Have You Applied for a Job Lately?

And how’d that work out for you?

Be honest:

1. How many job postings have you applied to this week?
2. How many job boards have you scoured this month?
3. How many résumé rewrites, re-rewrites, and oh-to-hell-with-its have you endured since your job hunt began?

In fact, there are 1.1 million reasons.

That’s because the average job board generates a yearly revenue of $1.1 million, according to a 2020 study by Staffing Industry Analysts.

That’s right.

Job boards are incentivized to keep job hunters, like you, searching for work and strapped for cash. The longer you look for employment, the longer you’re on their site—which generates more ad revenue for them.

So when you’re scrolling through these job boards, you’re actually boosting their bottom line, over and over again. I mean, why should they empower you to find work? Your unemployment makes them money – $22 billion dollars*.

And job boards aren’t the only guilty party here, either.

The Hidden Agenda Behind the Career Coaching Industry

Professional consultants, life coaches, and career counselors often operate in the land of half-truths and plausible deniability.

These hot-air advisors routinely employ sleight of hand tactics to keep you in the dark about the way the job market really works.

Why?

Because you’re easy pickins to them. That’s why.

But it doesn’t have to stay this way.

Make no mistake: job boards and life coaches profit from your unemployment.

I once spoke with a celebrated, widely-respected professional development coach, who admitted to me:

“David, I earned $400,000 last year teaching my clients job-searching skills. Why would I ever want my unemployed students to actually find work?”

…Yeah.

Sleazy, right? Needless to say, I nearly lost my lunch.

But I cite him here to illustrate the obvious: job boards and career coaches are incentivized to keep you out of work. And the unemployment economy is thriving because of it.

What you don’t see will sink your job hunt.

Navigating today’s job market poses a perfect storm of dark obstacles: being swept out into open ocean alone, drowning in useless advice and information, and doing your damnedest to avoiding the opportunistic predators, like job boards and career counselors.

Rigid devotion to outdated job theories will hamper progress.

So, save the nostalgia for Kodak moments with the family. You’ve got a job to lock down.

How family, friends, and former coworkers unknowingly sabotage your job search.

The three biggest F-words in job hunting are: family, friends, and former coworkers.

F-word number 1: FAMILY

Well-intentioned as they are, our loved ones often lead us astray.

Familiar Phrases:

“Hey, you’re in advertising. I have a friend in marketing. That’s close enough to your field, right sweetie?”

VERDICT: Unhelpful

F-word number two: FRIENDS

A friend has your back—but your friend’s friend? Not so much.

Familiar Phrases:

“I can help! You’re in corporate finance, right? My friend’s a bank teller. I’ll tell him to call you.”

VERDICT: Unlikely

F-word number three: FORMER CO-WORKERS

Cringe level 100: Emailing ex-colleagues to ask for help.

Familiar Phrases:

“Hey! Sorry, your email got caught in my spam folder.

So you’re on the job hunt, huh? Well, ping my friend John Smith on LinkedIn. He and I haven’t spoken since Thanksgiving, but maybe he knows something. Good luck, bud!”

VERDICT: Unreliable
