The secret to landing your next role isn't checking all the boxes, it's showing up with strategy and clarity.
In this insightful conversation, career coach and executive search consultant Gina Riley joins Diana Alt to explore why being qualified for a job isn’t enough to get hired and what actually does move the needle in your job search. Gina introduces her unique Career Velocity™ Framework, shares strategies for crafting a powerful unique value proposition (UVP), and explains why most people focus on the wrong things (like resumes!) way too soon.
They also get into the value of CliftonStrengths, using tools like UMAP, and the critical role of personal values in career decision-making. Gina even shares how she helped her Gen Z son navigate the job search and how those same techniques work at any level, from new grads to the C-suite.
You’ll walk away with new ideas, inspiration, and practical frameworks to elevate your job search and own your career story.
