One thing about unemployment is that it makes you feel as if your previous work experience means nothing.
Exactly! It’s crazy!
Making more money on off a job then having one
Exactly, it’s been horrible. I have been looking for 7 months now and feel so hopeless. I did have a professional optimize my resume. I have been using 2 different resumes and using Indeed and Ziprecruiter mostly. The problem is hundreds of people apply for 1 job. I have applied directly and through employment agencies. I have had multiple interviews and watched many interviews on how to ace interviews but never get the job. It is now really affecting my mental health but don’t know what to do. My unemployment is about to run out.
@@rosevillewoman2055 I feel you! I’m on the same boat. It’s wild. 😣😖 I’m literally working a part time in maintenance because I need to survive 😭
I keep applying and I just don’t hire.
i legit have years of experience with any job i apply to yet they "moved on with another candidate"
"You probably won't get screened for a job you don't have relevant experience for."
Ah yes, also known as "the job I took out of college because I was trying to avoid homelessness and starving has now determined what I'm allowed to do for the rest of my life" effect.
Maybe in different contexts, but you would be surprised how many people think that they can't switch carriers because it's too late. I used to be a chemist for few years and at 28 I became software developer. My brother who is 24 right said that he never considered switching jobs, because he is working is some field for a two years.
@@bartoszstasiak237 Yeah- let us know how that works at 38 or 48; 28? That's still young...
@@bartoszstasiak237 The attrition rate in software is so high developers get hired in cattle calls. Source; a retired developer.
@@pedrolopez8057 Meanwhile here I've been applying for three months as an entry level dev and getting no calls back lmfao
@paragonfury I feel that. Customer service for life 😫
I had to stop tracking job applications so closely. I found that tracking the rejections was really wearing on my mental health.
True
🤔
I recently got a job offer; they’re paying me the max, I have followed you for months, thank you so much!
I know someone making 7 figures as a manager of diversity. They teach classes on how to hug yourself. They made a 20k bonus their first year.
@@genx7006 definition of a opportunist in my opinion.
@@genx7006 Disgusting. Such jobs should not exist. 7 figures per year to discriminate against people of European descent..
Great Tiffany 👍 Unfortunately the economy, tight competitive environment and unethical recruiting practices afforded…makes your hiring unfortunately rare.
@genx
😧 Wow, what qualifications does that person have, if any?!
1 optimize resume to comply with ATS
2 have multiple resumes
3 narrow down to a few job boards
4 apply less to spend time networking on linkedin and apply only for jobs you're qualified for
5 create templates
6 use efficiency tools
7 set up alerts
Panic Applying. Wow, that's what I've always done and I end up getting work I hate and then quit ASAP. It's important for me now to take a job I am a good fit for and will stay at.
I just wing it. most modern companies dont deserve any more respect than that. people taking crap from companies just makes companies treat them worse.
Exactly 💯And a job can age like milk real quick…
It surprisingly took me only two months (3 weeks for background check) to find a good job after getting laid off. Thank you Bryan for your free videos here and dream catcher course
what you do to find just in 2 month ?
Panic applying!!!!! Totally!!!!!! Thank you. That is what I’ve been doing!! I’ve applied for 100 jobs had 1 call back.
I'd much rather go to the dentist!
I actually work at a dental office.
Until you see the bill..
Lol, I'm applying to a dental clinic today. Tayloring my resume at this moment
@@KlingonPrincess Good luck!
@@heypaisan9384 Thank you Paisan!
I wish I could just work part-time. I feel like my mental health would be so much better. In a dark place right now with my job/situation. Finding it harder and harder to go in everyday, especially in light of news of my company laying off a bunch of people and now expecting us to pick up all the slack. So yes, I’m panic applying right now.
Hey I can make you a personal portfolio website
Apply as much as possible. More than half are fake postings or scam, 1/4 wont even bother reaching out even if you are overqualified and the other 1/4 might view your resume at best with a few reaching out.
you might be able to work part time by reducing expenses if possible
The dark side of this process is the flippant attitude to time wasting the Hiring Manager is comfortable putting applicants through due to vague listings and the low level of privacy commitment for submitted documents.
"So, Why do you want to work for us?" ....sigh
these stupid questions during interviews just makes me cringe but still need to come up with a story to kiss their company's butt
@mbank3832 there is so much ass kissing involved 💋
Not an unreasonable question. If a candidate hasn't got an answer for the most basic question it shows a lack of care for the company or role being advertised.
@@mbank3832 😂😂
@@GethAndroid nothing basic about the question. Most ppl have to be told what they are really asking about is how company centric you are and how much research you did on the company. In fact there should be an HR to english dictionary.
Hello Brian, I was glad to hear you mention 'panic applying'. I never thought about it that way but thinking back that's probably how I went about applying for jobs most of the time. Most of my job searching experiences have left me anxious and stressed. My mental health suffered greatly for it
Hey I can make you a personal portfolio website
Right on
I’m so overwhelmed with job searching right now 😞

Best wishes to everyone watching this ✊
Finding a job is way too complicated these days.
This content is so top notch. I am surprised he doesn’t have more subscribers especially in this market.
FACTS!
It really sucks that we live in a world today where us employees and workers bring the company the most value, yet, we are constantly the ones who have to go through years of school, often accepting minimum wage pay the entire way through, just to get a degree that may or may not be valued by some employer when we have to continuously go out of our way to prove our worth to. It should be the other way around. Employers should be coming to us, I know they have career fair events and stuff, but it's not enough. There shouldn't be a lot of people graduating with STEM degrees without any jobs lined up.
Used to be 2 rounds of interview, 1 week max, now it's 5 rounds, few months?
Resume works if you have the right experience and tenure in positions. But most people (90%+) do not.
This is so true
Ditto those over 40 have to live in the street and make room the illegals.
@@Goat1229yes, ageism is real! A lot of employers want to hire younger workers & lower salaries. 🤦🏽♀️
Are you saying 90%+ ppl apply for jobs they do not have any background in? If that is the case, I am not surprised they are not very successful. Bryan says your resume should match 70%+ of the job requiements. Which part of this statement do the people not understand? As a side note, if your resume is more than 90% match for a job then you are overqualified and will not be hired either. In that case dumb it down a bit or apply for more challenging roles.
@@myoutuber77 Yes and agree. Biggest problem for jobseekers is they almost all do the same thing - apply and wait. Need to do cold outreach. Found my kid a job (sad, I know) in a week with cold email outreach. I will be doing a video someday on this - soon.
Really glad I watched this. The advice my university and another coach gave me was the polar opposite of this! No wonder things aren't working.
By listening to your suggestion, I didn't realize myself and blamed myself for wasting an endless search by sending my resume. Thank you for helping and making me a better version of myself.
most decent jobs aren't interested in CVs, they want you to complete their own online forms. so, you put all that hardworking into CV and job site transfers you tot he corporate site where you have to start from scratch.
True but many times if you have a resume that will upload in during the process then most of the forms will auto-populate.
How are you ever supposed to get into something new you want to get into if experience is required for everything
This is what I am wondering. Most of my job experience is in teaching and some sales. I want to branch out. But it seems like nowhere wants to train anyone anymore, which is insane.
@@GloBear801Its not what you know, its who you know now.
@@davidcarvajal5739 your right I agree 190% the only way you get a job these days is it’s who you know u can beg and beg all you want but nothing will help u get the job unless you have connections i seen people find job after job after job after job and they didn’t stay on the job that long they find jobs right away because Its who they know u can beg a boss all u want but nothing helps the boss hires anyone he wants
Just lie on your resume jk
@@davidcarvajal5739 And what happens when you have neither the "expected experience" nor the rich contacts?
Yes I have a disability, so finding something suitable, capable doing, matches my skills, matches what the employer are looking for
When my Grandad had a small company, he just used one job board and this was back in 2005.
I knew I should have learned to play drums.
I'd rather be a broke musician living out of a van than a broke...whatever you want to call this existence.
Should have learned to play the guitar. Should’ve learned to play those drums.
@sg696
😁👍🏻
This is excellent information. The "panic applying" advice is great advice.
How about tips for someone who has had the same job for 20 years and then post covid, can't do that job any longer and has to make a career change?
Thanks for your information!
Basically this guy is suggesting that you bend over hard for companies and hope they will even look at your resume.
In the job market now I dont think actual skills play as big a part as nepotism and knowing someone within a company and getting areferral. I know a guy in the tech industry that has over a dozen high level current certifications, Masters Degree and still cant find a job. Meanwhile he checked on positions that were open and found out they were filled by some beginner , but the beginner knew someone.
All his skills are going to waste. Its sad to see this take place. Companies need to stop playing around and start hiring based on merit and ability and stop giving jobs to their friends who dont know a damn thing.
Amen!
Yeah they don't hire you just because you have perfect skills and experience; I just received a rejection letter saying that they've decided to go with someone from their own company. And there more than a hundred people applying for the job.
@@marlenaeva3813 Yeah, I hear you on that. People who havent been through this kind of jerk around job chase will say you are "whining" or making excuses and "Just apply to other jobs" or "Maybe it was something you need to tweak on your resume".
Basically people who havent been through this blame everything on something the jobseeker did and dont want to put the blame on the employers hiring practices or lack thereof. Employers need to be called out for nepotism enabling and hiring people based on their ability to kiss the most azz.
How long have you been at it looking for a job/career?
Yeeep. It's one of the reasons why I really do hate when he does videos like this. Because he really doesn't understand what the job market is like from a JOB SEEKER'S point of view. He only understands it from recruitment's point of view. And recruitment's point of view is that it's always the job seeker's problem, never the employer. That if you just constantly let yourself be abused for weeks, months, or even years on end, you will eventually climb that mystical corporate ladder (or even set foot on the first rung of it, for that matter). Obviously, this isn't true, but so many people fall for that kind of bad advice. It's really sad, tbh.
What about an old guy who had the carpet pulled out from his feet at 60, and who's two previous careers (40+ years combined) now seem obsolete? I hadn't been jobless since 1987. Most of your information seems to be directed toward younger folks who are in the generation to switch jobs every few years.
Cold outreach with video introduction - to the RIGHT people.
Nice job. I spent27-years in global retained search. There are so many "experts" offering advice, huckerstering templates, etc and they do more harm than good.
Great advice
Thanks Brian from the life after layoff.
Competing to pay rent. Just kill me wtf
Seriously tho
Super helpful!!!!
Amazing channel
How about a video on how to get real recruiters on linkedin to contact you instead of one million guys in india that have zero affiliation with any agency that these companies actually work with?
I unfortunately might be looking for a new job myself, now. I missed the message from earlier in the month, but my office is now moving to a hybrid status and that's not what I signed up for. The job though has a LOT of benefits I've never had before, or not to this extent, so the hunt is going to be hard.
I did get a text for a job this morning that pays quite a bit better, but they've not responded back yet and I still need to see if they can match all of the perks my current job has (along with the details of the job. More pay is great, but not if the job is going to be a soul-suck).
Either way, I'm not excited for my co-workers and bosses to see how introverted and reclusive I am, lol. Online communication allowed me to sound more social than I really am. Introverts aren't easily considered for promotions or raises.
Interesting tips.
All of these job seeker help videos need to start with a clear disclaimer that if you have serious skills gaps (but actually "certifications"), you aren't the one the video is for.
There's nothing these videos can do for you until you find a way to gain those skills.
Totally agree skills and certifications seem to open doors very fast. I was applying for jobs before without any specific skills to point too and never got even a single interview. Once I had just a few months of training the interview and offers seemed to flow so yep totally right. RUclipsrs never spend much time talking about good jobs take extra long even once hired!!
Im curious your thoughts on blue collar open interviews / hiring events. You bypass the ATS and get in front of a person. But the competition is fierce and you wait a long time for a very quick interview.
Thanks!
Wow thanks! 🙏
“It ranks up there with going to the dentist”. More like “it ranks up there with dead man walking to the electric chair”.
I like in the idea of using an Excel spreadsheet to note where I am in the hiring process. Documenting on paper is good too, but it takes a lot of paper.
Fast doesn't come cheap or high quality.
Great Commercial.
This is the situation of a friend of mine ( 2 Oxford university masters degrees in STEM ( Mathematics and Economics) ) for a position:
1. Written test ( general)
2. Second written test ( specific)
3. Introduction interview
4. Follow up interview with HR ( low level)
5. New interview with HR ( actual HR manager)
6. another written test
7. another interview with HR, COO and CEO.
then he didnt hear from them for 1 month which turned into 3 and no responses to his 15 emails he sent in that time.
He moved out of the west and went to Chile, where he owns now a bunch of companies and is a professor at the top university there. Then out of the blue the jackasses i wrote above suddenly responded ( 5 years after the initial written test). He told them to fck off and pound sand
my god, even if you're qualified many if not most companies act like you're nearly hired so that they can hire you anytime when they lay off someone.
Mfs out here about to blow their brains out because they can’t find work but ranks up with “going to the dentist”
Been hearing this "going to the dentist" but when I look it up, DDGO just says some sort of phobia from dentists
Question for you about using job boards... how do you target corporate recruiters (full-time employers) and avoid staff augmentation recruiters (for contractors) when you post your resume on a job board ?
his silence is all you need to know
I was recently laid off as a new grad. I've been applying for a month with very few screenings. Thank you for your information and I will not start optimizing my resume and target jobs that matches my experience(even though most entry-level jobs now require 5+ years of experience). Still, it is rough. I never felt so hopeless in my life...
Sorry and me too! I have too many years of experience and bit enough of a robotic sounding resume. Be blessed in all that you do. 🛶
I LOVE Grammarly!
I going to keep looking for jobs where my skills transfer. My field is low paying and has no work life balance. Hopefully I can combine my Hospitality with another hospitality/ something job.
An excellent - if extremely frustrating - point on the need for an exact or near exact skills match when job searching. Something that I hear constantly from folks - trying to be helpful - who have not been unemployed lately is, "Apply anyway, even if you don't meet all the qualifications." Folks, that may have been viable advice 5 years ago, but these days it's a waste of everyone's time. In biotech, for instance, there was a time when you could become a project or program manager with a PMP and tangential tech or clinical experience. Now, if you don't have a PhD and bench experience in the field, you will likely be eliminated immediately. Hiring managers want people who can plug and play from day one. Unfortunately that leaves many of us as slaves to what may be very niche experience.
False. As long as you have the skills that are transferable, it’s always worth a shot. You aren’t wasting anyone’s time but the person who reviews your resume. There is always a chance you can get the job if your resume has something of interest to a recruiter/hr. You are basically saying “it IS too late”, which is entirely misleading and couldn’t be more wrong.
@@youtubedeletestheoppositio8188 I haven’t stopped doing it, and have tailored my resume for each role. But I have been turned down first round for roles that are far closer to my previous experience than the last shift in my career a few years ago. And as the video suggests, hiring managers are being very, very picky these days. Also, there is a cost, psychologically, from the drumbeat of rejection emails.
The problem with the plug and play employee is that they are already in a job and the job ad is setting the salary too low based on their experience (normally not even at median). That candidate is probably at the top where they are, why would they leave to have to build up their credibility all over again.
Its a catch-22 for everyone, the company goes on without a candidate, you are still unemployed and the star candidate wants to negotiate a better salary.
Shame you have to have plantation experience in order to work on another, it shouldn’t be that difficult to be a slave!
You need to bring back the timestamps!
Just a little bit different in my field of work, but as an electrcian, it takes a heartbeat to find new work/job LMAO XD
I totally wish I had learned a trade instead earning a college degree.
@@lizzi437 Can always start learning that trade now. I mean, if it'd take you a year to learn, how old will you be in a year if you don't learn that skill?
Trades , like sparky, plumber, tiler, carpenter, toolmaker has always been the best choices. I regret. Not doing those aswell 40 years later.
Nursing is like this now too. You apply and they call you the next day.
yes great tips , what about those in a career transition since covid what they did before they can no longer do and thats all you have on a resume what you did for all those years in one area and no current skills in computers . Also I find it had to come up with titles for job postions just to put them in on indeed, and what you can actually qualify for
B. Time eff. practical advice. Keep it up sir.
What do you do if you don't have any experience in the field you're applying to?
Your question tells what you do in every situation. You have zero knowledge of life. Sad stuff.
@@john2914 and you have no love or kindness. sad stuff.
You take care. I am not your audience.
@@XyonbiX50 yes some of us don't pop out of the womb with 30 years experience in something. Handicap you might say.
I guess you try to compensate with something else? Offer value in some other way.
Love the content! Curious to ask… what makes your course material better or what separates your courses from Andrew Lacivita’s? I’m not asking for stone throws or to create a recruiter rivalry, as I appreciate his and your respective content as I’ve learned a lot in a short period of time. I’m just wondering how you might tip the scales for me to purchase your material instead of his. 😊
I can’t comment on Andrew’s material, which I’m sure is great. My perspective is from that of a corporate recruiter with deep insider knowledge.
I’d suggest going with your gut on this one and whoever you resonate with more. I’m sure you can’t go wrong in either direction.
@@ALifeAfterLayoff Appreciate the candor. I will do that, which means I'll probably start with Unlocking LinkedIn and go from there. Thanks!
I'm on unemployment pay right now that only barely pays the rent. I have however decided against "panic-applying". Yes, I am constantly taking money from my savings account to be able to live and eat healthy, but I also don't want to apply for a job I really don't want. I *have* to apply for a certain amount of jobs per month per the unemployment agency, but I customize my résumé for each, and really try to stand out. So far no luck and some ghosting by companies, but I try to stay positive. Maybe one day...
Have you found anything?
@@neelrastardust3052 Unfortunately not yet. I have applied for exactly 30 jobs now, no luck. It's because the competition is enormous in my field, because the market is oversaturated by people with my education
Why should we get into the workforce very soon? Why can't we take a break?
Apparently employers will pass over your resume if you have a break in employment, which is crazy. People get burnt out, I know I do. I want to get back into the job force to help my family out, but nowhere wants to hire.
I don't have a job, not even a part time job experience. Will I still benefit from using the advice listed in this video?
Optimize your resume = lie your ass off, and/or at least a little bit/somewhat on said resume(s)👍
We need to push congress to make these companies who have massive corporate coffers that lay people off to boost their stock to be held accountable. I want everyone reading this to write their congress man/woman for mandatory 5 year severance packages for any company that did not have to lay off and it's paid out of the billions in corporate coffers. Similarly how if you file bankruptcy you can't have a bunch of assets, they must be sold, yet corporations can use corporate greed and sit on billions and lay workers off to boost stock. Write your congressman today and tell them you want corporate reparations and mandatory 5 year severance packages for solvent companies that lay off for no needed reason except greed and numbers.
That attitude won’t get you hired. I am sick of this whole selling yourself to employers thing. You go on a date aka an interview and try to portray yourself as the best prospect. If they like you they try to lock you in quickly before you know who they truly are. After you are committed aka hired, they start taking you for granted and start looking for your replacement.
How do we not become cynical or at least appear to be. (I am not a good actor BTW)
Holy crap, 5 years is a long time!
How the hell do you know if the company laid off for "greed"?!! Have (you) ever run a company - or for that matter (owned) one?!! Answer: no - I'm sure.
@@undoubtedcrow8010 Almost enough time to land the next job, the way this job market is.
I dont understand, ive been laid off since covid (2020). And i need to bounce back in a new endeavor, but i want to continue in the automotive field ( i worked previously in the aerospace industry), how do i switch ?
Multiple resumes strategy is old school. Nowdays the resumes should align completely with the linkedin profile otherwise you are inflicting an unnecessary self harm.
Your resume should completely align with the job posting while not conflicting with your LinkedIn profile. Employers want specific things, and 10 different employers seeking candidates for the exact same position are all looking for 10 different things. The same resume will NOT work for all 10. You can use the same base resume and tweak it with just a few replaced keywords here and there, but you HAVE to customize each resume for each job you apply for no matter how perfect you think your resume is. It's not the quality of your resume that matters these days, it's your ability to concisely show how YOU qualify for the position you're applying for that matters.
@@asinsodojrn Based on the principle that a resume should strictly be one page you don’t have enough space to add more details, on the contrary Linkedin provides more flexibility on that regard. To your point of adding different keywords based on the posting, yes I agree but at the same time this is not considered tailoring in a traditional sense.
@asinsojrn9082 My resume contradicts itself in several places 😁
Linkedin is for losers
Agreed
Any advice for self-taught entrepreneurs with skills and experience but no degree? (Entrepreneuriship can look negative on applications...partly bc you immediately are assumed to be either a failed entrepreneur or someone who will lack commitment to the company...although in my case neither is true, I simply had some temporary health problems that destroyed my business, esp since I had no health insurance...I'm big on multiple streams of income now; the 9-5 gives me more freedom with my entrepreneuriship bc one is for security and the other is for a vision that is sometimes a bit idealistic but also worth trying for bc it contributes to the health of society.)

Hi Brian, thank you for the tips and all of this sounds good in theory. HOWEVER, I am faithfully doing all of the suggestions and cannot land a job. I am preparing for interviews, responding to content on LinkedIn, connecting with people on LinkedIn in my career field, PRAYING, following up, not hounding the hiring manger. I have had my resume reviewed, and still nothing! By the way, I work in the HR field, so I don’t know if it’s my name, which clearly identifies my race, or my age. Please advise on this scenario. I don’t want to appear desperate, but sadly I am. The constant rejection is too much for me. I have even taken a chance and asked for feedback following interviews, which I cannot get for legal reasons.
sorry to hear of your challenges but the HR/recruiting field is having an extra hard time landing new roles due to the huge reduction in open rec across high tech. if you're in a different industry then i can't comment on it.
I feel exactly the same. Doing “everything I am supposed to do” cannot get a job.Have had multiple interviews but no job offers after 7 months.
That part about not having enough experience for a job..so how do you explain one of my friends getting a job he had no experience for with a huge salary and benefits? Either he lied about getting that job or some companies don't care about the lack of experience and are more interested in your skills/attitude/personality.
I’m looking for a job in the banking industry. I have 20 years experience as a Santander employee. Got laid off in November 2023 due to “structural changes”.
Restructuring is a swear word to me. Sorry.
Im 18 and about too graduate its tough finding a job still being in highschool
I am a stay at home mom for the last six years- only have some e-commerce experience, please suggest a hat jobs should I apply for
any advice for follow up emails after applying and or interviewing?

I am 19 years old and need a part time job I am healthy smart and strong so I should be a top fkn option I guess not tho for what reason I could not answer this world does not make any sense whatsoever they look for talk more than action absolutely ridiculous.
Hi, Brian. I have resigned from a bank. But I plan to change to a different industry after 10 years with a bank. But so far, I have no luck in getting interview invitation from different industries such as healthcare or eTravel industry despite I applied for the jobs that i have relevant experience from the most recent role that i played. Brian, could you help in enlightening? ❤
Don't leave a job before you have another lined up if you can help it.
Suppose I need to make money quickly and I just need a job to survive, rather than a career type job. What do I do?
That's an excellent question! Many job hunters would like to know but few of the career experts or resume advice givers have any idea.
The only things I can think of are illegal, lol
I’m trying desperately to escape the restaurant/customer service industry. Looking for jobs is making me feel so useless outside of a kitchen.
Does this still apply to people with basically zero experience?
I feel only entry level jobs for with no experience. A job that requires skills before employment seem to never want people without specific skills.
I'm finding that companies don't want to pay you for your skills they only want to pay you just above minimum wage how are you going to pay rent???

For me, a gmail address is an automatic disqualifier.
FYI, many of the links in the description are broken.
Finding a job is like going to the dentist? Next video!
Hi
Going to the dentist is not that bad!
Going to the dentist is way, way more pleasant.
Lots of online opportunities that pay 25+ these old school employers don't wanna acknowledge that.
I love technology and how it makes our life easier. However, I will not thank the person who came up with this ATS system. When you say tailoring the CV, do you mean basically copying and pasting the wording used in the job description?
Is there any other way than Linkedin ?
For?
@@ALifeAfterLayoff as a platform to attract recruiters
There isn’t a better option for recruiter discoverability than LinkedIn. You can also use industry-specific tools like a GitHub or maybe Reddit. Perhaps a simple website. But a well-optimized LinkedIn presence will probably expose you to 95% more recruiters than other methods.
Yes.
I've been in tech for 8 years and have never gotten hired off of Linkedln. The truth is, most are trash job opportunities and annoying recruiters trying to sucker you into a job you don't like, you don't want or you aren't qualified for!
I think all the recruiters are resorting to head hunting tactics rather then doing some actual HR work
getting rejections?
these days you dont get anything if you didnt get the interview.
No. No. See, this is the problem. I look for jobs, but there is nothing in between "flip burgers" and "be an astrophysicist". I cannot under any circumstances to physical labour of any kind, given that I'm multiply disabled, so I MUST have a desk job, but I CAN'T GET a desk job because, like I say, the parameters of EVERY. SINGLE. SITE. I have been on are "fry cook" or "astrophysicist". There is no in-between.
