About this listen

Trying to get hired right now is brutal. Knowing you're made for something great but feeling like no one "gets you" is a whole other level of despair. The NEXT is highlighting people who are FIGHTING to make a real difference through their life and work in a job market that seems like it’s working AGAINST them. If you’re one “Keep your chin up!” away from snapping, but the idea of launching yet ANOTHER resume into the abyss is giving you war flashbacks (to yesterday), you’re in the right place.Rob Grant Career Success Economics

    Jul 17 2025
