Is It a Job Problem or a You Problem?

About this episode

This episode discusses how new grad physios can stand out in a competitive job market.

Graduation season is here, and thousands of new grad physio's are entering one of the most competitive job markets in years. Yes, jobs are limited. But new roles are still being advertised. Sports like football and rugby are coming to the end of their seasons and looking to recruit and private clinics gear up for a busy summer ahead. The real challenge? Standing out from the crowd. Don't make mistake everyone else does by saying things like I'm... “A great team player” and a “strong communicator.” Everyone says this. And if everyone is saying this, how will this help you stand out? It won't, in fact... It does the opposite. It helps you blend in... Exactly the last thing you want to do! Listen to this week's podcast episode to learn what you can do differently to secure your first physio role. Because there are jobs out there. The question is... Why are other people getting hired and not you? Enjoy the show! Andy Barker The New Grad Physio Podcast PS. So is it a job problem or a you problem?
