We covered so many recruiting and life areas with Jared. Some of the key points included:
● Employees are redefining companies and the market overall, which has impacted how you go about your job search.
● In 2023 and beyond, people are being asked to return to the office setting, which many will not return to, creating an almost layoff point for many.
● There is no perfect solution to the emotional roller coaster a job search puts you through; the best is to be intentional when applying for jobs and not just chase open positions out there.
● Jared believes there is a job out there for everyone, but there is only one you, so be selective and targeted in your approach.
● It would be best for your job search to find networks and support groups to help and grow with you.
● The importance of giving and not just taking in your networking efforts.
Jared is savvy in many recruiting, HR, and technology tools and techniques. You will see how he has been a disruptive force in the enterprise software hiring industry and will learn from his experiences and the work he has done. Enjoy!
