Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• My whole job search is just refreshing job boards and firing off applications into the void, competing with hundreds of strangers for whatever happens to be posted
• I’ve got the conversation booked but I’m staring at a blank page of questions, worried I’ll waste their time asking things I could’ve Googled
• I keep hiring for the most impressive resume and then watching them work purely transactionally, and I want to start screening for whether someone actually believes in what we’re doing
• When I talk to people in the field they give me the polished official version, and I walk away no clearer on what the day-to-day actually feels like
• I want to message someone in a field I’m curious about, but I freeze on what to even say

Practices that may help

1. Build and work a target list of roles and organisations
   Replace passive job board browsing with active research into specific organisations you want to understand.

2. Prepare questions you genuinely don’t know the answer to
   Ask about the unwritten realities of the role — the things no job posting reveals.

3. Hire people who share the Why, not just the skills
   Skills can be learned; shared belief cannot — filtering for Why-alignment at hiring is the highest-leverage culture move.

4. Informational Interviews: Career Research That Builds Your Network
   An informational interview is a low-stakes conversation with someone in a role or field you’re curious about — you ask questions, they share experience, and no job is on the table. Richard Bolles’s What Color Is Your Parachute? popularised this as a career research tool; the evidence is largely observational and practitioner, but it consistently shows that direct conversation with insiders produces better career decisions and unexpected referrals.
5. Listen for what isn’t in the job description
   Focus on the texture of day-to-day work, not the official narrative.

6. Request the conversation the right way
   A short, specific, no-pressure request gets far more responses than a vague networking ask.

7. OKRs for People, Not Just Companies
   OKRs pair an Objective — a qualitative, ambitious statement of what you want — with a few measurable Key Results that prove you got there. The framework is best known from Intel and Google as an organizational tool, but its core moves (ambitious goals, hard metrics, a regular review cadence) rest on goal-setting principles that have genuine research support.
8. Use the Johari Window in team settings
   Apply the window at the team level to improve shared understanding and reduce inter-member blind spots.

9. Clarify what people can decide without asking
   Define the fence: what decisions can anyone on the team make without checking in?

10. Close every informational interview with one forward step
    End by asking: "Is there someone else you think I should talk to?"
