30. Standing Out When Everyone’s Applying for the Same Job with Victoria O’Tool
Friday, 30 January, 2026
Everyone tells you to “just apply online” and hope for the best. Then you apply to 100 roles, hear nothing back, and start wondering what you’re missing.In this episode, Jamie sits down with Victoria O’Tool, Executive Director of the FinServ Foundation, to talk honestly about how people actually stand out in the job search. They get into what works, what doesn’t, and why relationships, preparation, and showing up like a real human still matter more than most resumes. From internships and referrals to coffee chats and handwritten notes, this conversation feels like advice you’d get from someone who’s been there recently and learned the hard way.If you’re trying to break into financial services or level up early in your career, this one will save you time, stress, and a lot of bad applications.Connect with us below!Victoria O’Tool on LinkedInJamie Hopkins on LinkedIn FinServ Foundation If you want more information on the FinServ Foundation, be sure to check out our website by clicking on the link below.>>FinServ Foundation Website
