In this program we flip seven of the most commonly held job search myths on their heads. We start by smashing the misconceptions that sending out covering letters and resumes will get you an interview, all jobs are advertised, and inexperienced job seekers or frequent job changers miss out on jobs. Then we dispel the myths that the most qualified applicants always get the best jobs, you should take the first job you are offered, always stick to the job you have, and employers dismiss job seekers who market themselves. Viewers will discover practical strategies to challenge and overcome these pervasive myths.
