How making a public commitment can help deliver a project, which helped Mac with his podcast launch,
The importance of growth mindset and taking managed risks,
Interview strategies,
Insights behind the hiring process,
Building your brand and digital footprint,
How building rapport and finding commonalities can help build your network,
How can AI impact your job search,
Be specific when reaching out to someone for an informational interview,
Reframing stress in a positive way before an interview or high pressure event, and
How putting things in perspective can help manage the inevitable setbacks in your job search.
