ADVICE

Pivot From Applications To Networking

  • Do pivot strategies instead of blindly applying to more jobs; double down on what works.
  • Jonathan emphasizes networking with hiring managers and leveraging referrals instead of mass applications — he never applied to many jobs and got roles through connections.
ANECDOTE

Donuts And A Times Square Billboard Got Interviews

  • Jonathan tested extreme outreach stunts to get interviews, including handing resumes in donuts and buying a Times Square billboard with a QR resume.
  • The billboard initially got zero interviews but after posting on LinkedIn it generated ten interviews and paid for itself.
ADVICE

Open With An Emotional Visual Hook

  • Do use emotional visual hooks in the first three seconds to stop scrolls.
  • Jonathan films raw emotional reactions (e.g., crying hires) and pairs them with controversial top-line text like a firing POV, turning confusion into engagement that leads to shares.
