Travel can do amazing things: broaden horizons, build relationships, and rejuvenate the soul. But often, those experiences come at a cost. This is Peak Travel, a new podcast from WHYY about how travel shapes communities in hot-spots around the world. We’ll share the wonder that comes with exploring new places, as well as the harm that our worst travel habits can cause. And we’ll try to figure out how we can do it better. Each episode transports you to a new destination. You’ll meet the people who call that place home, hear their stories, and come to understand how tourism has changed their everyday lives. Supported by rich, on-location sound from around the world, Peak Travel unpacks the $1.9 trillion travel industry and its impact on people and the planet.

Should you push to get a job offer? How to stand out in a job application: Matthew advises personalizing your outreach by researching the company and contacting the hiring manager directly (via email or LinkedIn) with a concise message highlighting your qualifications and how you can benefit the company.Cold contacting for software engineering or machine learning positions: Sending a well-crafted email or LinkedIn message to the hiring manager is acceptable, but avoid phone calls. Focus on your skills and the value you bring.Following up on applications: If you haven't heard back after applying, a brief email reiterating your candidacy is okay. Don't call for updates.The episode also features success stories from listeners who used the podcast's advice to land jobs!

Dr. Sharon Hull: Founder of Meta Solutions and author of Professional Careers by Design , Dr. Hull brings 35 years of experience as a physician and coach to help over 450 clients pivot careers. Beating Self-Doubt: She shares her "hip pocket questions," starting with "What matters most to you?" to guide listeners through career uncertainty. Five-Step Framework: Identify what matters to you, your stakeholders, and your organization, then align and act—practical steps for any transition.

When to Shift: Use the "Stay-Go Grid" (Stay/Go vs. Survive/Thrive) and "Four Es" (Education, Experience, Exposure, Enthusiasm) to spot the right time to move. Cover Letter Tips: Keep it short, narrative-driven, and tied to the company’s needs—e.g., link a caregiving gap to relevant skills. Real Stories: A leader tweaked her life for her kids, and a retiree chased a Hollywood dream—proof her tools work. Core Message: Life is one—design it intentionally.

Handwritten Thank You Letters Move You Forward: The Secret Weapon Nobody Uses 6:02

22 gün önce6:02

6:02

Handwritten thank you letters set you apart —but only send them for roles you actually want . Don’t bother writing one if you had a weird vibe, didn’t connect, or just aren’t excited. If the company, manager, role, or pay feels right— go the extra mile . Keep it short, safe, and strategic. This isn’t a place for emotion or storytelling. The goal? To show appreciation, reinforce interest, and subtly remind them you’re the solution to their needs. Handwritten Thank You Letter Template: Dear [Interviewer's First Name], Thank you for your time and insight into the [Job Title] role. After getting to know you, the team, and the mission here at [Company Name] , I am convinced that my experience in [Your Area of Expertise] will help advance your mission. Sincerely, [Your Name] Handwrite it (not an email). Don’t go longer than the template. Use your handwriting, even if it’s not perfect—authenticity matters. Drop it in the mail within 24–48 hours after the interview.

Power of Positivity: 4 Steps to Transform Your Career 12:15

24 gün önce12:15

12:15

Introduction to Positivity: This year’s focus is on how positivity can transform your personal growth, job search, interviews, and overall career trajectory. Defining Positivity: It’s not just happiness—it’s choosing hope, proactivity, and a solution-focused mindset despite challenges. Benefits in Career Growth: Positivity boosts resilience in a fast-changing work world. It enhances networking, opportunity recognition, and professional development. Job Search Mindset: Reframe rejection as a step closer to the right fit, not a failure. Treat every interview as a chance to refine skills and build confidence. Celebrate small wins (e.g., second-round interviews, resume praise) to stay motivated. Set realistic goals: break the job search into manageable milestones (e.g., 5 applications/day, 1 meaningful conversation/week). Positivity in Interviews: Show confidence (not arrogance) with a can-do attitude and positive language (e.g., “I haven’t done that yet, but here’s how I’d approach it”). Genuine enthusiasm—let employers see your excitement for the role through tone, eye contact, and energy. On the Job: Maintain positivity by seeking solutions, encouraging colleagues, and investing in your growth (e.g., courses, reading, conferences). Small acts of support (e.g., offering help, kind words) build a collaborative environment. Tips to Foster Positivity: Gratitude Journaling: Reflect daily on professional things you’re thankful for. Mindful Habits: Prioritize sleep, exercise, and short breaks to recharge. Positive Network: Surround yourself with uplifting, like-minded professionals. Visualize Success: Picture thriving in interviews or roles to boost focus and confidence. Closing Thoughts: Positivity isn’t a guarantee, but it significantly increases resilience, interview success, and career growth—let’s embrace it together!

Career pivots are more common than ever – Nearly 49% of professionals make a major career change, and employers are becoming more open to hiring pivoters. The employer's perspective – While some still see career changers as risky, many companies now recognize the value of diverse experience and fresh thinking.

Transferable skills – Clearly explain how your past experience aligns with the new role. Passion & cultural fit – Employers want to see genuine enthusiasm for the industry and company.

Highlight how your fresh perspective brings value to the company. Show that you’re eager to learn and master their way of doing things.

Dr. Greg Chasson: Overcoming Perfectionism in Your Job Search and Career 32:34

9 weeks önce32:34

32:34

In this episode, we dive into perfectionism—how it impacts job seekers, employees, and leaders—and explore strategies to overcome its pitfalls without losing its advantages. Our guest is Dr. Gregory Chasson , a board-certified cognitive behavioral therapist, researcher, educator, and author of the new book, Flawed . Dr. Chasson breaks down why perfectionism can be both an asset and a hindrance, explaining how rigid thinking and excessive expectations can lead to anxiety, procrastination, and workplace friction. He introduces the “Emphasis Framework” (A, B, and C), a practical tool for deciding how much energy to give each task, guided by your core values—rather than an all-or-nothing approach that can derail productivity. You’ll also learn how to be genuine about imperfections in a job interview, how to avoid paralysis by analysis, and why resilience and cognitive flexibility matter more than flawless performance. Whether you’re searching for a job, leading a team, or simply aiming to strike a healthier balance between ambition and well-being, this conversation offers real-world insights you can apply today. Key Takeaways The difference between aiming high and getting stuck in rigid perfectionism Why perfectionism often creates anxiety and stalls progress—especially in job hunting How to harness the strengths of perfectionistic traits (e. g., conscientiousness) while reducing the downsides Practical steps from Flawed to cultivate cognitive flexibility, better decision-making, and more balanced expectations Resources & Links Get the book: Flawed by Dr. Gregory Chasson More about Dr. Chasson: gregchasson.com International OCD Foundation: IOCDF.org Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies: ABCT.org Reserve your seat and early bird pricing today! https://www.jobinterviewexperience.com/workshops https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-job-interview-experience/id1538223546 https://www.jobinterviewexperience.com/survey…
