You’ve likely heard the common scenario that happens to job seekers nowadays - they apply to over 100 jobs and get maybe one interview (more often 0!) Does anyone actually find a great role and get hired from job boards? It turns out - YES! Our client, Angie, found a role that fit her perfectly just sitting right there on Indeed.com, waiting for her it seemed. She applied, added a kick-a$$ cover letter (more on that in this episode), and landed an interview really quickly. And after just ONE(!) interview they agreed she was a perfect fit and offered her the job. You can find an amazing role on a job board, but it likely won’t happen by simply applying. So if you feel like you keep getting sucked into a black hole of infinite jobs, and you’re wondering how you can find that one role that fits you in the abyss — Angie’s career change story is a must-listen!

When you think about leaving your current company you likely imagine one of two scenarios — 1. Movie-worthy visions of lighting the office on fire, while flipping the bird, on the way out the door or 2. Your team branding you as an unforgivable enemy because you lit the office on fire and flipped them the bird without looking back 🙃 But leaving a job doesn’t have to mean burning bridges. You can escape your current job and find a much more fulfilling role without leaving your team or organization in a lurch. Think of this approach to a career transition as building bridges, not burning them. Scott shares actionable advice on how to approach your boss when you decide you need to make a change— including how to plan the meeting and exactly what to say in the conversation. He also gives examples of how to exit a company in the best way possible. Leaving a job can be done in a way that benefits everyone involved. It all comes down to how you approach those bridges (hint: leave the lighter fluid at home!) What you’ll learn

What’s the best way to determine if a different role or industry is right for you? Many people believe you must take huge risks to figure this out, but that’s not the case.

We are going to cover one of the most highly effective types of career experiments today: test driving conversations. This experiment will allow you to meet new people, quickly test new careers, and pave the way for creating your very own role custom-fit to you. To demonstrate how this experiment works firsthand, Scott walks through Laura Morrison’s career change (episode 213), and explains step-by-step how she test drove conversations that led to finding a role that was perfect for her.
