We've got a great opportunity for you.

No one warns you this can become frustrating. But it's the message that keeps landing in your inbox, for roles you stopped wanting three years ago.

After helping IT professionals reposition for the work they actually want, here's what I've learnt about why the wrong recruiters keep finding you:

🔍 When your LinkedIn reads like your last job spec, you'll attract more of the same. Recruiters search by keywords. If your profile is stuffed with what you've done, not what you want, you're a perfect match for yesterday's role.

📸 When your CV lists every technology you've touched, you look like a generalist. And generalists get generic calls. The specialists get the interesting ones.

📲 When you say yes to coffee chats for roles you'd never take, you're training the market to send you more of them. Recruiters remember. Your name gets filed under "open to anything," and that's exactly what you'll keep receiving.

🕐 When you describe yourself by your job title instead of the problems you solve, you're invisible to the hiring managers chasing outcomes. "Infrastructure Engineer" tells them nothing. "The person who keeps your platform up when traffic spikes" tells them everything.

💼 When your profile doesn't signal where you're heading, recruiters fill in the blanks. And they'll assume you want more of what you've already done. Why wouldn't they?

Here's what most IT professionals still miss:

Getting calls isn't the problem. Getting the wrong calls is proof your positioning is off.

💚 Your LinkedIn shouldn't be a mirror of your CV. It should be a signpost pointing toward your next move.

💚 Your headline shouldn't be your current title. It should signal the work you want to be known for.

💚 Your summary shouldn't list certifications. It should tell hiring managers why you're the solve for their specific challenge.

💚 Your experience shouldn't prove you can do anything. It should prove you're exceptional at something.

Because here's the truth about the Australian IT market right now:

There's no shortage of roles. There's a shortage of clarity.

The professionals landing senior engineering roles, architecture positions and leadership opportunities aren't necessarily more skilled than you.

They're just easier to place.

Their story makes sense in thirty seconds. Yours requires explanation.

That's not a talent problem. That's a positioning problem. And it's fixable.

If you're tired of being the right person for the wrong roles, your materials need to start doing the filtering for you.

Here's the proof:
