When Marjorie moved from the Philippines to the UK, the pressure to find work quickly was intense. Like many newcomers, her first instinct was to apply to as many jobs as possible – hoping something would stick.
“I was anxious. I needed to help with expenses, so I was applying constantly – whenever I had free time. But I wasn’t getting results.”
After seven months of non-stop applications and no success, she knew something had to change. That’s when she discovered TechTalk – and everything shifted.
Shifting Strategy: From Quantity to Intentionality
With support and advice from the TechTalk team, Marjorie stopped applying to every job she saw and started focusing on being intentional – tailoring her applications and truly researching each company.
“You said you have to really show the company that you're interested in working for them. So I did – I read everything about them, listened to their podcast, and even brought it up in the interview.”
She also took the time to revamp her CV and LinkedIn, ensuring her profile made a strong first impression. It worked – recruiters began reaching out, and her application finally started standing out.
“I asked my boss what made them decide to interview me, and they said it was my CV and LinkedIn. That was such a big moment.”
One Interview. One Offer. The Right Fit.
After seven months with no progress, Marjorie’s very first interview – after implementing the new strategy – led to a job offer.
“It’s funny because this was my first interview after seven months – and I got the job. It really was the best decision to follow your advice.”
Now, she’s not only working in a role she loves, but she also feels proud of how she got there – through strategy, preparation, and believing in the process.
“What you’re doing is amazing. The advice you give really works – people just need to apply it at the right time.”
