    Why I Was Up at 3:36am Thinking About Your Career

    Lindsay Mustain · Talent Paradigm

    I woke up at 3:36am and this is what was on my mind 💭

    I get deeply troubled by the state of job searching.

    More than ever, I'm watching senior professionals with incredible experience, skills and qualifications get absolutely passed over.

    Companies have made it EXTREMELY hard to even get in the door and the systems are all broken in favor of the employer.

    I am absolutely appalled every time I see someone baffled that their resume never gets a response, an interview request never gets returned or a LinkedIn message gets completely ignored.

    It's not you.

    The system is BROKEN. It was built to weed you out.

    And they want you to be so demoralized that you give up or accept any job offer.

    This is not ok.

    This is why for 20 years in the industry, I've been fighting this system.

    First as a recruiter, where I went against the grain to hire unconventionally.

    Then as a business owner, where I've helped 20,000+ people in 121 countries.

    Here's what I know about the broken system. There is a way around it.

    The way around the application pile, the resume black hole and the rejection cycle starts with people.

    Relationships.

    Because 70-80% of jobs are never posted. Ever. And if you know a hiring manager, you can get in on the inside.

    I literally rebuilt the system with my clients.

    Using these strategies that I'm teaching in my program, we take my 20+ years of corporate experience as a top-level recruiter, and we turn it into an insider's guide to landing 6-figure remote roles.
