The veil is thin this time of year; not just between worlds, but between you and your next great opportunity. Whether you’re a hiring manager conjuring the perfect candidate or a job seeker ready to manifest a new role, the right combination of ingredients can make all the difference!
At ebs Recruiters, we’ve opened our spellbook and laid out the tarot deck to reveal what’s brewing in the job market across the Greater St. Louis area. Ready to mix up some magic?
The Potion of Purpose (For Job Seekers)
Every powerful career journey starts with a clear intention. What do you really want to summon? A stable accounting role with growth potential? A finance position that challenges your strategic thinking? Or maybe a human resources role where you can actually make culture come alive?
Ingredients:
- 2 drops of clarity about your priorities
- 1 spoonful of confidence in your skills
- A dash of flexibility for what’s next
Spell to Recite:
“I attract roles that align with my values and challenge me to grow.”
Career Tarot Card: The Magician
You already have the tools you need! Your expertise, your network, your experience. Now’s the time to use them intentionally. Revise your résumé, update your LinkedIn, and let recruiters (like us!) help channel your energy into the right opportunity.
The Elixir of Attraction (For Hiring Managers)
Finding the right candidate shouldn’t require dark magic, just the right formula. Too often, hiring managers cast the same old spells (aka outdated job descriptions) and expect new results.
Ingredients:
- 3 scoops of clarity on what you really need (skills vs. nice-to-haves)
- 1 measure of transparent communication
- A pinch of creativity in job postings
Spell to Recite:
“The right candidate sees our value and feels drawn to our mission.”
Career Tarot Card: The High Priestess
She reminds you to trust your intuition. If a candidate has the spark, even if they don’t check every box, it’s worth exploring. Culture fit often reveals itself in unexpected ways!
The Brew of Balance (For Everyone)
The best workplaces (and careers) aren’t all fire and ambition. These places also hold space for calm, reflection, and growth.
Ingredients:
- Equal parts challenge and support
- A few drops of honest feedback
- One candle lit for work-life balance
Career Tarot Card: Temperance
The card of harmony. The universe rewards balance between effort and rest, ambition and patience. This season, focus on sustainability in your career or your team structure.
The Final Reading: Your Career Forecast
As the autumn winds shift, the Greater STL job market is alive with possibility — especially for finance, accounting, and HR professionals. Companies are seeking adaptable, forward-thinking talent who can bring more than just skill! They also want energy, empathy, and engagement.
