Reevaluate Your Strategy

Much of the job application process is out of the candidate’s control, but those who are really struggling to land their dream job are encouraged to take a hard look at their strategy and consider what mistakes they might be repeating.

It can be how they talk about the old boss/company, something in the résumé or the interview style.

They can:

  • Reevaluate their résumé and application materials.
  • Ask for assistance from friends and family. Trying a few practice interviews with those who can provide honest feedback.
  • Do not talk negatively about a prior employer.
