What I Learned Being $462 a Day Unemployed During the Great Recession

It costs $462 a day to be unemployed.

If you make $120k a year 👉 that's how much you earn every business day.

I remember when I was unemployed as a recruiter in the Great Recession…

And even with outplacement assistance and 6 years of recruiting knowledge under my belt…

I STILL ended up spending 6 months job searching.

Trying to find a job as a recruiter when no one was even hiring in the first place. 😫

I went $30K in debt… trying to stay afloat.

I did everything I was told to find a job.

🔁 Tweak my resume for every job
🔁 Apply online
🔁 Pray to get selected for an interview

My lowest moment came when I was summoned to the unemployment office and trained on how to job search by someone who had never hired anyone in their life.

Guess what they told me ⬇️ to do more of

🔁 Tweak my resume
🔁 Apply online
🔁 Pray to get selected for an interview

Keep repeating 🔁🔁🔁🔁

I was at my wits end.

There HAD to be a better way.

So I threw out the old book on job searching.

And found a better way… because if I didn't I was going to lose my home.

📈 I went from ZERO job prospects to 3 competitive job offers and negotiating a 25% raise.

👉 In the Great Recession
👉 When no one was hiring recruiters
👉 In a highly competitive job market

Does this scenario sound familiar? Because it's the one we're living in today.

In 2018, a study showed the average job search took ~ 5 months. I believe that number is even higher today. 💔

I never forgot what it was like to suffer in my job search. And for the last 17 years (which was when I last I felt I had to apply for a job)… I have been obsessed with sharing my knowledge.

I built my job search strategies in a recession after reverse engineering how companies actually hire top talent.

Which is absolutely the opposite of how you've been told to job search. 🔍
