Navigating a job search can be a lonely, isolated, and demoralizing experience. The key is not to do it alone. One of the most successful, volunteer-supported and peer-led programs out there today is a program called Never Search Alone (NSA), which is the brainchild of Phyl Terry. On this episode Tamara Adlin talks all about what NSA is, how to get involved, and the power of searching for a job surrounded by a supportive community.

Tamara also talks about the important concept of Candidate Market Fit and how understanding one's identity aids in better marketability, why it's important to avoid overly complex descriptions of ourselves, and how we need to communicate in a way that makes sense to others to find a new position faster.
