Welcome everyone to 'Career Hacks Unplugged!' I’m Sam, and here with me is my partner in crime, Alex!

Alex

Thanks, Sam! Today, we're diving into how to stand out in this wild job market where you're competing against folks from around the globe!

Sam

The job market is so competitive now. It’s like trying to win a race when the finish line is in another country!

Alex

Absolutely! Plus, with AI scanning resumes, your application could disappear faster than my leftovers at a potluck!

Sam

Speaking of resumes, let’s talk optimization! Use the right keywords, or your resume is just a fancy piece of wallpaper!

Alex

And don’t even think about using fancy fonts. ATS will reject it quicker than I reject a gym membership!

Sam

Now onto personal branding! Create a LinkedIn profile that shouts, 'Hire me!' louder than a toddler at a toy store!

Alex

Exactly! And don’t forget to engage! It's like dating; if you ghost your connections, they’re not coming back!

Sam

Networking isn’t dead! It's more alive than my grandma at bingo night. You have to connect, attend events, and not just scroll on your phone!

Alex

Right! What’s your go-to networking move, Sam? Mine is to pretend I know what I’m talking about until someone asks me a question!

Sam

And let’s not forget interviews! You’ve got to prepare like it’s an Olympic sport—because trust me, it feels like one!

Alex

So true! Just don’t wear a suit that looks like it was borrowed from a scarecrow. It’s all about first impressions!

Sam

Any job seekers in the audience? Raise your hand if you’ve ever sent a resume into the void! I see you all! The void is so popular!

Alex

To wrap it up—optimize your resume, build your personal brand, and get networking. You’ll be that star candidate in no time!
