We are almost at the end of 2024, and many of us are looking to the New Year as a chance for a much-needed fresh start. Now is a great time to reflect on the past 12 months and set some big goals — financial and otherwise! — for the year to come. And if you’re looking for advice on how to get a new job, you aren’t alone.

Erin McGoff, better known as “Advice with Erin” on TikTok shares her playbook on how to get a job in 2025.

TAKEAWAYS:

Functional resumes focusing on skills rather than chronological experience can be effective, particularly for midlife career changes.

If salary limits are fixed, leverage non-salary benefits, like PTO or flexible schedules, and ask about these areas during negotiations.
