  • Why Contracting Beats the Job-Hunting Bias

    After 15 years as a career coach, Uli Schild, aka Mr Career Tick, is pulling back the curtain on the one career move that’s helped hundreds of clients (and himself) stay sane, solvent, and strategic: contracting.


    In this episode, Uli shares 10 smart, experience-backed reasons why contracting isn’t just a fallback—it’s a future-proof strategy for professionals who are tired of the corporate circus, stuck in the job hunt, or craving more freedom and impact.


    Learn how contractors skip bias filters and land roles faster, why cash flow, negotiation power, and personal branding all thrive in contract roles, and finally, discover what freedom really looks like—and how to design a career that supports your life, not the other way around.

    Whether you’re burned out, overqualified, or just ready to move differently, this episode is your permission slip to rethink what stability really means.

  • The Career Detox: Ditch the Dreams That Hold You Back

    We all have pipe dreams—heartfelt and sometimes wildly unrealistic ideas we tuck away for “someday.” But what about the career goals we chase without clarity, the ones that quietly drain our energy and leave us stuck?

    In this episode, career coach Uli Schild, aka Mr. Career Tick, invites you to rethink your relationship with ambition. Uli shares three powerful mindset shifts that help unclog your career pipe dreams and make space for real progress:

    • Let go of your goals (yes, all of them—at first)
    • Let go of your impatience (slow is still forward)
    • Let go during your morning routine (and redefine success)
    • Whether you’re job hunting, pivoting careers, or just feeling overwhelmed by your own expectations, this episode offers a gentle but strategic reset. Plus, Uli shares personal reflections—from trombone dreams to coaching breakthroughs—and how small, consistent steps can lead to big, meaningful change.

      Tune in, take a breath, and start moving forward—with clarity, confidence, and a little less pressure.

            • The MrCareerTick Way To Find Joy In Your Work

              People reach out to me in many ways.

              I receive emails, Insta messages, LinkedIn messages and lots of calls from individuals who are trying to work out why they have lost their mojo at work and what they can do to reconnect with the work they once loved.

              That’s not necessary job search coaching or career coaching and so I often feel challenged to sell my services.

              There are many issues these individuals describe, but it most often boils down to one “real issue “ They contact me because they want to find joy in work again.

              Join me and listen to the MrCareerTick Way to find Joy in your Work.
