In this episode, we talk about the bias that unemployed folks face in the job search. We dip into how we’ve faced this bias head-on with hiring managers as recruiters, and in our own job searches. We also share some advice on taking back your narrative as an unemployed candidate. 

This episode was recorded on November 7th, 2024, a couple days after election day, and we do have a bit of a chat about our post election feelings. If you’d like to skip that part, we begin to chat about unemployment bias around the 4:30 mark.
