    Grow from 0 to 5K+ LinkedIn Folllowers = Never Be Unemployed Again (Here's How)

    Whether you're a job seeker trying to get noticed by recruiters, an executive positioning for a board seat, a consultant building authority, or a business owner looking for visibility—LinkedIn is your most powerful career asset. But most people are doing it completely wrong. In this video, I'm breaking down the exact 3-phase strategy to grow from 0 to 5,000+ LinkedIn followers—and why hitting that number means you'll never have to worry about your next opportunity again. No more cold applying. No more waiting for someone to discover you. This is how you make opportunities come to YOU. This isn't generic LinkedIn advice. This is the real system I use with my clients at Resume Assassin to help professionals at every level turn LinkedIn into their personal opportunity engine. Here's what we cover: ✅ Why 5K followers is the credibility threshold that opens doors to consulting gigs, board seats, speaking opportunities, and executive roles  ✅ The 3-phase blueprint: 0-1K, 1K-5K, and scaling beyond with authority  ✅ Profile weaponization: How to position yourself as THE expert in your space  ✅ The Sales Navigator strategy for connecting with decision-makers (not just recruiters)  ✅ Why you should ENGAGE before you CREATE (this changes everything)  ✅ The 60/30/10 content framework that builds authority and trust at scale  ✅ How to stand out in a sea of AI-generated LinkedIn noise with YOUR voice and brand  ✅ Conversion mechanisms that turn followers into clients, speaking gigs, board invitations, and executive opportunities  ✅ Real client stories: From corporate exec to $150K consulting contracts, VP roles without applying, paid speaking gigs from LinkedIn reach The truth about LinkedIn in 2025: Everyone's pumping out AI-generated content that sounds exactly the same. The professionals who will dominate—whether you're climbing the corporate ladder or building your own brand—are the ones who show up authentically with their own voice, stories, and perspective. This strategy works if you want to:  🎯 Land executive roles without applying  🎯 Build a 6-7 figure consulting practice  🎯 Get invited to paid board positions  🎯 Secure paid speaking opportunities  🎯 Position yourself as a thought leader in your industry  🎯 Attract clients, partnerships, and media opportunities  🎯 Never worry about being "between opportunities" again Your LinkedIn presence isn't just a resume.

  4. Do THIS if you want recruiters to find you on LinkedIn + $133K Resume Reveal

    Do THIS if you want recruiters to find you on LinkedIn + $133K Resume Reveal

    You're not bad at job searching. You're just invisible. When you apply on LinkedIn, recruiters don't see your resume first. They see a Candidate Profile Card—and if it doesn't check the right boxes, you're filtered out before anyone reads a single word you wrote. Today I'm breaking down the exact LinkedIn strategy that's landing my clients more interviews, better response rates, and job offers they never had to apply for. This isn't generic LinkedIn advice. This is the real system I use with Resume Assassin clients to turn their profiles from invisible to irresistible. Here's what we cover: ✅ What recruiters ACTUALLY see when you hit "Apply" (spoiler: it's not your resume) ✅ The Candidate Profile Card breakdown—what's on it and why it matters ✅ How to "stack spotlights" to 5x your visibility and move from "one of many" to "priority candidate" ✅ The 3 changes that take 10 minutes but multiply your interview rate ✅ Real client transformation: From 4 responses in 87 applications to a 40% response rate ✅ Behind-the-scenes: How one LinkedIn optimization led to a $133K job offer ✅ The hidden mistakes killing your response rate (and how to fix them today) ✅ Market-aligning your job title so recruiters can actually find you ✅ The exact skills strategy that gets you past recruiter filters ✅ Why "sharing your resume with recruiters" is the setting nobody uses (but should) The truth about LinkedIn in 2025: Most job seekers are optimizing their full resume while recruiters are filtering them out based on a snapshot they never see. The professionals who get interviews fast are the ones who understand what recruiters are actually looking at—and optimize for that first. This strategy works if you want to: Stop applying to 100+ jobs with zero responses Get recruiters reaching out to YOU instead of the other way around Land interviews faster without changing your experience Stand out in a sea of qualified candidates Make your LinkedIn profile work as hard as your resume Never feel invisible in your job search again Your LinkedIn profile isn't just a digital resume. It's your first impression, your credibility signal, and your ticket to getting past recruiter filters. 📌 Grab a free ATS-friendly resume template and get exclusive weekly advice straight to your inbox—stuff you won’t hear anywhere else.

    Why Leaving $500M Behind Was the Best Decision Ever with Dominick Namis

    I’m excited to bring you a conversation that starts where a lot of careers pause: at a big decision. I talk with Dominick Namis about leaving a stable job at Meta to pursue the uncertain but rewarding path of a creator and entrepreneur. It’s not about overnight fame; it’s about steady steps, hopeful perseverance, and choosing to face the unknown to chart a personal path forward. The episode dives into the lessons I’ve learned along the way about curiosity and travel. We discuss the discipline needed to stay motivated in a world that prizes both consistency and creativity, how travel broadens your perspective, and how those experiences shaped Dominick’s voice and brand on LinkedIn. Listeners will gain practical tips for building an authentic online presence, turning daily insights into content that resonates, and using the skills from a corporate career to navigate the startup landscape. As the conversation unfolds, Dominick opens up about the creator economy, brand deals, and the realities of entrepreneurship. We don’t shy away from the hard truths—hard work, clear expectations, and the trade-offs of independence. By the end, you’ll hear a grounded blueprint for turning passion into a career, anchored by consistency, strategic storytelling, and the belief that curiosity can drive not just a brand, but a lifelong journey of growth. --------------- Update your Resume & LinkedIn Profile: Schedule a 15-minute call with Mary: https://calendly.com/resumeassassin/meet 1:1 with Mary: www.resumeassassin.com AI-Enhanced: www.resumesidekick.io --------------- Connect with Mary: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-southern/ Connect with Dominick: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dnamis/

  6. The Truth About Confidence with Linda Raynier (Hint: You’re Not Broken)

    The Truth About Confidence with Linda Raynier (Hint: You’re Not Broken)

    The thing about breakthroughs is they rarely arrive with fireworks. They sneak in between coffee refills and scrubs of morning routine, which is exactly where I find Linda Rayner—career strategist, author of The Quiet Achiever, and someone who’s learned to trade “I’m not enough” for “watch me, watch us.” In this chat, Linda takes us from the awkward, self-doubt-filled early days to a place where authentic confidence isn’t a myth but a practice you can actually use. It’s casual, it’s honest, and yes, there are enough relatable work-blunders to make you feel seen without needing a playlist of inspirational quotes. Linda opens up about the recruitment world she knows so well, the moments when imposter syndrome showed up wearing the loudest neon sign, and how she quietly rerouted her mindset until belief stopped feeling like a pep talk and started feeling like a compass. Her stories are practical, not preachy—a reminder that growth isn’t about a single, dramaticshift but a series of small, honest decisions. The conversation leans into the messy, human side of career progress: the doubts, the pivots, and the stubborn resilience that keeps showing up when you least expect it. Then the episode pivots to something deeply personal: a life-changing moment when Linda’s husband faced a cancer diagnosis. That chapter isn’t about fear-mongering; it’s about energy, healing, and the surprising ways adversity reframes what we think success even looks like. Linda shares how that era reframed her beliefs—and, frankly, her schedule—teaching listeners to visualize their ideal lives with both ambition and compassion. If you’re craving a blend of practical steps and real talk, this episode gives you a blueprint for personal growth that’s grounded in hope, humor, and hustle. --------------- Update your Resume & LinkedIn Profile: Schedule a 15-minute call with Mary: https://calendly.com/resumeassassin/meet 1:1 with Mary: www.resumeassassin.com AI-Enhanced: www.resumesidekick.io --------------- Connect with Mary: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-southern/ Connect with Linda: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindaraynier/

The conversation dives straight into what it takes to stay authentic while adapting to diverse professional landscapes, offering a fresh perspective on how personal identity can fuel cross-cultural success. Camila unpacks the practical realities of international job hunting, emphasizing the importance of understanding local job market dynamics and the subtle, often overlooked, signals that shape hiring decisions.

From networking with locals and expatriates to preparing for relocation challenges—including weather—and unlearning outdated norms, this episode offers a blueprint for turning global opportunities into sustainable careers. Camila’s story demonstrates that your unique experiences are valuable assets in a competitive market, and that engaging with local communities can enrich both professional growth and personal life.
