Slow Down to Speed up in your Job Search, with Adriane Jones

Check out the podcast on Macslist here: ( ) Here's the job search paradox: the faster you apply, the longer it takes. Career coach Adriane Jones has watched candidates send out hundreds of applications and land right back where they started. On this episode of Find Your Dream Job, she makes the case for slowing down first. Adriane walks through four steps to get clear on what you want before you start applying: look inward, step away from your screen, do a time audit, and have conversations with people in roles that interest you. She also tackles the tension between needing a job now and finding work that feels like a longer-term fit. When you know what you're after, the search gets shorter, the interviews get easier, and the outcome gets better.
