You’re at your first job. But it…sucks. Quitting isn’t quite frankly feasible at the moment given the current job market.
So, what do you do?
In the pilot episode of The First Two Years, we learn how to turn a job that you have into a job that you want. How do you inch your responsibilities toward things you enjoy and change how you think about your work?
Host Akshaya Chandrasekaran talks with people on both sides of the table, a fresh graduate about to start his new job and someone who’s actually been on this journey before and managed to turn it around for themselves. On this episode you’ll hear about what kind of gigs can be salvaged, the obstacles you might face in trying to do so, and how to get a stubborn boss to let you mould your role in a meaningful way.
This is our show launch, let us know what you think? You can write to Akshaya, the host, at
