Cinderella will go to the ball

Data Science.

It consumed me.

In my last job search it’s all I thought about.

Sure, I got an awesome job after 3 months.

All thanks to Tailored Projects.

But there’s a key thing I missed which would have made it a lot easier.

The job I got offered was the only one I had interviews for.

But I could have had a whole sack more if I exploited my interests.

I found jobs by scrolling LinkedIn and apply to ones I liked - the opposite of what I tell you lot to do now lol.

It would have been ideal if I’d researched which industries excited me and targeted those.

But that’s what my Hollywood stud of a client Damian did.

He was in biotech for ten years before working on challenging data projects.

So in his current job search he’s targeted data science jobs with a biotech spin.

And he’s a better fit than Cinderella’s shoe.

3 weeks into his hunt and he’s got his first interview!

That’s why you should plan what industries you want to work in instead of blindly easy-applying to everything on LinkedIn.

That’s why you should exploit your previous experince.

And even if there’s somewhere you’re burning to work but have no experience of the industry - that’s what Tailored Projects are for.

Tailored Projects will make you stand out in this tough, tough job market.

So measure twice, cut once - plan the industry you want to work in and build Tailored Projects for it.

P.S reply with your favourite industry and I’ll reply with a Tailored Project idea.
