Life changing podcast!!
I’ve been listening to podcasts for well over fifteen years and this is the first review I’ve ever written, which speaks so highly to the incredible experience I’ve had as a listener! Although I was happy in my former role (spoiler alert), I felt I had so much more to offer an organization and that my trajectory for advancement was limited. Although I wasn’t actively looking for a new role, I came across a job posting on LinkedIn for my dream position, literally my DREAM position..it was as if the description was written specifically for me! As often happens when faced with a new opportunity/challenge, fear crept in and convinced me of all the reasons I wasn’t qualified for the role. So I didn’t apply, I dragged my feet, I listened to self-doubt, and three long weeks went by until finally, FINALLY, my spouse convinced me to throw caution to the wind and put my hat in the ring. And you’ll never guess what happened? I got a request for a first interview with their recruiter! It had been over ten years since I’d interviewed for a new role and I knew the competition would be fierce! The role I was applying to is not only very well compensated, its also an amazing opportunity for a creative innovator! To say I was nervous was an understatement but I knew what I needed to do..PREP!! I started that preparation by searching through your your extensive podcast history and finding the shows that were most applicable to my current interview needs. I listened, took notes, and tried to apply every principle you shared. Obviously, not a shocker to anyone who’s actually listened to and then applied the advice that Matt provides, I got another interview! And another..and another..and ANOTHER..! And eleven interviews later, all of which I I was fully prepared for and aced, I got the offer for my for dream job! Not only that, based on the amount of times they described me as a “unicorn”, I knew I had some bargaining leverage..so I asked for more money..and a sign on bonus..and I got BOTH!! None of this would have been possible without the advice that I got from Matt, his guests, and the entire interview experience. I’m eternally grateful for the guidance and insights and know I wouldn’t be where I’m going without it. Thank you SO MUCH, Matt!

This guy is a stud 🔥 Landed me a job with a $30000 increase in salary from my last position. No joke. I was listening to this the day of interviews and also throughout my drives. Didn’t realize how many trick questions these recruiters and interviewers ask. He helped me navigate the waters!...Read full review »
