Backchanneling:

 Backchanneling:

Backchanneling involves leveraging your network to get your resume in front of hiring managers through informal channels. Instead of submitting your application into the digital abyss, you use connections to gain insider access to job opportunities. This might mean reaching out to a friend who works at the company, connecting with someone in a relevant professional group, or even engaging with the company’s content on social media to build a relationship.

By establishing these direct connections, you can present yourself as more than just another applicant. You have the opportunity to demonstrate your enthusiasm for the role and the value you can bring to the company. This personalized approach can significantly increase your chances of getting noticed and landing an interview.

In short, this is about networking!!! NETWORK! NETWORK NETWORK!
