Make SHIfT Happen
Real talk about hiring, job searching, and what actually moves careers forward.
No corporate fluff. Just strategies that work.
Issue #008
What type of Jobseeker are you?
Three months ago, my client made a candidate an offer. Same pay. No wiggle room. The candidate passed.
Fair enough. I get it.
The Human SHIfT
Fast forward three months. That role is still open. My client comes back to me and says try them again. This time they came back with $10,000 more and three months of covered living expenses on the table.
The candidate and I agreed to reconnect after the weekend.
After the weekend came.
I reached out at our scheduled time.
No response. No email. No voicemail. No text. Nothing.
Now I'm sitting here asking myself a question I've asked a hundred times in 20 years of doing this work.
Would it really inconvenience you to say you're not interested?
That's it. That's all it takes. One message. Thirty seconds of your time.
Here's what I know
After two decades of placing people: how you show up in the process tells me everything about how you'll show up in the role.
There are different kinds of job seekers. Some are ready. Some are still figuring it out. And some are somewhere in the middle, doing one thing that's quietly costing them everything.
Which one are you?
Take the quiz and find out. Your archetype might surprise you.
Let's make some SHIfT happen.
