Have you ever felt crushed by job rejections - like all your experience and hard work suddenly didn’t matter?
You’re not alone. And you don’t have to stay stuck in that spiral.
When I moved to the U.S., I believed my engineering leadership experience would open doors. Instead, I faced rejection after rejection, and my confidence suffered. That’s why I’m so eager to share this episode of From a Woman to a Leader with Carol Hauser, a high-tech recruiter and career consultant who’s been through it too—and now helps women bounce back stronger and smarter.
🎧 In this episode, we dive into the emotional side of the job search—the fear, the silence, the self-doubt - and how to take your power back.
✅ Why rejection hurts so deeply - and how to stop letting it define you
✅ How to tell your story on your resume in a way that actually lands interviews
✅ What most women get wrong about job searching (and how to fix it fast)
✅ The mindset shift that helped Carol and me go from rejected to re-hired
✅ Real-world advice for rebuilding confidence, reframing rejection, and showing up like the leader you are
Whether you’re job searching now or thinking about your next move, this episode is for you. Carol brings compassion, strategy, and the tough-love clarity that every ambitious woman needs to hear.
🎧 Hit play if you’re tired of shrinking after rejection, and ready to own your brilliance.
