Tools​

How to apply​

1. Make a list of target companies​

  • Not just companies you'll submit an app to, but companies you'd be psyched to work for!
  • Aim for 15.

2. Do deep research on those companies​

  • Listen to earnings calls, read articles, find interviews and podcasts with executives.
  • What are their goals, challenges, and initiatives for the next 6-12 months?
  • How can you add relevant value?

3. Make a list of contacts at those companies​

  • Find 10-15 people at each company who could influence your ability to get hired for the role you want.
  • Find their email with Mailscoop.io and save them in a spreadsheet.
  • 10-15 at each company = ~150 total people.

4. Schedule your emails for the new year​

  • One of the biggest complaints I hear from job seekers is that they don't have enough time.
  • Both Gmail and Outlook have schedule send features.
  • Draft up notes to every person on your contact list and schedule them to send in January.
