If your job search feels exhausting, overwhelming, and like nothing is working - know that you’re not the only one feeling this way. You’re applying to anything that might fit… tweaking your resume at the last minute… and crossing your fingers for a reply.

But here’s the problem: when you apply to everything, you stand out nowhere. A scattered job search doesn’t just waste your time, it drains your energy, leads to burnout, and sends a clear signal to employers that you’re not intentional.

In this episode, I’ll show you how the most successful job seekers are getting real traction by narrowing their focus and following a smarter plan. We’re diving deep into:

▶️ How to build a target list of 10–20 companies you actually want to work for.
▶️ How to research and connect with key decision-makers on LinkedIn .
▶️ How to personalize your resume and outreach messages so they actually get read.
