That happens all the time.
When people end up in my virtual office as a career coach asking me, like, how can I tell if there's an internal candidate or how can I tell if there's a ghost job?
It's this desire to have some sort of agency over the process so that we can feel some level of control over this thing that is huge.
Not being able to pay your bills because you've been laid off and you've been grinding at this application process for six months and you still haven't gotten there.
Anything that will make you feel like you have a semblance of control is worth trying to
grab onto, even if it is not real.
So I go at it from two levels.
I go from the emotional identity level, like how does this interact with how you see yourself and what emotions are showing up for you in this process?
Is any of that interfering with the process?
And then from a very, very tactical perspective, we do an audit of the job search to understand how they are approaching every single stage.
Because often I'll find that people have diagnosed the problem incorrectly, that I
I need your help.
Phoebe, can you help me redo my resume?
I'm getting to the mid-stages and then I just lose out on these opportunities.
That's not a resume problem.
The only job the resume has is to get you a callback.
If you are losing out in the middle of the process, then we actually need to look at your interview process.
So a lot of folks are not...
prepared to look at all of the moving pieces in a job search and figure out where they actually do have agency, where they might be able to actually do something a little bit differently and move the needle.
And so that's why it is so important to not do this alone, because someone who's outside of you, especially if they have some hiring experience, is going to be able to do a better job than you might be because of the identity things and the emotional things that are tied up, helping you understand where you actually do have control.
