Struggling to Get an interview?
Struggling To Land An Interview? Here’s What I Recommend
The graduate job market is really challenging.
Fewer entry-level roles. Fierce competition. And AI reshaping how we work.
Job hunting after uni can feel like a full-time job… with no salary. No wonder so many graduates feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start.
If that sounds like you, here’s what I recommend:
Get clear on direction
Everything becomes easier once you know what you’re aiming for. Job searching, networking, even motivation - it all clicks into place when there’s clarity. If you’re feeling lost or unfocused, career profiling (like Morrisby) can help uncover your strengths and best-fit paths.
Check your CV is ATS-ready
Most CVs are filtered by Applicant Tracking Systems before a human even sees them. If yours isn’t formatted correctly or doesn’t hit the right keywords, it may never get read.
I can help make sure it doesn’t vanish into the ATS black hole.
Tailor, tailor, tailor
Every CV, application form and cover letter should show exactly why you’re a great fit for that role. Generic = rejected. It’s that simple.
Tap into your network
Friends, colleagues, uni contacts - a quick chat, a LinkedIn intro, or a few days’ work experience can lead to surprising opportunities and insights.
Think stepping stones, not dream jobs
The perfect role may not be your first role - and that’s OK. A job that builds your confidence, communication, or teamwork skills can be a powerful launchpad.
Ditch the 'easy apply' habit
It’s tempting… but those roles will receive hundreds of rushed applications. A focused, thoughtful approach stands out.
