creating a job that does not exist w/aaron harmon, sr. recruiter
guest: aaron harmon, sr. recruiter
- file for unemployment benefits immediately after a layoff since the process can take weeks to kick in
- after panic applying for a few days, switch to a more strategic approach like targeting specific people instead of mass applying
- reach out to peers and individual contributors at target companies, not just talent acquisition managers, when networking for referrals
- personalize your outreach messages based on the person's role and how they communicate on linkedin, matching their tone
- accept help when people offer it during a job search, even small gestures like an introduction can open doors
