to the specifications that they're looking for. You know the keywords that are going to catch your resume and cover letter, but just make sure that they reflect your true personality and your experience and customize each application to the job and the company. Don't have one resume and just send it out. You're not going to get the job. Be authentic. I had a job that was posted.

I'm done the interviews. I submitted my shortlist and I have eight incredible candidates. This person emailed me an hour before my shortlist meeting with the client. And the shortlist meeting is very intense because they're asking you a ton of questions about the people that you've interviewed and you need to be on. You need to be really good.

So an hour before I looked at my email and this person emailed me. She said, I know that you are probably finished the search and you've probably talked to your client. And so I don't want to interrupt your process. And she was thinking of me when she was emailing. But I would really, this job speaks to me. And if they don't find the person in this go around, I would love to be considered.

She didn't demand anything. She didn't call and leave a message on my machine. She just said this. And I said, can you talk right now? And I talked to her for 15 minutes. She took the risk. She just put herself out there. And I said, I'm going to put you forward. I don't even, I haven't even interviewed you. I don't even know you. But I get such a great sense from you.

I'm going to put you on the list and tell them about my conversation and that I think that they should consider meeting you. And they are. She's going to get an interview, even though it was really shut down. So it's putting yourself out there and going after. So if you see him, you wouldn't believe how many times I say to people that are looking for jobs, I'll say. I've been here my entire life.

I have not left the east coast of Canada. And so my network is very deep and broad. And I will say to people, look, before you apply for a job, contact me. And just in case I know somebody there, because I can make a warm introduction. And very few people take me up on that. And I'm always excited. Because they know me, they know I'm genuinely meaning this. Very few people do.

And I'm always curious as to why, because I'm happy to help them. So if you're going to apply for a job, go into LinkedIn, see who you know that's connected to anybody in the company and go that route first. Find out, do research. Don't just apply for the job.
