There is no doubt that searching for a job is a full time job on its own. The resume writing, the portfolio design, the case studies, the submissions, the interviews. But before all of that, how does one even find the right job to apply to?
This week, Derek and Jeremy play a fun game called “Guess the Job Title.” Unfortunately for those on the hunt for a new job, most job titles out there can be pretty useless in helping narrow down the search.
But never fear! Derek has some words of wisdom to help you keep your chin up.
We’ve got some special news for our Retro Time fans: Leave a comment on Facebook, twitter, Apple Podcasts, or Stitcher, and Derek will write a song about you. We might also send you a sticker.
