The Job Hunting Podcast

Episode 287 - Hiring Makes No Sense Anymore: Why Recruitment and Hiring Feel Like a Burden and How Leaders Can Fix Them Hiring has become a dreaded task for many managers. It feels like a burden rather than an opportunity, especially when organizations are under pressure to restructure, meet operational targets, or operate with reduced budgets. In this of The Job Hunting Podcast (287), I’m sharing part one of a two-part conversation originally recorded for the Lead to Soar podcast, where I was interviewed by Michelle Redfern. Michelle and I explore the realities of hiring from the leader's perspective, especially in the current climate of economic volatility and organizational change. We discuss what makes hiring feel heavy and bureaucratic, and how we can shift the experience to make it more strategic and rewarding. Whether you’re a hiring manager or a job seeker, understanding both sides of the recruitment process is crucial.

Episode 286 - If You're Not Showing Up on LinkedIn, You’re Invisible: How Job Hunting Has Changed for Professionals Over 40 Experienced corporate professionals over 40 face a paradox: they bring extensive expertise, leadership, and resilience, yet they often confront hiring biases. If you’re over 40 and navigating a career change, know this: You don’t need to reinvent yourself. You just need to reposition. You’ve built a career. Let’s make sure it continues to serve you. Here’s what I want you to remember: This episode (286) is part 2 of my discussion on how to use age as your advantage to help mid-to-senior level professionals navigate career transitions confidently and effectively. The first part is episode 284, in which I analyze the current job market and discuss how to leverage it rather than see it as a barrier to entry.

Episode 285 - You May Not Want Another Job — You May Want Your Own Business One of the most interesting shifts post-COVID is the increase in the number of professionals choosing small businesses over large institutions. Many are seeking more autonomy, flexible work arrangements, less bureaucracy, quicker decision-making, and the satisfaction of building something tangible. TJ notes that while corporate skills like management and communication are incredibly valuable, small business operations demand flexibility, problem-solving, and comfort with ambiguity. It’s also true that more professionals today are seeking purposeful careers that allow them to apply their skills in more entrepreneurial environments. As corporate professionals rethink what success means to them, many are finding new energy in small business ventures, whether by starting something of their own or joining a growing company. In this episode of The Job Hunting Podcast, I interviewed TJ Slattery, founder of Crow's Nest Consulting. With a background that includes founding a brewery and advising small business owners across the U.S., TJ shares a wealth of insights for professionals looking to transition from corporate life to the small business world.

Episode 284 - This Ain’t Your First Recession: How to Navigate Today’s Job Market Like a Pro Inflation is slowing. Interest rates remain high. Companies are hiring, but cautiously. For experienced professionals, that mix translates into fewer job openings, more competition, and longer wait times. Meanwhile, the jobs that do exist are being filled differently. Some never even reach job boards. This blog summarizes Episode 284 of The Job Hunting Podcast, in which I discuss the biggest challenges facing mid- to senior-level professionals and offer a strategy playbook for overcoming them. If you’re applying for roles and not hearing back or wondering how to reposition yourself in a slower, more selective market, this is for you.

Episode 283 - How to Succeed Without the Perfect Boss Traditional models of leadership have focused on influence over others: inspiring teams, delegating tasks, setting strategic direction. But the definition of leadership is expanding to include how we influence and guide ourselves. Self-leadership is about setting our own direction, managing our mindset, and taking proactive ownership of our careers. We are witnessing a pivotal shift in how work is experienced and how careers are built, especially in the corporate sector. With mass layoffs making headlines and a growing number of organizations calling employees back to the office, professionals are facing unprecedented uncertainty. For many, the promise of purposeful work seems to conflict with the rigidity and pressure of corporate environments. Yet amid these complexities, there is a powerful idea gaining traction: self-leadership. In this episode of The Job Hunting Podcast (283), I spoke with Elizabeth Lotardo, a leadership consultant, author, and educator who has worked with companies like Salesforce and Hilton. Her book, Leading Yourself: Finding More Joy, Meaning and Opportunities in the Job You Already Have, and her expertise in employee engagement offer timely and practical guidance for navigating today’s volatile job market. Elizabeth traced the origins of the self-leadership concept to ancient philosophy, yet emphasized that it is now finding new relevance in the corporate world. In 2017, she pioneered the first LinkedIn Learning course on the topic, and interest surged during the pandemic as remote work made self-direction a professional necessity. Her insight is especially relevant now as many organizations reduce headcount, restructure teams, and withdraw flexibility.

Episode 282 - The New Era of Job Searching: What’s Changed and Why It Matters The job search process has undergone a radical transformation. Today, AI-driven tools, automation, and evolving hiring trends dictate how professionals land their next roles. For experienced corporate professionals and executives, this shift presents both challenges and opportunities.

Episode 281 - Pessimism is fashionable but optimism wins: Why Positivity is your career’s Greatest Asset There has never been a more crucial time for optimism in the corporate job market. As layoffs continue in various industries, economic uncertainties loom, and AI-driven changes disrupt traditional career paths, job seekers are navigating an increasingly complex landscape. In this article, I argue that a strategic, optimistic mindset is essential for professionals looking to advance their careers or land new roles. In my recent conversation with Victor Perton, Chief Optimism Officer at the Center for Optimism, we explored how optimism shapes leadership, career growth, and resilience. The discussion reinforced a fundamental truth I’ve observed as a career coach: those who cultivate a positive outlook consistently outperform their peers in job searches, interviews, and long-term career progression.

Episode 279 - What Job Seekers Can Learn from Sales Professionals The modern job market has never been more paradoxical. On one hand, technological advancements have promised greater efficiency in hiring. On the other, job seekers—particularly experienced corporate professionals—are facing unprecedented challenges in positioning themselves for their next role. Throughout my latest podcast episode with Dan Fantasia, CEO of Treeline, we explored the realities of job searching today, and it’s clear that the landscape has shifted in ways that require deeper reflection and strategic action. Treeline is considered the top sales search firm in the US, which allowed me to ask Fantasia a range of questions that have been top of mind for my clients lately.

Public speaking and self-presentation are essential skills for corporate professionals looking to advance their careers.

Episode 277 - The Job Search Illusion: Why Corporate Professionals Struggle with Unrealistic Expectations If you spend any time on LinkedIn these days, you’ll find no shortage of job search success stories. Posts from professionals who landed a new role in record time are often presented as if they hold the ultimate secret formula. The implication? If you’re still struggling to land your next opportunity, you must be doing something wrong. But the reality of job searching—especially for experienced corporate professionals—is far more complex than these polished narratives suggest. As a career strategist and coach, I work with professionals every day who are trying to navigate a labor market that has changed drastically. Their frustrations, struggles, and triumphs reveal an inconvenient truth: job search success is rarely as simple as social media makes it seem.

Episode 270 - Six Unexpected Strategies to Stand Out on Your Next Job Interview This is a rebroadcast of Episode 83. Are you ready for your next job interview? Most people would prepare for the interview by practicing answers to questions, and that's, of course, really important. However, researching the possible questions and the proper answers for those questions can be a rabbit hole and surely not the only success factor in helping you nail the interview and get the job. Many job seekers feel anxious while constantly anticipating the day of the interview. The interview comes and goes in a blur, and although you answered all the questions, you can't help but feel that things didn't go well. But then, you don't hear back for a long time, and because these days it's very hard to get feedback, you don’t know what went wrong. Could this be you? Preparing answers for questions is great, but there are other things that you can prepare for, which also affect the outcome of the interview. Unfortunately, many people overlook preparing for these other dimensions of your presentation, which the panel is also assessing. In this new episode of The Job Hunting Podcast, I share six dimensions you need to prepare to showcase executive presence during a job interview.

Episode 268 - Career Transitions: A Guide for Corporate Professionals Seeking Change The end of the year often sparks reflection. For corporate professionals, it’s a time to assess the past 12 months, consider new directions, and perhaps make big decisions about the future. This year, those reflections feel more urgent. Economic uncertainty, shifting workplace norms, and the relentless pace of technological change have left many seasoned professionals questioning their career paths. The idea of a career transition is nothing new. But what feels different in 2024 is the sheer complexity of it. For years, career advice was dominated by stories of bold leaps—dramatic pivots into entirely new industries or ventures. These tales are inspiring but rarely reflect the nuanced challenges that mid- and senior-level professionals face. Transitioning isn’t about abandoning everything you’ve built; it’s about rethinking how your experience, skills, and passions align with the opportunities of tomorrow.
