Rachel Meade Smith joins ORdio to talk about Search Work, her edited anthology about the mundane, tedious and universal process of looking for work.

In Search Work, Rachel has collected a trove of personal essays, archival job ads, and poems, sourced from more than fifty contributors. They're reflections on the mundane, turbulent, universal process of looking for work – and how and why the quest for a paycheck almost always morphs into something deeper.

This episode features book excerpts from two of Search Work's writers, Jasper Nathaniel and Jordan White.
