Planning to work in the field of jurisprudence? Difficulties of the profession

For those who work as a practicing lawyer, it is no secret that work in the field of jurisprudence is complicated and tiring. And this applies to lawyers of all ranks and stripes, ranging from a public servant to an attorney in private practice.

This also applies to an ordinary lawyer in a small company and a managing partner in a large corporation. The question is how profitable is the work in the field of jurisprudence and how much this profit pays for the expenditure of time and effort. What is the key that opens the door to a world of successful and wealthy lawyers and law firms? This question can be answered by dividing lawyers into several categories. We will not take public service into account, given that the path to enrichment there most often goes beyond the limits of the law. Lawyer is very responsible job and if you want to apply you should make perfect resume, with this task resume writing service https://legaljobsearcher.com will help you.

So, the first category is ordinary lawyers practicing in private law firms. Currently, in Russia and Ukraine in particular, the employer (law firm) requires maximum costs and energy from his employees. Full-time, in large companies, as a rule, work out of hours, going to work on weekends ... And this list can be supplemented. What ultimately get ordinary lawyers in our time? Most often, these are small salaries, below average earnings. Yes, unfortunately, we have to admit the fact that the main source of capital accumulation in the company is the time and effort of the company employees. The more a lawyer runs through government agencies, the more he draws up statements of claim and contracts, the more profit the company will ultimately receive. Hence, it should be recognized that the bulk of the profit (and this is not less than 80 percent) goes to the account of the employer, advisers and the management of the company. And ordinary lawyers, who literally carry out almost all the work, do not receive even twenty percent of the profit that they could get by doing this work “for themselves”.

The second category is senior lawyers, lawyers who have worked for more than one year in one company and advisors to firms. Senior lawyers are valued and respected. The employer knows that a person who has worked as a senior lawyer already understands it at a glance. This is a person who practically does not make mistakes and has his own established connections in government bodies. With regard to remuneration in this category, usually the salary of a senior lawyer (or a lawyer with experience) exceeds the average, taking this limit to a tangible and decent salary. But it should be borne in mind that time and effort have to be spent even more. Responsibility increases in proportion to the amount of salary paid. Advisers to law firms is a special category that can receive both miserable, ridiculous amounts of fees for consulting, and huge fees, only for using your name in advertising a law firm or for a one-time appearance in court. This category is the most intellectual among lawyers, since almost all advisers are engaged in scientific activities and have academic degrees, ranging from assistant professor, candidate, ending with heads of departments in law schools and doctors of law.

Most often, they do not stop at one company and advise two or three companies at the same time. The last category, which deserves the closest attention in the analysis of profit distribution in the business sector in jurisprudence, is employers, directors, owners of law firms and corporations. At present, it is fashionable to use the words “partner”, “managing partner of a law firm”. But this does not change the essence of the matter, because it is these people who share all the profit that the law firm receives, distributing it among themselves and other employees of the firm.

The profit that a law firm can get depends on the number of clients and the complexity of the tasks performed. But in any case, this is a lot of money, most often measured in tens of thousands of conventional units per month, or even in hundreds. At the same time, the director of the law firm himself mainly communicates with clients, is engaged in the search for new solvent clients. Also, and this is natural, he performs the functions of control over the work of other employees of the company and checks their work. The most complex and highly paid tasks are performed directly by himself or with partners or senior lawyers.

Among the advantages that can be distinguished in the activities of the managerial staff of law firms are the availability of free time, more creative work, the presence of connections at all levels in the system of government bodies. As for profit, it is directors and partners of law firms who are the main stream of money. And already after the distribution of money between them, a small part goes as remuneration to other employees of the companies. As a result, it can be noted that business and work in the field of jurisprudence can bring good profits and fees. But in any case, in order to feel this profit and fees, you must be at the top of this symbolic pyramid. However, you can get to this top in one way, only by sacrificing the most valuable that a person has - his time. And only by giving your business to foreigners your time, measured in months and years, you can take a worthy place in the field of law, proudly calling yourself a partner, adviser or director of a law firm.

All you need to do is put your question in the chat which one I'm not looking at you I'm looking over here the secret is to make sure. That you put the word question in all caps beforehand. That way I can pick your question out of the crowd and the one thing I do need to tell. You is that I cannot guarantee. That I can can answer every question. They go really fast here so. I just grab the questions. That I see you want. Each and every. One of your personal career job search questions answered by a trained professional then your solution is to join. Us at work at daylian. You don't know what we are. This is your first time subscribing or checking us out. I really hope.

You take a second or two. Because we are the number. One online career coaching platform. That is affordable and accessible and you'll hear. More about that and even get a special offer for today by attending office hours ok alright so enough on the public service announcement let's get down to the good stuff of answering some questions first. One that's up on the screen for me is from lim Z. What is the best way to overcome the have. You managed people requirement. I have had a direct report in the past but mostly deadline reports and lots of cross-functional team management ooh. That is a trick question so the first thing I'm gonna do here is armchair quarterback. This and say. That any of you out there. That are thinking about career growth know that being able to manage people is a huge plus it's a huge asset so. If you're ever at a job. Where there's the possibility to get promoted from within to manager lead people. You should take. That opportunity and the reason. That's because. This is the situation. That lim is now dealing with.

You have a lot of individual contributor rules or rules. Where maybe. You had dotted line reporting that's great but no one's ever going to equate. That to the direct experience of having managed a group of people so my advice would be to get into a position. You can grow and get promoted into a managerial role. Where actually managing direct reports multiple direct reports. That is by far the easiest and cleanest way to do. This but if. You can't if you're really trying to make the switch right now you're going to have to try to exemplify real great experience is where. It was the equivalent to managing a group of people and I want. You to think about the common challenges. That employers face so. One thing that you should know is if you're applying for these jobs it's a management role you're gonna ask questions like. What are some of the typical challenges. That managers face in this job or what qualities are. You looking for in a manager for this particular role. You ask those clarifying questions the employer is going to explain to you exactly. What comes up in that workplace and then hopefully.

You can pull experiences from your own past and tie them to them so an example might be. You know we need a manager who's really good with conflict resolution. We have a lot of situations. Where employees are. You know have different points of view and we need them to all get on the same page okay so they've explained the problem. What you can do isn't go back and say well. You know well. I haven't managed a large group of people. I was responsible for a group of customers. That would have a lot of problems and here's how. I would solve those conflicts or you know. I was a head of a project team and while the people weren't my direct reports there were times. One project member and another didn't agree. This is how. I would work through. It by focusing on the conflict resolution as the source of the problem you're taking the emphasis off the fact. That you don't have. That direct management experience and proving that you have the skill. That the employer was seeking all along so to recap ideally your situation should be to get into an organization and get promoted into a management role.

You cannot do. That and you're trying to break into management you're going to have to do a lot of clarifying a lot of questioning of the employer to find out the aspects are the traits of management. That are most important to them in the role and then try to pull experiences from your own past and tie them to them to validate the fact. That in spite of that direct management experience. You actually do have those skills okay. All right wish. You luck on that good luck next questions from Mia hey Mia. It says do I need to customize my resume and cover letters for each online job. I apply to I find myself rewriting my resume and cover letters so the answer to that is um kind of sort of what do. I mean by that so. You are a member of our program Mia. We have a very clear-cut resume tutorial and cover letter tutorial. That you go and you essentially create a master resume and a master cover letter. You have these you will customize them for each job. You apply to but not the entire thing in the case of the resume.

We have a very specific section called the top fold. We show how to customize the headline and the key skills that's an information in that top fold so. That the first six seconds. That a recruiter or hiring managers looking at the resume they're seeing what they need to see to screen. You in instead of screening out same thing with the cover letter in our experience it's that first paragraph of the cover letter. That gets customized from a storytelling standpoint and then the rest of it is oftentimes the same. Once members of our program have figured out. How to do this it's not very hard to customize and you actually enjoy. Because you know that the rate of return the chances. That people are gonna respond to is even higher. Because you're already working with two documents. That we've helped. You create that are truly dynamics so the answer is yes but it shouldn't be as much as you're you're mentioning here there shouldn't be a full rewrite every single time you're applying if you've done your resume and your cover letter correctly it's just minor edits to tightly match. You to the to the job. That you're applying to okay.

All right let's see comment from Jeffrey let's see is it right to walk away from a meeting when your boss humiliates. You in front of your workmates because of poor performance so. I think the question Jeffrey is you know walking away in the middle of the meeting is you know essentially. You being disrespectful to the process. You might say my boss is being disrespectful to me. Because he humiliated. Me in a meeting but let's remember you're being paid to do a job so. This is where my advice is not going to be. That welcomed you're being paid to do a job your boss has chosen to let. You know that you didn't do your job correctly okay. You don't like the way your boss is presenting this information. It I wouldn't. Either it's embarrassing but this is a situation. That you need to fix so instead of saying why me why is this happening to me this isn't fair let's focus on what you can do to fix the problem. I would say. You sit through the meeting you're polite you're quiet right but then. You set a meeting with your boss and you sit down and say. You know I really didn't like being publicly humiliated in front of the team. What can we do to make sure. That that doesn't happen again. What can I do to make sure. That doesn't happen again. How can we work together so. That you can let. Me know you feel I'm underperforming before. It comes to the point. That you tell. It in front of everybody in the organization which was really embarrassing to me.

Office Hours: The Interview & Hiring Process, Career Change, Resume, Cover Letter & More! - 2

How can we work through. This together and you're gonna get. Some feedback on you know maybe communicating sooner. That there are problems are keeping people informed or making sure. That you're doing certain procedures right be ready with open ears to get the feedback but ultimately know that you're trying to work towards the solution of not having this happen again. I can say that to you Jeffrey and maybe. This is just a situation. You have an uncompromising boss who likes to bully like CEO. That this is never gonna change so my theory here is you do. What I said with the what but if. It happens again in spite of you trying to fix. If there becomes a pattern. This is how.

This boss operates then. You need to recognize. This might never change you've tried it's not working and then. I would look for a new job. Because this is clearly not the type of environment. You want to be in so first step try to work through. It look at what you can do second step. It continues in spite of that effort it's time to move on alrighty. What else do. We have here. What question from Evelyn Evelyn says does work. It daily or even networking work for those who are done or almost done with college I'm just entering college at 25 years old and I would like to prepare so I'm. I think the question is I'm just entering college at 24 okay so yeah. I think that the question is whether. It works and I'm gonna say yes. You to think of it this way college no college before college after college during college school teaches. You everything except.

How to get a job and build a career that's not. What they're there to do people go and they study majors in college but show. Me one place. You can get an undergraduate or graduate degree in career planning or in job search planning unless you're becoming a counselor my point is this is not a skill set. That we get developed unfortunately it's a very important skill set. These days especially with the fact. That every job is temporary so yes. We work for everyone at every there's a set of skills. That you need to learn and understand about job search and career development. That most people don't possess and you know that's why we have the mantra or work. It daily first of all everyone that's sitting here today there's hundreds of you I can see by the headcount. You should reach around right now pat yourself on the back the mere fact. That you had the self-awareness to attend a live office hours on career help and job search advice means you're an open learner means. You look to grow you're not set in your ways and you're not limited and so understanding that about yourself means. You also know that. You just work at it every day.

You were to carve out 10 or 15 minutes a day to work on your career. Whether it's inside work your daily. Because that's what we designed. It to do or somewhere else. You are going to advance. That is the truth but the majority of people don't do. That a lot of people finish colleges say. I never want to read. Another book again. I never want to have to study again. It doesn't work. That way folks. You want to grow. It anything in your life. You have to work. It daily it's called habits and so yes the answer is we can help. You but more importantly the message. Everyone to get here is that by working it daily. You can make. Anything happen. You can achieve almost. Anything because. Most people give up and that's really the big difference ok let's say miss blue ocean says should. I include a job on my resume. That lasted only three months.

I voluntarily resigned to done ethical business practices taking place thank you oh great question so a couple things. You need to know about that. You worked at a company three months then. They would show up on a background check so. If you're in an industry or attire apply to jobs. They do background checks and it's going to come up. That you got a w-2 and that you worked at that employer for three months and there's nothing worse. Than getting all the way through the hiring process and they say it's just pending the background check and all of a sudden the hiring manager says ah. You said that you weren't working but you were at this place for three months. What happened. Now no matter. What you look at fall plain and simple HR is immediately going to assume. You have something to hide. Because you did.

You hid something so my honest advice is to put. It on there. I was over there three weeks three months. I would list the accomplishments. That you've got using the format. That we teach inside work at daily and I think. They asked why you were there three months. You find the right polite highroad way to say. You know I got there and it turned out to not be. What I thought. It was going to be and I knew the right thing to do was to not stay. I didn't want them to canoe to train. Me I didn't want them to continue to invest in me. That I could not stay there long term and as hard as. It was to quit a job. Because that's an income. I just knew for my own sake. That I needed to do. That it was a powerful lesson and I think the thing you need to know is that.

You share that you quit a job folks it's very important. That you explain why it will never happen again. Because the moment an employer here is that. When the going got tough yeah. You got going meaning you left they're gonna assume well gee the moment. Something bad happens here are. You gonna quit. Us too so you really have to reassure them. That hey this was a once-in-a-lifetime thing I learned a huge lesson from this I really learned. That I needed to pay. More attention in the hiring process ask very specific questions and make sure. That I have clear expectations. I don't expect. Any employee to be perfect. I know that it's work but if. This was a very unique case it's never happened to me before and I'm going to make sure.

That it never happens to me again and that's why I'm so excited to be working for you. Because I can tell. You right now just based on that previous experience. It gets made. More excited about working for you. Because you really check. All the boxes of the things. That we're not represented properly at my last employer so you're gonna tie. It all the way back to them and how excited. You are to be there but most importantly. How you're gonna make sure. This never happens again folks. Because I'm telling you anytime. We hear somebody up and quit a job without. Another job to back. It up we're immediately wondering why was. It so bad or was. It you just couldn't hack. It and that's the thing that hiring managers have to consider HR and recruiters have to consider so.

Office Hours: The Interview & Hiring Process, Career Change, Resume, Cover Letter & More! - 3

ou have to have a very good answer for that okay so. I always tell people don't quit. You absolutely have to I know. If it's unethical. If it's difficult. We can't change. You know what to do but going forward. I always try to find another job before. You quit a job folks. Because it's difficult to explain okay let's see Nancy says. If a job you applied to you had two interviews four and has been put on hold until April. When should. You send a follow-up note to get in front of the hiring manager so. If they tell. That it's been put on hold until April.

I would wait until mid-april. You want to give them some time to work through. You literally say it's April 3rd let. Me check in little too eager and Nancy. I think the fact. That you came here and asked first means. You knew that your gut instinct told. That might be too soon followed trust. That gut instinct. It was the right instinct. You want to wait till midway through the month and then. You can check in and see and it's just a simple email and a little extra bonus advice here Nancy. What I would do is not lead with hey I'm just checking in to see. If the you know the jobs still available that's a little too eager instead. What I would do is add value so find a great article or video. Something that you know they'd be interested in based on the interviews.

That you had and send. It to them and say. You know I came across. This I thought of all of you I thought of our conversations. I know the jobs on hold please let. Me know anything changes I'd love to still be considered boom. All right so just accept. What it is and add. Some value and you should be in good shape ok. All right let's see questions so. I stop here just a little friendly reminder folks. You haven't seen. It already we have a special discount code for those of you participating today. If you're somebody that's been coming to office hours every week getting a question answered occasionally and wondering whom should. I join now's the time come join. Us and see the power of having a career coach in your back pocket it's pretty awesome ok.

All right let's see. What other questions do. We have here phowa says from your perspective. How much weight does online assessments and personality tests play in hiring decisions well. I can tell if an employer is utilizing one of these tests they're spending good money on them so therefore they're going to use them so in their particular situation. It will have an impact. Now have I seen companies. That in spite of a personality test. That doesn't match hire. They do but it's it's rare normally. Most companies are going to adhere to whatever they got in the results. Because their company is forcing them to because again they're spending huge amounts of dollars on implementing these personality tests so my advice to you is you can always research.

These tests online find out the name of the test prior to taking it do your homework online. I would also encourage. You to go over to the company's Glassdoor page and get the tab on interviewing at that employer lots of times people will tell. You all about the test and whether or not. They passed. It and what kind of impact. It had on them getting hired that's also gonna give. You a lot of insight into. That personality test and how to do. It and then. You know my last bit of advice is to be careful with those tests on they're looking for extremes so. I tell people. You know answer from the employers perspective. What do you think the perspective the employer would want to hear be self-aware that's the most important thing you can do in those tests okay and if you're right it's a match great. If not then. It wasn't meant to be okay great questions today team great questions be farber hello. This is I had to volunteer. You resign after 10 months.

Any feedback on constructing the answer you've been at the job longer so. You had to voluntarily resign after 10 months you're going to want to be able to explain why you chose to resign and so plain and simple. Because they're gonna want to be able to do a reference check and and you're gonna want those answers to sync up so. One thing I would tell. You is if you haven't already is have. Someone do a reference check on the employer and find out. What they're saying when people call in and do a reference check on you and that way. You can make sure. That your answer is consistent with theirs so you're going to explain why you resigned. You want to be able to articulate. What they're gonna say. When people call and you've got to talk about how you've grown through the experience. Once again experience learn and grow.

I feel like. We harp on that all the time here but it is a model. That is proven and works and you'll learn. You do our interview prep which is literally like stealing the hiring managers playbook I'm telling you. You haven't taken our interview prep course inside work. It daily it's a must-do innit. We walk you through the most common questions you're gonna get and how. You craft these experience learn and grow out answers so Bonnie you're going to talk about why you're there for 10 months. What led to you deciding to voluntarily resign. What you learned from the experience and how you're gonna make sure. It never happens again that's the thing every hiring manager wants to hear folks. They want to hear. How you're going to make sure.

That that doesn't happen to them they don't want. You voluntarily quitting on them so talk about what you've learned to make sure. That won't happen okay. All right great question Darren's asking a question. How lengthy should a Linkedin headline be should. You max 120 character max with listing of skills Darin yes absolutely. I don't think. I can reinforce. This enough to people there are over 660 million people. Now on LinkedIn probably close to 700 million the way the LinkedIn algorithm works is very similar to searching on any other Internet platform it's using keywords and this concept of keyword density so. Some people say oh it's not true but it's the best way for me to describe. I am looking for somebody with skills in digital marketing and they I want them to live in Anchorage Alaska.

I will go into LinkedIn and use the recruiting software tool which recruiters are spending about 10 grand a year on and I'll put in Anchorage Alaska and I'll put in digital marketing what it will do is sort through the candidates and look for candidates. That have that key skill set so they've got skills and endorsements it's in their work history but most importantly is it in their headline. It is in their headline. They will rank higher in the search results. Because in LinkedIn's algorithms mind the fact. That you put. It in your headline means it's pretty darn important to you so choosing the right five or six key skill sets. That you know recruiters are searching heavily on for your skill set is what you want to get in your headline. You want to maximise and use every every character. That you can. I encourage. Everyone to do and you want to do. That with a vertical line divider in between. Now the other thing which you didn't ask about Darren but I want to mention. It and it's some research. That we're doing here within our executive program is hash tags so hash tagging has become.

Office Hours: The Interview & Hiring Process, Career Change, Resume, Cover Letter & More! - 4

Something new on LinkedIn. You can search on hashtags. You can follow hashtags on LinkedIn and so for some of you there's a real opportunity to hashtag certain key skillsets not necessarily. All throughout your headline you're not going to do. All hash tags in your headline but there might be. One or two key skill sets. That you want a hash tag in the headline or at the very least in your summary and if. You follow our summary process inside. We have a LinkedIn tutorial inside work your daily and we teach. How to write a very short succinct summary with a list of key skill sets. You could hashtag there.

You could also increase the chances. That you show up in more search results which the more search results. You show up in the more popular. It just kind of feeds on itself so in addition to maximizing your headline Darren I'm also gonna suggest. That you start to explore hash tagging some of those key skill sets for improved search ability on your LinkedIn profile okay. All right great question well let's see here Sinha says after 20 years of working for the same company. I was made redundant and now would like to start contracting however. It all seems contracts go through to those with a history of contract work. What do I do oh that's a great question so um. What I would Center. What I would suggest. You do first of all is sign up with.

Some of the staffing agencies. That are placing contractors so do your homework and find out. Some of them started and I would try to set a meeting and say after 20 years I'm looking at getting into contracting can. You know we talk. What you want to do is research the best ones for your skill set. You don't want to apply to every staffing agency out there. Because that then. They all know that you're at all of them and nobody wants to place. You so do your homework in fact ask. Some contractors. I would make a bucket list of contractors find 10 contractors. That are doing the contracting that you want to do and ask them. They got started. What agencies. They use what agencies have been coming to them with good opportunities. You should be able to ferret. That out and then. I would go ahead and see. You can't work with. One or two of them to start and the other thing that you want to do is build.

That network with existing contractors. Because a lot of times. They get contracted or contacted for jobs and they're on assignment already or the assignment doesn't sound attractive to them but if they know that you're looking to break into contracting they'd probably throw. It your way. Because it really helps them to be able to help. That customer out so the customer thinks of them again in the future so. I would definitely look at that as well and then lastly there are. Some websites out there. That you can check out so obviously freelance coms been around for a long time and you can check them out and also there's a company called remote comm and you know full disclosure I've actually advised. That company prior to it being remote the folks. Now run it I their company so um. I can't you know say good or bad things. Either way other.

Than they're out there and they're. Another resource for you to check out for remote contract work okay but don't give up it's just a matter of breaking in and and for you it's about networking with actual contractors and with the staffing agencies. That place them in order to get. That first gig and then. You do your problem is solved. All right mo mo mo mo Edie. That actually. I used to call my daughter moment. She was a little kid should. You include your C ease and certifications from LinkedIn learning on your profile sure why not absolutely. I think there are people. That search for that do. I think it should go in your headline no can. It go in your summary sure there's a very specific way. That you do. That you put the certifications in there in a list format and also. They have a section for certifications.

That you could add in there so. I would definitely do. That they're they're great things. I just wouldn't make them front and center and lead with them. Because they have credibility but not as much credibility say is a degree or a practical work experience in your area of expertise okay Lola says with recent interviews. I found that interviewers explaining the company history is this becoming a common trend. I always do my research beforehand ha ha ha ha. You know so. I think it's more the fact. That most hiring managers don't know how to interview well to be honest with. You they don't in the same way there's no course. That we all take in job search the majority of hiring managers have never been properly trained in interview techniques and so. They get in there and they do. What was done to them in a former life and they feel time by telling you the company story and feeling like. They need to fill the void for you so.

You just need to smile and nod and what you can say at some point in time is oh. You know I did my homework on you and I read about that or you know. I was researching your company on the internet so. You can add in some things to validate. What they're saying but if hiring manager is really intent on telling you the story just go with. It ok smile and nod and be enthusiastic but it does happen and it's usually. Because they're not. That skilled Christian says is job hopping still a thing that impedes careers or interviews do employers value loyalty or varied experience great question Kristen the answer of course is it depends which is not the answer.

That you were looking for so. Most jobs last about eighteen months to two years so. You do see people moving from place to place but I do think. That historically. What we're looking for is career progression so. You were moving every three years but the job title was growing each and every time or where. You were going let's say. You started someplace and it was maybe smaller and then. You moved to a larger better well-known organization and then. You move to a higher level position and a higher level position they're not gonna have as much of an issue with.

That you've been job jumping and your job title isn't changing you're essentially plateauing in my mind. That becomes a concern so my advice to anybody out there is to think about your career from a progression standpoint. I want to be. More skilled in two years. I want to create. More value in two years. What does that job title look like. What does that position look like. I go after that position and most importantly is that possible within the company. That I'm in because the best weighted job jump is within the same company to be able to say. That I was there six or eight years but I change jobs every two years or every 18 months that's fantastic people love. That means you were a versatile player means.

Office Hours: The Interview & Hiring Process, Career Change, Resume, Cover Letter & More! - 5

You were appreciated. You were valued and you were moved throughout the company so. That type of job jumping is a never questioned job jumping where. We see progression in the title. You getting higher and higher and higher that's never an issue job jumping where the job title doesn't change and it just moves over and over again that's a red flag to employers and to recruiters okay. All right great question by the way let's see. What are the best search options for industry specific recruiters that's a great question. I personally would tell. You to use a free website.

That we mentioned here. All the time called recruit innet so it's the word recruit then. All one word recruit and net it's a website. That will let. You search by industry and by job title and it will give. You a list of LinkedIn profiles so in your case. You would search industry. You would search recruiter for the job and you would see. What would come up and you can add in more criteria too. You can even start to look for specific companies certain industries or agencies and find them it takes a little searching but once. You find that then.

You can reach out to them you can customize the connection request and get in touch but that's probably the single best way I've seen people be able to identify those Jennifer says. I was in a CSR leadership for several years. I have had no luck finding a remote position. I keep getting looked over despite having my resume professionally written. Where am I going wrong okay so Jennifer. I don't know enough about your job search right now but based on what I'm reading here. It sounds like you're applying to a lot of places online and you're not getting any response. If that's the case the reality is that's you and everybody else less.

Than three percent of people ever get contacted for jobs. That they apply to online especially. When you're talking about remote work. All of those jobs are gotten via networking you need a very targeted bucket list of employers. That you know hire for your skill set and that you know. You want to work for it and you know why you want to work for them and some specific reasons why not. Because they've got great benefits or you heard their wonderful place to for work but because. You respect and admire the work. That they're doing and can really talk to it from a knowledgeable standpoint. Once you've got. That list and this is what we teach. You in our job search plan then your job is to craft resumes and cover letters.

That are disruptive and that you will work to get in the actual hands of people at the company in order to get noticed may sound like a lot of work but let. Me tell you something it is far less work. Than the work. That I see people doing every day. They sit there and get blurry eyed looking for jobs. That they try to fit themselves into spending hours filling out online applications and then feeling completely defeated and depressed and unworthy. They don't hear. Anything back. We want you to conduct a proactive job search. Because it makes. You feel in control. It gives you power and more importantly. It lets you get a job at your dream company. I mean every single day. We have people inside our program saying I just landed an interview.

I was just told is the best cover letter they'd ever read. I just got my dream job at a bucket-list employer. This is the kind of stuff. We hear every day and work at daily it's fantastic and the reason is a nos. I would love to say its asset isn't it's the fact. That the folks. That use us are taking control of their job so my friend. You are worthy. You are valuable. You are talented. It is your process. That is not working it is not. You it is your process and so. You really got to disrupt your process and use the techniques. That are gonna get. You in front of the right people okay. All right Deirdre says my position was eliminated in December.

What is an employer going to think of the fact. That it has been three months and I still haven't found a job well Deirdre. I don't know. Where you're located but a couple of Statistics to consider the average job search in America is about nine months and that's generally. Because people don't know how to job search just. You know the other statistic that's pretty staggering is that for every $10000. That you want to make over $40000 a year. You need to add. Another month to your job search so. You know job job search can take in our program for example we've seen people anywhere from two months to six months but if you're looking for a job that's paying 70 80 90 thousand dollars then those jobs aren't a dime a dozen and so.

You have to factor in that it's going to take longer to find them so three months doesn't seem like a long time at all to me and I can tell. That recruiters don't look at that. Either historically research shows after about the six-month mark is the first signs of hesitation. That recruiters have about gee why have. You been out of work and after nine months then. It starts to become a lot. More questions around why do. You think it's taking you so long to find a job so you're clearly not. Even there you got. Another three months no problem and depending on the skill level. That you're at and the amount of salary you're looking to make.

That really could vary that's why you know. One can ever tell. You or guarantee. That you're going to get hired in 30 days or in 60 days. We can't do. It nobody can do. Because each one of you is so incredibly different. That being said. What you can control is how. You are going about this job search process are. You being efficient are. You being proactive do. You have a plan do. You have a bucket list is your resume designed to be six-second worthy are your cover letters disruptive is your LinkedIn profile keyword optimized is your interview prep done do. You have the answers to behavioral questions see. What I mean about job search is a skill and we're not taught to do. It there are. Some serious components here and the sooner. You get on top of all those opponents the more efficient. You can be which can reduce the time.

It takes you to find that position okay so. That helps there's a lot of moving parts there but we control. What we can control and that's what we're. All about it work at daily okay. All right team I'm sorry. I can't believe it's gone so fast here. We didn't get to all the questions. You know what to do come join. Us come join.
