Decoding the Career Coach Industry

Corporate Pizza Party

Have you ever witnessed someone confidently give advice about a topic they don't know enough about? We are kicking off the new year with our favorite activity of dissecting the perils of navigating career advice. From the allure of scam artists to the often murky relationship between hiring managers and job seekers. We realize that sometimes the advice you get is worth less than the free pizza at work party.

Dan, Mike, and Farah have built reputations for calling out bad career advice -and even worse- scam artists, but when does this go too far and how do job seekers know who to trust?

So if you've ever found yourself scrolling through LinkedIn skeptically, or pondering the credentials of a viral TikTok 'career guru,' this episode is here to arm you with insights and share a laugh about the absurdity of it all.

In this episode we discuss

• Mike's run in with a scam resume writer on Linkedin (3:18)
• Farah spills some tea on Harvard's career program (8:10)
• Dan's 3 people who should talk about hiring (11:30)
• What is a scam artist (19:02)
• The balance between correcting bad info and bullying (22:28)

*Note this episode was actually the 2nd episode we ever recorded in November and was delayed for a few weeks, so you may get some of those early show vibes.*
