About this listen
The job market’s broken, and it starts with volume. In this episode, we look at how applying for jobs turned into a numbers game—fueled by one-click applications, AI bots, and overwhelmed recruiters. Featuring the story of Nathan S., an AI researcher rethinking what “fit” even means, we dig into the applicant tsunami and ask: how do you stand out in a system built to ignore you?
About The Job Market Sh*t Show:
The Job Market Sh*t Show is an investigation into how hiring actually works now, why the old rules no longer apply, and what’s quietly taking their place. It blends reporting, analysis, and firsthand stories from inside a labor market that feels increasingly automated, opaque, and indifferent to the people moving through it.
