I first came across my guest on today's episode of The Science of Successful Job Hunting after reading a viral online article titled, “How to Get Any Job You Want (even if you're unqualified)”.

This article was written by Raghav Haran, whose blog on LandAnyJobYouWant.com features various unconventional strategies for job hunting.

As well as being a regular careers blogger, Raghav is also an entrepreneur, designer and a marketer who has worked with some of the biggest venture capital firms in Silicon Valley, alongside working with the New York Times Bestselling author, Ramit Sethi, where he is currently specialising in product development.

In today’s episode Raghav and I discuss some of his unconventional job hunting strategies – including his technique for getting any job you want, even if you’re unqualified!

In this episode we discuss...

*How to increase your positive response rate when applying for jobs;
*How to 'decommoditise' yourself and stand out in the job application process;
*What employers are really looking for versus what they say in job adverts;
*How to find and approach the right hiring managers for the role you want;
*How to prove you can do the job before you even get shortlisted;

...and much more!
