How to Break the Cold Job Application Cycle: A Joy At Work Experiment

  • Summary

  • Assess how feeling career stuck is impacting you across ten areas of life - in 30mins. Then, decide what you want to do about it.

    --

    If you're spending valuable hours scrolling job boards or hitting the apply button on cold LinkedIn applications, it's time to rethink your job-seeking approach.

    Why?

    Because 75% of senior positions are filled through personal connections, not public posts. We could argue about that exact percentage, but the truth is clear, the majority of senior roles are secured before anyone ever thinks about posting a job advertisement.

    So, if you find yourself spending a lot of time looking at job adverts, what that suggests is that your personal network isn't strong enough to fill the remainder of your career with work that brings you joy.

    That might be a little bit harsh, but if this is the landscape, what can you do about it this week?
