Season 1 Introduction

Hello and welcome, everybody.

This is the Smarter Job Hunting

podcast.

Job cast for short.

The show where job seekers and

corporate leaders find

each other and join together

as winning teams.

In the weeks to come, we'll be

exploring what kind of job

you really want and need,

how you can find it quickly,

how to prepare for your interview

and how to pitch yourself.

How to make a great impression, ways

to negotiate your salary and

benefits and how

to become a star.

Once you get the job.

Will interview guests, including

hiring experts, job

seekers and companies

looking for workers.

We'll also briefly review research

in the field and important

news articles.

Who's this for?

This is for you, if

you're someone hunting for a new

job, especially a well-paying

job in a time

of many strikes and layoffs.

If you're a job now

but are considering a career move

in a new direction.

If you're in a job but are

unhappy or stressed

or underpaid and want something

better, or

if you want to get in the business

of job placement as a career

counselor, our someone starting

a new company who might need

insights in how to hire

and keep people.

You'll gather insights into the many

myths out there

about how astonishingly

low the unemployment rate is

and how jobs are just waiting for

you to walk through the door.

Those will have you sending hundreds

of resumes to open

job postings.

On average get less

than 1% response.

We'll also cover some brain tricks

from neuroscience, both

to keep you motivated, and

to elevate your status

with your interviewer or

new boss.
