S2E14 Giving your job application the best chance

"My mission is to see the system change… however I believe we need to live in the now – while still taking action for a better future."

In this episode of "Her Leadership Coach," Rochelle discusses the top three mistakes women make when applying for leadership roles and provides practical tips on how to overcome them. If you've ever hesitated to apply for a higher position or felt overlooked, this episode is a must-listen. By addressing these common pitfalls, you can improve your chances of landing the leadership position you truly desire.

In this episode you will learn:

• Don't let the "confidence gap" or imposter syndrome hold you back from applying for roles you're qualified for. Recognize your transferable skills and unique value you bring to the table.
• Showcase your accomplishments without coming across as boastful by using storytelling and focusing on the impact of your work. Use the STAR method to present your experiences effectively.
• Understand the different focus required for individual, middle management, and senior leadership roles, and tailor your approach accordingly. Don't be afraid to apply before you think you're ready to gain valuable feedback.
