Rich Owens shares his job search journey from frustration to triumph. After submitting over 1,000 applications and facing countless rejections, Rich finally landed his dream role at Salesforce!

IMPORTANT NOTE: This episode was recorded in January 2025 during the Los Angeles wildfire crisis, before Rich secured his position at Salesforce. The strategies and persistence he discusses in this conversation are exactly what led to his success shortly after our recording.

In this candid conversation, Rich opens up about:

- The emotional and physical toll of prolonged unemployment

- How AI has transformed the job application landscape

- Practical strategies that eventually led to his Salesforce offer

- Balancing job searching with pursuing his passions in music

- The "hidden job market" reality most career coaches won't tell you

For job seekers feeling stuck in their search, Rich's story provides both the hard truths and the hope needed to keep moving forward.
