This Hack Will Bring Ease to Your Job Search

LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE:

In the job hunt, there’s so much pressure on reaching the ultimate goal of getting an offer for every role we apply for that oftentimes we forget to assess if the job is really a fit for us. We become overly attached to the outcome and the process, even at its earliest stages, has become so heavy – whether that’s due to salary anxiety, uncertainty about work culture, or a foreboding sense of rejection. We’ve been conditioned to overachieve and “be the perfect candidate” when applying for jobs. But what if your job search could be full of ease and aligned with what you bring to the table and are uniquely suited for? In this episode, Nikki explores a tactic inspired by dating professionals to stay present, embrace authenticity and keep your stress levels down as you find your next position.
