    Playing The Game 'Ready Or Not!" with Sarah Price

    In this high-energy episode, Richard plays with Sarah Price, a life and career coach based in Waxhaw, North Carolina. Together, they play "Ready or Not," a game designed to test whether today’s young professionals are truly prepared for the modern workforce. From the impact of AI on hiring to the "COVID gap" in social development, Sarah shares expert insights on why a college degree is no longer enough and how "human skills" have become the new gold standard for employers. Key Discussion Points The Resume Revolution: Sarah explains why young adults aren't ready to write resumes—they focus on skills rather than competencies and outcomes, and often fail to optimize for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). The "COVID Gap": How the quarantine period during critical development stages created a gap in authentic communication and real-world problem-solving. Strengths-Based Success: A deep dive into the Gallup Strengths methodology. Sarah discusses why understanding your innate behaviors is more important than a linear path from high school to college. AI in the Job Search: While young adults are tech-savvy, they often don't understand how AI and algorithms affect hiring decisions or how to use LinkedIn strategically. The Soft Skill Advantage: Why companies are moving away from GPA-based hiring and toward "human" competencies like critical thinking, adaptability, and taking constructive criticism. Top Takeaways for Young Professionals Stop the One-Page Rule: ATS systems need keywords to find you; don't be afraid to provide enough detail to get through the bot. Find a Mentor: Successful people don't do it alone. A mentor can help navigate office politics and career growth. Go "Old School": If online applications aren't working, print 50 resumes and show up in person to stand out from the digital crowd. Know Your "Why": Don't just pick a major or job because it’s the "linear path." Use your strengths to find a career that actually fits.
