In this episode of Unemployable, Alfie Martin and I spiral (productively) through the wildest parts of the design world and the even wilder parts of the job market.

Alfie talks about her extremely non-linear journey from front-end development to art, design, and generally being cooler than most of us. We get into how social media accidentally became a career engine, why startup culture is basically controlled chaos, and why creativity still matters in a world that keeps trying to automate everything.

Naturally, we also rant about the modern job market, the absolute circus that interviews have become, and the strange new world where LinkedIn is somehow both networking platform and emotional support group.

We also touch on art, politics, AI, hiring nonsense, and the systemic weirdness of how companies try to evaluate humans.

Basically: design, jobs, chaos, community, and why being creative and slightly unhinged might actually be the only way forward.
