DAY 5

Be reachable

Employers call once. If they cannot reach you, the job goes to the next person. We fix these in the room today.

  • A professional email address
  • A voicemail greeting that gets a callback
  • A mailbox that is not full

DAY 5

LinkedIn, if it fits your target

Not everyone needs LinkedIn. It matters most for logistics, admin, and food service management roles.

  • Headline that names your target role
  • Skills that match your postings
  • Connect with employers you apply to

DAY 5

Build a 10 to 12 second pitch

Use one real job from your board. Do not build a generic speech.

  • WHO: your name
  • PROOF: credential or experience
  • ASK: the role you want

DAY 5

Specific beats generic

TOO GENERIC: I am looking for any job. I am a hard worker. STRONGER: I'm Jordan. I have a current ServSafe Food Handler credential and hands on sanitation and customer service experience. I'm targeting Food Service Worker roles.
