Are you tired of applying to L&D jobs and only getting rejections (or even worse, hearing NOTHING at all)?Chances are you're unintentionally putting yourself into what I like to call the "viscous application cycle." You apply for dozens of L&D roles (probably ones your unsure of or even overqualified for), only to receive rejection after rejection. You start to think..."If I'm not getting interviews for THESE roles, what AM I qualified to do?" and you continue down the path of throwing spaghetti at the wall, hoping that one of these roles (that you probably aren't even that jazzed about) calls you in for an interview! WOW, I'm exhausted just THINKING about that cycle. 😴The thing is, some of the well-meaning advice out there is actually perpetuating this cycle. Advice like:❌ The more jobs you apply to, the more interviews you'll get❌ Tailor your resume to every single role you apply to❌ You need to take "XYZ" course in order to be ready for a corporate L&D role...And so many more.In today's episode of The Overnight Trainer Podcast I break down why those well-intentioned tips aren't working for you and outline how to create a job search blueprint formula that gets you results.This is the same formula that took of my current clients from applying to underwhelming roles paying 60-70K per year (and hearing crickets) to getting SAME DAY CALL BACKS to roles paying 100-120k per year. THIS 👏 FORMULA 👏 WORKS!Make sure to listen to today's episode to see if you're making any of these mistakes, and learn how to make sure your job search is working for you, not the other way around!P.S. Doors are closing TONIGHT for the Nailing Your L&D Niche Live Workshop Series where I will be teaching you how to craft your job search blueprint so you can start seeing results like my client above!

Do you feel guilty over the fact that you've lost motivation towards your current role while you are looking for a new one? 😔If so, you are NOT alone! Today's The Overnight Trainer Podcast episode is brought to you by the current cohort of my 8-Week Group Coaching Program. This topic recently came up in a live coaching session, and we collectively agreed that everyone should be privy to this knowledge. In today's episode I cover:❓How to identify what you are even guilty about in the first place⚖️Balancing your energy and motivation so that you can successfully look for new roles without impacting the quality of your work🤡The FEAR that is typically driving the feeling of guilt (along with an exercise to quiet those fears)❤️ The fact that you are not that important (and why that's a GREAT thing)
