Episode notes

Getting the dream job (or indeed any job) can be a daunting experience.

In this episode of What The Denmark we dive into the practical advice on how to get a job.

Whilst this is through the lens of getting a job in Denmark, as you'll hear the tips and advice that Sam and Josefine discuss (a lot coming from Karey-Anne from The Welcome Group in Copenhagen) are applicable to anyone seeking employment.

We get tactical, including:

  • Planning which applications to make
  • When to call the hiring manager and what to say
  • How to follow up after an interview

We also talk about alternative forms of employment and how, for example, freelancing first becomes a much easier way to get a foot in the door before landing a dream job.

If you haven't already, you may enjoy listening to Getting a job (Part 1) for some of theory, and additional ideas around finding employment.
