If you’ve applied to 30, 60, or even 100+ roles, I understand why. Going wider feels safer. More applications should mean more chances to land an interview… right?
But what if a bigger job search is actually making you a weaker candidate?
In this episode, we’re talking about focus and what it really means when you’re searching for a senior-level role. Because focus does not mean choosing three companies and hoping for the best. And it also doesn’t mean applying to everything that “might be a fit”.
So what does a focused search actually look like? I’ll break it down and share how one of our clients changed her approach after a rejection—and went on to land a nearly $200K offer at the same company.
If your job search keeps getting wider but your results are not improving, this episode will help you rethink where your time and energy should actually go.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why applying to more roles can create a false sense of safety
How a broad search quietly weakens your positioning
What being focused actually means at the senior level
How to balance target companies with great opportunities already on the market
Why going deeper on fewer opportunities can make you a much stronger candidate
