36. What kind of job seeker are you? Insights from attachment theory

In this episode of Her Leading Story, Julie continues the discussion on job search strategies by examining how past clients have approached a career pivot in very different ways. 

Julie explores how attachment theory from the field of psychology could shed light on these different approaches. For example, some clients approach the job search from an anxious stance, which shows up as perfectionism and overwork.  Other clients tend to avoid parts of an effective job search strategy - such as networking or customizing their resume to each job posting. 

Finally, Julie provides practical advice on setting boundaries for anxious job seekers and suggests goal-setting for avoidant ones. She encourages listeners to understand their tendencies to make their job hunts more effective and less stressful.
