EP 148. How to go from Contract work to a permanent role

Are you a contractor who’s been in the game for years but now wants to move into a permanent role?If you’ve been contracting for years and are ready to make the move into permanent work, you might be hitting a wall because companies often struggle to look past a string of temporary contracts. But today I'm talking about how you can absolutely turn that experience into a major advantage.

In this episode, I share:

  • How to prove you’re ready for a permanent position

  • What to say in interviews to shift the narrative in your favour

  • The key points to highlight in your CV and applications

  • How to frame your contracting experience so it connects directly to what employers are looking for

By the end, you’ll know how to package your contracting background in the most positive, powerful way—so you’re not just seen as “a contractor,” but as the ideal candidate for the permanent role you want.

EP 147. Go where they can afford you

If every company can afford you, then you're too cheap.

Not every business will be able to afford your salary ask but that doesn't mean you're too expensive it just means they're not the right fit for you.

Why do you deserve the salary you're asking for?

What do you bring to the table that will benefit a company?

Can a company still afford you in this economy?

How do you pick which companies to apply to & which can afford you?

In this episode I talk about all this and more.

Often you're not asking the wrong thing just the wrong person. We all know the analogy about the bottle of water being a different price in different locations. Maybe all you need is a different location

Plus.....................

  • Habits necessary for change

EP 145. You don't need all the answers you just need to start w/Freddie Titcombe

You don't need all the answers to be successful in your next career or business move. My Guest this week embodies that.

Freddie didn't know exactly what career he wanted but after a few different 9-5 jobs and the desire to start a business, him and his brother started journaling to help get them focused & consistent. But what they didn't know was that would become their business.

Their story is proof action is needed more than answers & how taking action now can lead you to the career, business or money you want (or all of the above) We discuss.......................

  • Why you just need to start
  • How journaling helped them achieve their personal and business goals
  • Mistakes and failures along the way
  • The positive impact your career can have on your business and vice versa
  • The 4 pillars of happiness

---------

EP 144. Renegotiating Salary & Benefits after a Job Offer

What do you do when you want the job but they offered you a salary less than you expected/wanted?

I know it can be hard to get the exact job you want without the money or benefits to match. This week I share how you can renegotiate a job offer:

  • 3 ways to renegotiate after you receive the offer
  • Why you need to stop giving a salary range less that what you really want
  • How we stop just accepting salaries to live & start expecting salaries that help us thrive
  • Renegotiating even if you had the opportunity to do it before the offer
  • Backing Yourself and leading with value when you renegotiate

EP 143. Keeping your Career Goals Top Priority while managing a busy workload

How do you advance your career goals & stay organised managing and large workload/multiple projects?

That's the question one of my listeners asked me to talk about, so this episode is the answer.

Its easy to lose sight of your career and money goals when you have a demanding job with large workloads or multiple projects.

You focus on getting things done rather than how you can leverage those things to still achieve your career goals

So in this episode I discuss......

  • How to prioritise and organise multiple projects & large workloads
  • What's most important and helps you stay visible with the right people
  • Using your work to subtly network
  • Increasing your likability
  • Utilising what you work on daily to achieve your career goals sooner

EP 142. Be the Exception not the Rule!

We get told so often when someone does something that most people haven't been able to that its because they're the exception and most of us can't achieve it.

My career and helping others achieve their gaols has shown me there are wayyyy more exceptions than we think, so this week I'm talking about

  • The mindset shift you need to make if you want to build an exceptional career
  • What it takes to land exceptional opportunities and salaries
  • If every rule has an exception why can't it be you?
  • Even if there's a 3% chance of something happening why can't you believe you'll be the 3% instead of the 97% and make it happen?

But this weeks guest said absolutely NOT!

  • Picking jobs because it’s what our parents expect
  • What do you do when your job looks good on paper & to everyone else but you’re unhappy
  • Being honest that most of us don’t have any idea what we really want to do at 16 or 18
  • It took time to build your career so it’s okay if the change takes time
  • Setting up finances before you make a career change
  • Deciding what success really means in your life
  • You don’t have to suck it up or settle in your career

EP 136. In this Job Market Screening calls are Mini Interviews in Disguise

Things have changed dramatically in this job market. There are lots of people looking and half the jobs available.

There is never a perfect time to look for a new job but during this market it is harder. So, in this episode I am breaking down the dos and don'ts of screening calls....

  • How screening calls have changed
  • What you need to make sure you speak about if you want a higher chance of it turning into an interview
  • Why you can't let your desperation lead & how to change up your energy
  • Dealing with the rejections & identifying any gaps that you can control

Screening calls have always been used to see which candidates are best to move forward but with such strong talent & experience in the mix the only way to stand out is to recognise that these calls are now interviews in disguise.

EP 133. Negotiating Remote or Hybrid work

Obviously applying to roles already advertising remote or hybrid work is what you should do if that's what you are looking for.

But those roles are steadily declining, plus what if you already love where you work just not the current working patterns?

This episode will not tell you how to negotiate remote/hybrid work on jobs advertising explicitly no remote/hybrid options BUT it will talk you through how to negotiate them just like you would salary, pension, annual leave and more.

  • How I have been negotiating remote/hybrid for more than 10 years
  • How I have helped my clients negotiate remote/hybrid using my first 90 days method
  • When you shouldn't try negotiating remote/hybrid and when you should
  • Why you can't say something doesn't work if you've never tried
  • How being an Asset is key in getting this to work at your current job
