The 7 Things You Need to Get a Job in 2025

Let me be blunt: if you're planning to get hired in 2025, you're going to need more than just a resume and some crossed fingers. The job market is constantly changing, and if you're not up to speed, you’re going to get left behind.

The good news? Getting ahead in your job search doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. So today I’m breaking down exactly what you need into seven key pieces. If you’re missing even one of these, your search could stall. So let’s walk through the seven things you absolutely need to land a job in 2025—and how we can help you get them.

1. A Job Search Strategy That Actually Works

Throwing your resume at a hundred job boards and hoping something sticks? That’s not a strategy. That’s burnout in disguise.

You need a blueprint that’s customized to your goals, experience level, and industry. At Work It DAILY, we teach members how to identify the right companies, understand what roles they’re actually a fit for, and build a plan that increases their chances of getting interviews.

The result? Less ghosting. More control. And way better results.

2. A “Six-Second” Skimmable Resume

Here’s the cold, hard truth: recruiters spend an average of six seconds skimming your resume before deciding if you're worth more time. That means your resume must immediately scream, “I have the skills you're looking for!”

My team and I like to teach our members how to create what we call a “Six-Second Resume” that highlights their value with crystal clarity. No fluff, no generic summaries—just proof that you’re the person for the job.

3. A Keyword-Optimized LinkedIn Profile

LinkedIn isn't optional in 2025—it’s essential. But just having a profile isn’t enough. If it’s not keyword-optimized, you won’t show up in recruiter searches.

With the right strategy, you can turn your profile into a magnet for opportunities. 

4. A Regular Posting Routine on LinkedIn

You’ve probably heard me talk about this before, but not too long ago, LinkedIn changed its algorithm. And it has changed the game for job seekers. Now, if you want to appear in more recruiter searches, you need to post.

Don’t worry—you don’t have to become an influencer. Even one post a week can make a difference. Every week inside Work It DAILY, we host our Content Crafting Class, where we give our members prompts and ideas that make it simple to create posts and build visibilty.

5. Mastery of Behavioral Interview Questions

“Tell me about a time when…”
Sound familiar? Behavioral interviews are now the gold standard, and if you don’t know how to structure your answers, you’ll either say too little or way too much. 

I teach our members to use my proven method called the Experience + Learn = Grow model. It helps you answer any behavioral question with confidence and clarity, so you stand out for all the right reasons.

6. A Follow-Up Strategy That Keeps You in the Running

Getting one interview isn’t enough. These days, it’s common to go through three, five, even seven rounds. If you’re not following up the right way at each stage, you risk getting dropped—even if you nailed the interview.

You should always send a thank-you note right after every interview you attend. A strong follow-up keeps your name top of mind and can be the difference between getting an offer and getting ghosted.

7. Salary Negotiation Skills That Get You Paid What You’re Worth

You did the work. You got the offer. Now comes the part that makes most job seekers sweat: negotiation.

This is where people leave money on the table—sometimes thousands of dollars—because they don’t know how to ask for more.  One tool we use to simplify this process is the Job Matching Matrix—a framework that helps you clearly demonstrate how your skills and experience align with the company’s needs. When you can show your value in this structured way, it becomes easier to justify a higher salary and negotiate confidently.

Negotiation isn’t about being aggressive. It’s about being prepared.

Let Us Help You Get All 7—Risk-Free

If you’re missing even one of these seven things, we want to help. Work It DAILY’s courses, coaching, community, and events are your step-by-step guide to everything I just mentioned.
