Your goal every day when you are looking for a job has to be focused on scheduling interviews. If you don’t date, you don’t get married. If you don’t interview, you won’t get a job offer! Your activity may include a combination of informational interviews as well as job interviews.
It is easier to schedule interviews when you separate yourself from other job seekers. The best way to do that is to develop your personal brand. Answer the question: Why should someone hire you over someone else with similar experience?
You can’t expect a hiring authority to figure it out, you need to differentiate yourself with every contact.
Use your personal brand in your cover letters, phone calls and interviews. You want to be memorable and not blend in with the other individuals being interviewed.
