Let's Get A Job
Getting that first job is difficulty; let's do it together. Jason, a seasoned creative turned educator, talks with creative professionals about how they got their first job and the things they wish they knew when they did. This podcast is a deep dive into the "how and why" of creative industries as told by the folks in them. More than practical career advice, it’s a look behind the curtain revealing a story of shared journeys, spectacular failures, horrible clients, and fulfilled dreams.
