WELCOME TO JOINING THE JOB QUEUE

A podcast about finding work in the COVID recession

This series follows my journey as I join the job queue for the first time in many years. I seek out people who can help me navigate this new normal - of seeking work in a recession and during a global pandemic. I share their knowledge and ideas with others in the job hunting community.

The podcast is available on several platforms including Apple, Google, Spotify, Radio Public, Castbox, Overcast, Breaker and Pocket Casts. I've included links to Apple and Google to cover iphone and Android options.

I'd love to get your feedback and interview suggestions. Contact me at joiningthejobqueue@gmail.com.
