As a recent grad I feel I have to take any job to get started. Is that right? What if I hate it? (TPO034)

Being new to the workforce, we may feel powerless and at the mercy of the job market.  Some would say ‘Beggars can’t be choosers.’  It turns out, though, that the most important quality in a candidate, as the head recruiter for Goldman Sachs said, is “Enthusiasm.”

 

What this means, is that if we can show the interest or excitement we bring to a job, we can be selected over the apparently more qualified candidate.  This microcast explores how our desire to do the job matters.
