How Strategic Positioning Helped a Client Land Her Dream Job
Absolutely love getting a message from a client that she's secured THE dream job 🌠 that we positioned her for. Nothing better. How did she do it? And how did I support her?
➡ She had 20 years of experience making impact and a long resume. I cut out everything that didn't support the role she was applying for, and added critical details (numbers/metrics/leadership) for the projects and duties that did.
➡ I provided a short, hyper-focused profile section at the top of the resume that called out exactly what the employer wanted in this role and how my client met those needs.
➡ She networked. She activated her great relationships from previous roles and made sure that people in and around the new role were singing her praises.
➡ She never forgot her value. She showed up in negotiation sessions ready to advocate for herself and defend her position, with poise.
