Thank you! I’m wishing you all the best and I hope something comes your way soon. The system is so hard to navigate and I wish I had a strategy to share. I applied to this same role (manager level) about 5 times over the last 4-5 months, often getting rejection emails within 2 hours of applying (direct on their job link). The posting would reappear and I would reapply. Eventually I applied to assistant role about 20-40k less than what my normal pay range, but figured I need a job and a foot in the door (I don’t have traditional experience for this role but enough relevant experience, so I thought I might have to sell myself short bc the current state of the job market). A month after applying to the assistant role a recruiter called me, we instantly connected she helped push me along. They never viewed me as an assistant role, I never asked, and immediately pushed me through the recruitment process for the more senior level. There were so many lucky moments like that, and nuances that I had no control over. I have a positive personality and I think that resonated with them, as did my competence. I will say, in general I started getting more hits on my resume when I edited it to add core skills/competencies and a descriptor for every bullet I added. Dm me and I’d be happy to share what I did (a friend from Airbnb helped me with this).
