundreds of applications but never make it to a job interview? This podcast episode is the recording of the webinar ‘Recruiting Insights’ that I have given in June 2024 to share my insights as a hiring manager from a recruitment process I have done myself. There are many common mistakes that people make when applying for a job, that distract me as the hiring manager from shortlisting them. Hear in the first part of the webinar recording What your job search and buying a barbecue sauce have in common 😉 How the hiring process works from a company’s perspective How you should interpret the job ad to tailor-make your application How to reach out to the hiring manager The second part of the webinar recording with concrete Do’s and Don’ts for your CV, cover letter and in the application process in general will come out as episode #75. I would be happy to support you in your skilful self-presentation, so that you can have a successful and fulfilling career by being able to show your true, authentic self! Therefore, this podcast is based on three pillars: • Self-confidence & self-esteem • Managing your emotions • Concrete communication techniques based on NLP And in each episode, you will hear about one of them. – Subscribe to not miss any important points!
