Making Sense of the Job Market: Elisa Dibble

This week, I’m joined by career coach Elisa Dibble, who brings a clear, grounded perspective to what’s actually happening in today’s job market.
We talk about layoffs, the chaos of disappearing job postings, why hiring timelines feel impossibly slow, how to position yourself clearly, and why using AI to write your résumé can quietly undermine your credibility. Elisa works with creatives, marketers, and advertising pros at every stage — people trying to level up in their current roles, people navigating layoffs, and people trying to make bold career pivots. Her experience in agency life, recruiting, and coaching gives her a rare 360-degree view of how hiring really works right now. Whether you’re job searching, thinking about making a move, or just trying to stay proactive in a weird market, this episode is packed with insight.
