Understanding Today’s Hiring Market
The world of hiring has shifted.
Vacancies may still be posted, but the mechanics of how roles are filled have changed.
Resumes get screened out earlier. Recruiters are overwhelmed. ATS systems filter signal before humans see it. And stronger candidates are often left wondering: “why am I not hearing back?” “Why isn’t effort translating to traction?”
This is a system problem.
In this live session, we’ll explore what’s going on beneath the surface of the job market and how you can build an application system that actually works, rather than just sending more resumes and hoping for responses.
What We’ll Cover
What’s really happening in the hiring market right now
Why traditional “apply more” tactics are failing
How recruiters and ATS change your odds before you hit “send”
What it means to systemise your applications beyond optimising them
How to track evidence, iterate, and improve with intention
Practical Tools & Frameworks You’ll See
This session draws on the same tools that WORK-SELF uses to help people move forward with clarity:
Career Assessment: understand how you actually work, not just what you do
Career Transition Blueprint: map alignment before you apply
30-Day Job Clarity Sprint: a practical, execution-focused process to bring structure to uncertainty
These are a frameworks that help you stop spinning and start acting with purpose.
