It's a Trap: What Admiral Ackbar Can Teach You About Your International Job Search (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's a trap. Not my words. Admiral Ackbar's. But also — absolutely — your international job application process. You find the posting. You tailor your resume. You hit submit. You hear nothing. You apply again. And again. And again. And you start wondering what's wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. You walked into a trap called ATS — Applicant Tracking System — the software that sits between your resume and an actual human being who could hire you. And if your resume doesn't speak its lang
The Two Words at the Top of Your Resume That Are Costing You International Job Opportunities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My official job title is a bunch of gibberish. Lead for BD... What is that. What does that mean. If you're a recruiter in Switzerland who's never worked in pharmaceutical business development and contract manufacturing — you have no idea.

And this is the most accurate description of what is happening in your international job search right now. You have been doing everything right — the resume, the cover letter, the applications, the follow ups. That's football. That's the game you know. But the moment you decided to land a job abroad you walked
You've Applied to Hundreds of Jobs Abroad and Heard Nothing. Here's Why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You've applied to a lot of jobs. Maybe hundreds. And you keep hearing nothing, or you get to the final round and they hire the local candidate, and you're starting to wonder what's wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. Your experience is not the problem. Your strategy is the problem. And that is actually the best possible news because strategy can be fixed. This week I'm starting a new arc focused entirely on landing a job abroad — and we're starting with mindset because none of the tactica
