#183: You Don't Need More Applications: You Need More Alignment
If you’ve been told to apply to as many teaching jobs as possible…
This episode is going to challenge everything you’ve been taught.
Because the teachers getting multiple job offers?
They’re not applying more.
They’re applying differently.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
- Why “more applications” leads to more overwhelm (not more offers)
- How generic messaging is costing you interviews
- The real reason districts skip over candidates
- What alignment actually looks like in your job search
- The identity shift from chasing jobs → choosing them
This is about working smarter, not harder.
And once you understand this, your entire job search changes.
