In this episode, Cem and Wayne expose some of the real reasons why you’re still unemployed. We discuss issues such as cognitive biases caused from hearing/reading about the difficulties of finding work, wanting a job for jobs sake not out of passion and finally relying too heavily on your credentials on paper rather than your personality and experiences.
