🎯 The Job Hunt Trap: The #1 Mistake That’s Costing You Every Opportunity

  🎯 The Job Hunt Trap: The #1 Mistake That’s Costing You Every Opportunity


Let’s paint a familiar picture…


You’re desperate for a job, so you hop online, gather every company email you can find, attach that same dusty old CV from two years ago and boom you blast it to 500 inboxes at once.


Done, right? You sit back, wait for your phone to ring or an email from the HR... and wait... .......wait and wait...


Let’s be honest:

That’s not a STRATEGY.

That’s not even EFFORT.

That’s career SUICIDE.


And don’t get me wrong—I’m not here to shame you. But I will be real with you.


Recruiters see it coming a mile away.

A vague “Dear Sir/Madam.”

A generic CV that screams “Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.”

A mass email with 199 other companies CC’d.


You didn’t apply. You sprayed.

And now you pray.


Let me tell you what happened with one  candidate who did this. *He was called up—and guess what they asked first?


“Uh… which company is this again?”

“What position did I apply for?”


The employer didn’t even respond. He just ended the call.*

Why? Because that one moment told me everything he needed to know.


Want to Get HIRED? Act Like It.


✅ Customize your CV for each job.

✅ Research the company.

✅ Know the role—and speak directly to it.

✅ Talk to real people.

✅ Be intentional, not desperate.


This is how professionals get hired.


So here’s the hard truth:

If you're still spraying and praying, you’re setting yourself up to be ignored.


Want to stand out? Stay sharp. Stay focused. Stay relevant. Or be ready to stay behind.
