BreakCareerPattern.com // I help people stuck in underpaid/stagnant jobs land their Dream Job

When I began my career I faced 24 straight interview rejections, which crushed my confidence. People around me blamed my attitude, and I ended up working part-time, wondering if this was my future.

Then I got a job in Amazon's customer support but felt stuck and uninspired. That changed when I met an Oxford MBA who landed multiple interviews within minutes and revealed his secret: Networking.

Inspired, I created a group of people to crack the code on job hunting. Soon, I secured offers from Google and American Express, landing my dream role at Amex with a 230% salary increase—all without an MBA.

✅ Today, I teach people (just like you!) how to use the same process to land their dream job even without the "right" experience on paper.

✨Now, I help others achieve similar results with my proven job search process, which has led thousands to jobs at top companies like Google, Amazon, PWC, Microsoft, IBM, General Electric, Bain & Company, American Express, Samsung, JP Morgan & more. 

My clients don’t just get offers—they enjoy:

•  💰 100% Average Salary Boost
•  📞 6 Months of Career Mentoring
•  🎯 100% Career Satisfaction
•  📶 100X ROI on Investment

"Rajeev also helped me navigate the often challenging task of salary negotiation. His techniques gave me the confidence to assert my worth, resulting in a 45% increase in my compensation along with additional benefits like remote work flexibility. " - David 

"With his guidance, I not only gained confidence but also started receiving responses and interview opportunities from top companies. Thanks to the strategies and tactics I learned, I eventually landed a dream role in the banking sector—something I once thought was out of reach." - Prajuna

" Rajeev's deep understanding of career dynamics and his ability to provide tailored advice set him apart. Without the need for cohort certifications or structured programs, he helped me leverage my existing skills and experiences to successfully transition into a new field." - Hardi

Today I realised students use LinkedIn very differently from how we think

When I asked them,
“What do you think LinkedIn is for?”

One said: “Sir… LinkedIn is like Instagram but people behave”

Another said: “Sir… LinkedIn is where people pretend they have their life together 😅

And my favorite:  
“Sir, LinkedIn feels like a place where I’m supposed to be serious, but I don’t know how to be serious” 😭

I didn’t correct them

Because they were not wrong

But here’s the interesting part:
Once they started exploring it with curiosity (not pressure),their entire approach changed

They realised LinkedIn isn’t about:
 ✔️ Job hunting
 ✔️ Perfect grammar
 ✔️ Corporate-sounding bios

It’s actually about:
 🔸 Showing your learning journey
 🔸 Asking better questions
 🔸 Finding people who think like you
 🔸 Sharing one small thing you improved this week

The moment they saw LinkedIn as a playground instead of a performance stage, they opened up

Maybe that’s the advice adults need too

My old networking strategy used to be:
 • Smile politely
 • Firm handshake
 • Exchange business cards
 • Say “Let’s catch up sometime”
 • Then… never catch up 😅

I wasn’t networking..I was just collecting humans like Pokémon cards

Somewhere along the way, things shifted

My new networking strategy looks very different now:

 • Be genuinely curious
 • Ask real questions, not scripted ones
 • Share honestly — even the imperfect parts
 • Follow up like a friend, not a brochure

And surprisingly… that’s when opportunities started showing up naturally

Because at the end of the day 
People don’t connect with your pitch

They connect with you

A lot of people say they “use AI”

But when you watch them, they’re typing random prompts, believing whatever output they get, and sharing sensitive information without thinking twice

AI isn’t dangerous
Careless usage is

In the next few years, the most valuable professionals won’t be the ones who know the most AI tools

They’ll be the ones who know how to:
→ Communicate clearly with AI
→  Detect errors and misinformation
→  Combine human creativity with machine speed
→  Protect their data and privacy

These skills are basic—but they are becoming non-negotiable

Because the world is moving from

 “I use AI sometimes”
 to
 “I can’t work without it”

This carousel breaks down the 4 foundations everyone should master to stay relevant and safe in an AI-first workplace

Must Know AI skills

Economists Are Calling It The Great Freeze

And this time, the reason isn’t recession

It’s AI

Hiring hasn’t just slowed down
It has stopped

Companies aren’t panicking; they’re pausing

Not because they lack money, but because they’re rethinking roles:

Do we need 10 analysts, or will 3 + AI do the same work?
Do we hire content teams, or automate half of it?
Do we build large support teams, or deploy AI agents?

This is not downsizing

It’s restructuring

A silent recalibration of how work gets done

And while everyone is waiting for clarity…

careers are stuck on ice

The Great Freeze

In a market where AI is replacing tasks, humans need to replace value.
What to do now:

Build skills that can use AI, not compete with it

Shift from execution → strategy

Become irreplaceable through judgment, creativity, relationships

When the freeze melts, companies won’t hire the “same roles back”

They’ll hire people who work with AI, not beside it

Workplace Drama: The Untold Series

Starring:

Your career: Always on a rollercoaster
Your company: Plot twists every Monday
HR: Trying to keep peace, but sometimes…

Scenes we know too well:
“We’ll discuss this later” → 3 weeks later… nothing
“We value your input” → but nobody listens
 Surprise deadlines that make you question reality

Moral of the story

Be the main character. Don’t wait for someone else to write your scenes

Turn drama into opportunity. Every chaos has a lesson

Laugh along the way or the office drama will get the best of you

Life’s too short to be stuck in a bad script

Rewrite your plot

The Most “Life-Changing” Books...According to Readers

Came across this fascinating chart today

It maps how many people call a book “life-changing” vs. how many reviews the book has and the results are surprising

Some timeless ones show up (no surprise there):

Man’s Search for Meaning, Autobiography of a Yogi, New Earth, Rich Dad Poor Dad

But look closer and you’ll see quieter gems like:

Remembering Wholeness, The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity, Your Erroneous Zones — books many of us may have never heard of, but clearly changed thousands of lives

What this made me think:

→Sometimes the book that transforms you isn’t the bestseller… it’s the “found at the right moment” one

If you could add ONE book to this list 

One that genuinely changed how you think or live , which one would it be?

I’m building my 2026 reading list through your recommendations
