Episode notes

Don't put like I'm looking for a job on your profile picture because it's bad to say, but people want people they can't have usually. People are going to reach out to you if they think you're a good fit for what they're working on. So don't make that the main feature of who you are and what you're about. And then maybe within the context of your profile, you may say something open to hearing about dream opportunities or dream comfort.

Receiving a job offer in the land of 1,000+ job applicants on LinkedIn feels like an impossible feat. So what can you be doing right now to stand out?

Founder and CEO of MSH recruiting software, Oz Rashid, joins the pod to chat with Daniel about the best ways for job candidates to market themselves, including building a personal brand, targeting HR recruiters directly, tailoring your resume to match specific aspects of the job description, and much, much more.

Plus, Oz explains why marketing and HR initiatives go hand-in-hand and why investing in talent acquisition is a worthy pursuit.

If you’ve found yourself on the eternal job search struggle bus, this is one episode you can’t afford to miss!
