Re: Working What No Longer Works in How We Look For Work

Agile Unemployment: Normalizing the Way We Talk About Being Out of Work

Welcome back to Agile Unemployment, where we break down the modern job search in a way that keeps you agile, informed, and empowered. Today, we’re exploring some dramatic changes in how we look for work, the tools we use, and how job seekers and organizations have had to rethink their strategies. This isn’t the job market of even a year ago—it's evolving fast, and so are we.

Episode Highlights:

1. A New Approach to the Job Search Mindset 💭

   • Then vs. Now: The old mindset was all about selling yourself to a company. Now, it’s about showing up as a whole person with purpose, values, and vision.

• • Shift in Self-Perception: Job seekers today are crafting personal brands, positioning themselves authentically, and moving beyond just “checking the boxes.”

How Recruiters and Hiring Managers Have Shifted 🎯

• • More than Just Skills: Employers are now looking beyond the resume, focusing on cultural fit, adaptability, and overall potential. The focus is on finding people who grow with the company.

• • Human-First Approach: Hiring managers are asking deeper questions to understand who candidates are, not just what they do. It’s a more holistic approach.

The Evolution of Job Search Tools and Tactics 🔧

• • AI and the Tech Revolution in Hiring: Tools have become sophisticated, from AI-driven resume scanners to virtual interview prep tools, making it essential for job seekers to stay on top of tech.

• • Social Media as Your Brand Hub: Platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and even TikTok are spaces where candidates can share insights, demonstrate skills, and make a memorable impression on potential employers.

• • A Response to Today’s Job Market Needs: At Re Working, we’re here because today’s job search requires an agile approach. We’ve built our business around helping job seekers and career changers navigate this new reality with the tools, strategies, and support they need.
