7 Job Search Mistakes That Are Costing You Interviews
Most job seekers sabotage themselves, and they don’t even realize it.
If you’re sending out applications and hearing nothing back, it may not be “the market.” It could be one (or more) of these 7 job search sins.
In this video, I break down the 7 biggest job search mistakes I see professionals make, and more importantly, how to fix them so you can start landing interviews.
Here’s what we cover:
✔️ Pride – Thinking your CV is already perfect
✔️ Envy – Comparing yourself to others on LinkedIn
✔️ Wrath – Taking rejection personally
✔️ Sloth – Procrastinating on applications
✔️ Greed – Applying to every job you see
✔️ Gluttony – Overloading your CV
✔️ Lust – Chasing shiny job titles instead of the right fit
And for each one, I’ll show you the practical solution that helps you move forward strategically.
If you’re struggling with:
• Getting interviews
• CV tailoring
• Rejections and ghosting
• Feeling stuck in your job search
• Comparing yourself to others
