A recent Google search pulled up daunting statistics about job hunting, including one that states "In 2018, on average, 12% of candidates who applied for jobs were asked for an interview." What? Only a 12% chance? Do they not know how amazing I am? 

Job hunting can be as miserable or as fun as you want it to be. In today's episode we talk to two leaders in job placement, Katie Wilson and Kim Pierce. Our discussion revolves around what the current job market looks like for O&G, the best ways to use your resources, and the importance of building and using your network. And we also threw in a few comments about when and why you should look at working with a recruiter during your next search. Can you say "broader network?"
