In this second part of her interview on the Agile Unemployment podcast, Jocelyn shares her views of leadership with host Sabina Sulat as well as the spirit and intent that is behind the upcoming Beyond Lean In book tour. On the tour Jocelyn and her fellow authors want people to rethink what it means to be a leader and how we look at our roles in the workplace. Instead of meeting the expectations of the workplace, Beyond Lean In focuses on changing the expectations of work to meet the needs of the people whom it serves. Insubordination is now advocation. Join us for a provocative conversation.

Reckoning with the Cuts: The Real-World Big and Not So Beautiful Impact of Slashing SNAP and Medicaid 39:22

۶ weeks پیش39:22

39:22

📝 Episode Summary In this 30-minute episode of Agile Unemployment , we expose the harsh reality behind the so-called “Big Beautiful Tax Bill” and its devastating impact on unemployed and job-insecure Americans. We break down $30 billion in SNAP cuts and $180 billion in Medicare reductions, unpack how these changes will affect real people and local economies—and offer actionable steps you can take right now. The bottom line? These aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. They are real consequences for people who are doing everything they can to get back on their feet. 💰 The Numbers That Matter $210 billion in cuts to programs serving the most vulnerable $400 billion in tax breaks for corporations and the wealthy Net result: A $190 billion increase in the national deficit SNAP Cuts: Starting in 2026, 8 million people will lose benefits Average reduction: $40–$60 per month, per household Medicare Cuts: Out-of-pocket costs expected to rise $150–$200/month for beneficiaries 📈 And here’s what they don’t want you to know: Every $1 spent on SNAP returns $1.50 to the economy. These cuts don’t save money—they shift costs to families least able to bear them, while handing $25 billion per year to already profitable corporations. 🗣️ Real Stories, Real Impact Sarah, an unemployed marketing professional, is barely managing to feed her two children. A $60 cut in SNAP is enough to destabilize her entire monthly budget. Mike, a gig worker caring for his elderly mother, now faces $200 more per month in Medicare costs—money he simply doesn’t have. Multiply their stories by millions, and you begin to see what happens when safety nets are shredded: whole communities become unstable. 📞 Take Action Now Political Action: 📣 Contact your elected officials: house.gov | senate.gov 📬 Tell them: “Protect SNAP and Medicare. People need help getting back to work—not punishment for being out of it.” 🗳️ Vote in every election. Share your story. Use your voice to make this visible. Personal Action: ✅ If you’re eligible for benefits, apply now—you paid into these systems. 📒 Document your job search and stay engaged in community support groups. 🎓 Take advantage of free training programs and upskilling opportunities while they’re available. 📚 Key Resources Congressional Budget Office – Nonpartisan analysis SNAP Information Medicare Resources [Find Your Representatives]( https://www.house.gov | https://www.senate.gov ) Local Food Banks [Advocacy & Policy Organizations]( https://www.cbpp.org | https://www.nelp.org | https://www.frac.org ) 🎯 Key Takeaway “These cuts don’t save money—they shift it to people who can least afford it.” No one plans to be unemployed. But when it happens, our support systems should be a runway—not a trap door. The economic evidence is clear: investing in people strengthens communities. It creates jobs. It fosters resilience. This isn’t about politics—it’s about building an economy that works for everyone. 🔥 Share This Episode Use and follow these hashtags to spread the word: #AgileUnemployment #JobSeekers #UnemploymentSupport #SNAPCuts #MedicareCuts #WorkersRights ⚠️ Disclaimer Agile Unemployment is produced independently and is not affiliated with any political party or organization.

This episode is about putting down the pressure and picking up a process that’s actually aligned with today’s job market. Because sustainable progress beats rushed panic every time. 🔗 Resources Mentioned: ✅ Realistic Job Search Timeline Calculator – A tool to help you set data-informed expectations based on your industry and level ✅ Monthly Job Market Reality Report (subscribe via newsletter) – Stay current on what’s happening in hiring, layoffs, and recruiter behavior 🎧 Tune in now and take back control of your job search timeline—with your sanity intact.

Repairing the Job Search Ecosystem: What We All Need to Know to Move Forward 33:11

۹ weeks پیش33:11

Rethinking Job Search: How Everyone Needs to Step Up Introduction Welcome to today's episode of "Rethinking Job Search." The job market is broken, and fixing it isn't just one person's responsibility. When job seekers spend 6 months searching, most online applications go nowhere, and qualified candidates abandon complicated processes, it's clear we need change. Today, we're discussing why everyone - job seekers, employers, recruiters, and hiring managers - must transform their approach. No single group can fix this alone. Only by working together can we create a job search ecosystem that actually works for everyone involved. The Hard Truth About Today's Job Market What Job Seekers Face Time Reality Check: Finding a job typically takes 5-6 months (Bureau of Labor Statistics) Online Application Blues: Only 15-20% of online applications lead to interviews (Jobscan 2023) Connection Power: 70% of people find jobs through people they know, not job boards (LinkedIn 2024) Application Burnout: 60% of qualified candidates give up on complicated applications (CareerBuilder 2023) The Disconnect Communication Gap: While 93% of employers think their hiring process is clear, only 37% of candidates agree (Lighthouse Research) Slow Motion Hiring: Companies take 36 days on average to hire someone (SHRM) Ignored Experts: Only 21% of recruiters feel their professional advice is actually used (Gartner 2023) Skills Shifting Fast: 44% of workers will need different skills within just 3 years (World Economic Forum) Better Ways to Find Work For Job Seekers Mix It Up: Don't just rely on online applications - use multiple approaches Show Results: Focus on what you've accomplished, not just job titles People First: Build genuine connections before you need them For Employers See Skills in Action: Use work samples instead of just scanning resumes Be Upfront About Pay: Tell candidates what the job actually pays Fresh Perspectives: Look for people who add new viewpoints, not just "fit in" For Recruiters Be More Than Paper-Pushers: Provide real insights, not just resumes Talk Money Early: Don't waste time with salary surprises Share Talent: Build networks where good candidates can find the right fit For Hiring Managers Define Problems, Not Perfect People: Explain what needs solving instead of listing perfect qualifications Balance Teams: Mix specialists with adaptable team players Real-World Testing: Use actual work samples instead of hypothetical interview questions Conclusion: A Call for Collective Action The job search doesn't have to be frustrating, inefficient, and soul-crushing. But meaningful change requires everyone to step up. Job seekers need to diversify their approaches and focus on connections. Employers must simplify their processes and value actual skills over perfect resumes. Recruiters should provide strategic value rather than just shuffling paperwork. And hiring managers need to focus on real problems rather than impossible wish lists. When each group makes these changes, we create a more honest, efficient, and human job market. One that matches the right talent with the right opportunities faster. One that values skills and potential over keywords. And one that recognizes finding work and finding talent are two sides of the same coin. The future of work depends on all of us changing together. What step will you take first?

Recalculating How Long You Will Be Unemployed: How Using Only One Employment Method is Costing You 42:26

42:26

Recalculating How Long You Will Be Unemployed: How Using Only One Employment Method is Costing You Today's episode tackles the critical issue of job search diversification. 📊 Our data shows that relying on just one job search method significantly extends unemployment duration. #JobSearchStrategy Key Insights: The single-method approach is silently extending unemployment periods. 😬 Job seekers using only online applications spend 40% longer in their search compared to those diversifying tactics. #HiddenCosts We broke down the "application funnel" reality: for every 100 online applications, only 2-4 typically result in interviews. This inefficiency demands a strategic shift! 📉 #RealNumbers Job seekers implementing 3+ search methods reduce their unemployment by approximately 8 weeks. ⏱️ This time savings represents both financial security and mental wellbeing. #DiversifyTactics Method Effectiveness: Direct outreach to hiring managers yields a 27% response rate vs. just 3% for online portals. 💼 The personal touch makes a measurable difference. #GoDirectly Networking continues to show the highest ROI with 63% of positions filled through connections. 👥 Your existing relationships may be your most valuable job search asset. #RelationshipsMatter Alumni networks produce results 3.5× better than cold applications. 🎓 These pre-established communities offer built-in credibility. #AlumniAdvantage Industry-Specific Findings: Our research shows tech requiring 4.2 different approaches vs. 2.8 for service industries. 🔍 Different sectors demand different levels of tactical diversity. #KnowYourSector Career pivots require 2× more diverse application strategies than staying within your field. 🔄 Changing industries demands extra creativity and persistence. #CareerChange Practical Action Steps: Implement the "3×3 Strategy": apply 3 different approaches for 3 different types of positions. 🌟 This structured diversification optimizes your chances. #StrategyDiversity Track metrics beyond just "applications submitted" - focus on responses, conversations, and referrals. 📋 Quality engagement matters more than quantity. #MeaningfulMetrics Final Thought: Remember that recalculating your approach isn't admitting defeat—it's embracing agility. 🚀 By diversifying your job search methods today, you're not just shortening your unemployment timeline, you're taking control of your professional future. Your career journey deserves more than a one-dimensional strategy. #AgileJobSearch #EmploymentEmpowerment #StrategicPersistence…

Revamp Your Job Search Strategy: The Problem Isn't the Market, It Isn't You, It's What You Are Doing 39:33

🎧 AGILE UNEMPLOYMENT PODCAST Episode Notes: "Revamp Your Job Search Strategy: The Problem Isn't the Market, It Isn't You, It's What You Are Doing" 📊 EPISODE OVERVIEW In this episode, Sabina Sulat addresses the pressing question that emerges in almost every coaching call: "Is it just a bad market, or is my approach the problem?" With fresh employment data and practical strategies, Sabina provides a roadmap for navigating today's challenging job landscape, balancing empathy with accountability. ⏱️ EPISODE BREAKDOWN The current employment landscape shows unemployment at 4.2%, but that doesn't tell the whole story. Job creation has slowed significantly to about 110,000 jobs monthly compared to over 200,000 in early 2024. Tech companies have laid off 75,000 workers in Q1 alone, while the average time-to-hire has stretched to 44 days across industries. Despite these challenges, certain sectors like healthcare, clean energy, and specialized AI roles are experiencing talent shortages. Sabina shares stories of clients who successfully landed roles despite the competitive market. Their common denominator wasn't superior qualifications or connections, but rather strategic approaches. The data supports this: referred candidates are 4× more likely to land jobs than cold applicants, yet most job seekers spend less than 20% of their time on networking activities. 💡 COMMON MISTAKES IN TODAY'S JOB MARKET The numbers game approach rarely works when 75% of resumes never make it past ATS screening systems. Job seekers with unclear professional narratives blend into the crowd instead of standing out. Many either neglect their networks entirely or use them ineffectively with generic outreach messages. Letting rejection affect self-worth creates a negative spiral that impacts future applications. Too many candidates focus on application volume rather than application quality, and many fail to adapt to emerging trends like skills-based hiring. 🔍 EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES FOR 2025 Successful job seekers get crystal clear on their positioning by articulating specific problems they've solved and the measurable impact they've created. They research with purpose, understanding that 47% of candidates get rejected for insufficient company knowledge. Strategic applicants customize everything from resumes to interview preparation, mirroring the language of job descriptions while highlighting relevant accomplishments. Networking becomes more effective when focused on seeking insights rather than directly asking for jobs. People are 85% more likely to respond to specific requests for information than general requests for help. Thoughtful follow-up increases offer chances by up to 30%. Developing competitive skills like data analysis, digital collaboration, and AI tool utilization helps candidates stand out in a market where 76% of employers value demonstrated abilities over traditional credentials. 📱 CONNECT WITH SABINA LinkedIn: Sabina Sulat Website: agileunemployment.com 📚 RESOURCES Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Report (April 2025) LinkedIn Global Talent Trends Report 2025 Society for Human Resource Management Hiring Survey IBM Skills-Based Hiring Study Federal Reserve Bank of New York Networking Impact Analysis Jobscan ATS Research (2025) #️⃣ SHARE THIS EPISODE #AgileUnemployment #JobMarket2025 #CareerStrategy #JobSearchTips #EmploymentTrends #TechLayoffs #NetworkingAdvice #ATSOptimization…

Refuting the Myth of the Perfect Job Candidate 33:24

📝 Agile Unemployment Podcast Refuting the Myth of the Perfect Job Candidate 🎯 🔑 Key Takeaways The "perfect candidate" is largely a fiction created by unrealistic job descriptions and hiring expectations Most successful hires have 60-70% of the required qualifications but bring adaptability and growth mindset Both employers and job seekers benefit from focusing on potential rather than perfection Agile methodologies in hiring prioritize learning ability over complete skill mastery 💼 For Employers Rethink Your Job Requirements - Are you listing "must-haves" that are actually "nice-to-haves"? Value Transferable Skills - Technical skills can be learned, but problem-solving and collaboration are harder to teach Consider Culture Add vs. Culture Fit - Diverse perspectives strengthen teams more than perfect matching of existing team profiles Implement Skills-Based Assessments - Practical demonstrations reveal capabilities better than resume keyword matching 👤 For Job Seekers Apply Anyway! - Studies show men apply when meeting ~60% of requirements while women often wait until 100% Highlight Adaptability - Showcase examples of quick learning and successful transitions Focus on Results - Quantify achievements rather than just listing responsibilities Prepare "Growth Stories" - Be ready to discuss how you've overcome skill gaps in previous roles 🗣️ Listener Question Spotlight "How do I compete when job postings ask for years of experience with brand new technologies?" Our answer: This paradox exposes the myth! Emphasize your experience with similar technologies and demonstrate your learning velocity. Most hiring managers understand the impossibility of their requirements and are really looking for adaptable problem-solvers. 📊 Interesting Stats 42% of hiring managers admit they've hired candidates who didn't meet all listed requirements Companies with more flexible hiring criteria report 35% higher retention rates 89% of failed hires are attributed to attitude issues, not skill deficiencies #AgileEmployment #JobSearch #HiringMyths #CareerDevelopment #RecruitingTips #JobMarket2025 #PerfectCandidate #CareerAdvice #TalentAcquisition…

Welcome back to Agile Unemployment , where we break down the modern job search in a way that keeps you agile, informed, and empowered. Today, we’re exploring some dramatic changes in how we look for work, the tools we use, and how job seekers and organizations have had to rethink their strategies. This isn’t the job market of even a year ago—it's evolving fast, and so are we. Episode Highlights: A New Approach to the Job Search Mindset 💭 Then vs. Now: The old mindset was all about selling yourself to a company. Now, it’s about showing up as a whole person with purpose, values, and vision. Shift in Self-Perception: Job seekers today are crafting personal brands, positioning themselves authentically, and moving beyond just “checking the boxes.” How Recruiters and Hiring Managers Have Shifted 🎯 More than Just Skills: Employers are now looking beyond the resume, focusing on cultural fit, adaptability, and overall potential. The focus is on finding people who grow with the company. Human-First Approach: Hiring managers are asking deeper questions to understand who candidates are, not just what they do. It’s a more holistic approach. The Evolution of Job Search Tools and Tactics 🔧 AI and the Tech Revolution in Hiring: Tools have become sophisticated, from AI-driven resume scanners to virtual interview prep tools, making it essential for job seekers to stay on top of tech. Social Media as Your Brand Hub: Platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and even TikTok are spaces where candidates can share insights, demonstrate skills, and make a memorable impression on potential employers. Why Re Working Exists 🏢 A Response to Today’s Job Market Needs: At Re Working, we’re here because today’s job search requires an agile approach. We’ve built our business around helping job seekers and career changers navigate this new reality with the tools, strategies, and support they need.

We explore how leaders can thrive by shifting from harsh self-judgment to compassionate accountability. Massimo’s perspective is crucial for those navigating not just leadership but also the challenges of unemployment, where the pressure to succeed often leads to self-blame. 🌱 💡 Key Takeaways: The Importance of Self-Compassion During Unemployment: Being unemployed can easily trigger a cycle of self-doubt and criticism. Massimo explains that, while accountability is important, self-compassion allows us to face challenges without falling into the trap of self-blame. 🧠 Accountability Without Blame: Self-compassion isn’t about avoiding responsibility. Massimo shares how we can hold ourselves accountable for growth and learning during job transitions, without carrying the emotional burden of blame. 🔄 Self-Criticism and its Consequences: Self-criticism might feel productive, but it often leads to burnout and decreased confidence. Massimo offers insights on how to break that cycle and foster a mindset of resilience and self-kindness. 💥 Building Leadership from the Inside Out: Massimo dives into the leadership strategies in his book, emphasizing the need to start by leading ourselves with care before we can effectively lead others. 🚀 📚 Navigating unemployment is tough, but beating ourselves up for every setback is counterproductive. Massimo’s book highlights that when we give ourselves grace during difficult times, we’re better equipped to tackle the job search process with clarity and renewed confidence. By practicing self-compassion, we can take ownership of our journey without being weighed down by unnecessary guilt or negativity. 💪 🔥 Episode Quotes: “Accountability without blame gives us the power to learn and grow without diminishing our self-worth.” “Self-compassion is the key to unlocking potential in the hardest moments.” 📚 Human First, Leader Second is now available on Amazon!
