Lander Talent

I work with CIOs and PMOs sick of staffing firms 👇

The follow-up spam. 
The templated resumes. 
The “just circling back…” 
The blur of buzzswords and bodies.

Lander’s built differently. On purpose.

For ERP and IT teams that want outcomes.
Not inbox overload.

If it’s not a hell yes, it never gets sent.
If we send them, we’d hire them ourselves.

Before I helped people get hired, I helped them get famous.

I cast 250+ episodes of reality TV for:

Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max.

Now I help overlooked tech talent get hired.
And help hiring leaders build teams they’d fight to keep.

I run a staffing firm that focuses on ERP and enterprise IT.

But my content?

It’s about giving you the playbook no one’s handed you:

✅ Job Search Strategy
↳To get hired faster, without burning out

✅ Career Frameworks
↳To find roles that fit you, not just pay you

✅ Hiring Insights
↳To build teams that scale with purpose

✅ Dad-Level Real Talk
↳ To explain ‘the cloud’ isn’t where planes live

If you’ve ever felt stuck, ghosted or burnt out,
or if you’re just ready for better…

AI changed the rules.

Most job seekers didn’t.

Half of resumes read like it's 2010:
❌ Dense walls of text
❌ Duties instead of wins
❌ Zero keywords

Those resumes don't make it past AI filters.

Modern resumes aren't about flashy design.
They're about proof you can deliver results.

Here's the difference:

1.
❌ Old: Text blocks everywhere
↳ They look impressive, but no one reads them.

✅ New: Short bullets with results
↳ Clarity beats clutter every time.

2.
❌ Old: Responsibilities listed
↳ “I was responsible for X, Y, Z…”

✅ New: Wins highlighted
↳ “Cut costs 20%” gets remembered.

3.
❌ Old: One-size-fits-all
↳ Same resume sent everywhere.

✅ New: Tailored for the role
↳ A custom resume shows you want THIS job

4.
❌ Old: Fancy formatting
↳ Pretty fonts that ATS can’t even read.

✅ New: Simple, scannable design
↳ Pass the filter, then impress the human.

5.
❌ Old: Buzzwords with no proof
↳ “Team player. Strategic thinker.” Empty words.

✅ New: Keywords with context
↳ Mirror the job post and back it with examples.

6.
❌ Old: Education front and center
↳ Degrees treated like the headline act.

✅ New: Impact leads the page
↳ Results mean more than where you studied.

Hiring managers don't need a history lesson.
They need a reason to call you back.

Your resume isn't a timeline.
It's your highlight reel of proof.

What outdated resume line do you see too often?

Old Resume vs New Resume 2025

Confidence isn’t luck.

It’s a system anyone can build.

Most people think confidence is something you’re born with or lucky to have.

But in a job search, 
confidence is a 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥.

It’s not about walking into the interview like a superhero.

It’s about knowing:

✅ What you want
✅ How to tell your story
✅ When to say no
✅ Why you’re still worthy after a rejection
✅ And trusting that's more than enough

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 8 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗜’𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴:

1. 𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Know what role fits. Stop settling for the wrong ones.

2. 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Tell your journey like it matters. Because it does.

3. 𝘈𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Detach your worth from every reply. Stay consistent.

4. 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Prep your stories. Cringe-record your answers. Walk in grounded.

5. 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Show you’re evolving. Because momentum > perfection.

6. 𝘚𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Network like a human. Not a cold-DM robot.

7. 𝘙𝘦𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Celebrate the swings. Redirection beats regret.

8. 𝘈𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦
↳ Say yes to what aligns. Not just what’s available.

Confidence isn’t a trait.
It’s a track you lay...step-by-step.

👇 Which type do you think is most important?

8 Confidence Types for Your Job Search

Hiring shouldn't feel like guessing.

These 5 questions give you receipts:

Hiring is high-stakes.

The wrong hire slows you down.
The right one builds what's next.

But most interview questions don’t go deep enough.

They test presentation, not potential.

This fixes that.

Ask these in your next interview to spot real builders fast.
