WARNING: Job Openings Are Dropping! Here’s How To Get Hired Anyway

Still applying to dozens (or hundreds) of jobs and hearing nothing back? There’s a reason it’s happening. New JOLTS data shows that job openings have dropped significantly across multiple industries since late 2024. Companies are slowing hiring—not because you’re not qualified, but because economic uncertainty is changing how they hire.

Here’s what that means for job seekers in 2025:

✅ More resumes per job = more competition

✅ ATS and AI filters are blocking qualified candidates

✅ Passive job searching is leading to silence

But here’s the good news: you don’t need to apply harder—you need to apply smarter. In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to adapt your job search strategy so you can stand out, even in a slowing market.

Watch now to learn:

✅ What the slowdown means for YOUR job search

✅ Why most job seekers are getting stuck in the application funnel

✅ And what to do differently to rise to the top
