Job Search Trends and News Cycles

I was invited to Emily Wong's Career Cohort podcast to discuss takeaways from news cycles and what is valuable and unuseful to job seekers. We are in an age where the news creates many polarizing discussions out of aged old issues. Are issues created and make news cycles for every job seeker? Emily and I explore this topic.
