NEW COURSE: How to Make Adulting Suck Less: https://jessdiamondcoaching.com/suck-less/

The job market is tough right now and I'm not going to sugarcoat it. In this episode I'm breaking down the real statistics behind what's happening with entry level jobs, why AI is a massive driver behind it, and whether Gen Z is actually screwed or just searching the wrong way.

Spoiler: it's a little bit of both.

I'm sharing what I'm seeing with my own clients, the mindset shifts that separate the people landing jobs from the ones still waiting for an email back, and why the way your parents found their jobs has absolutely nothing to do with what works today. If you're currently in the thick of a job search that feels like it's going nowhere, this episode will give you some honest perspective and a better direction to move in. Because the people landing jobs right now aren't doing anything magical, they're just doing things differently.

Key Takeaways:

Why entry level jobs are harder to land than ever beforeHow AI is changing the hiring process and what that means for youWhy mass applying online is not an effective job search strategyHow your mindset directly impacts your ability to land a jobThe truth behind job postingsYour first job out of school is not going to be what you think it is
