  • Helpful, but a little out of touch

    I really appreciate all the helpful insight and resources offered by your podcast, but I feel it’s often missing the mark as the current job market is so fraught with unique challenges that are not always reflected in your conversations. I’d like to see less subjective advice and more concrete tips about how to survive and navigate the current economic reality in 2026.

  • Disappointed😔

    Just disappointed by your guest Nikki Schutte!

    Quote:

    “It’s really hard to get to know somebody through a first interview or even a second or third interview. And I think that we all want to rely on things that help us make the right decision … [by] another interaction that somebody might have had with that person.”

    If that’s the case, then please tell the thousands of job seekers why post the job online and make us go through the entire process of resume submission, screening, and multiple ... more

  • Career advice from a good “friend”

    I don’t now Mac Prichard, but when I listen to the Find Your Dream Job podcast, I feel like I'm listening to a caring and insightful friend—and it calms me right down. It’s my #1 go-to podcast for up-to-date career advice, and it’s just a delightful podcast in general.

  • In my top 10 of career podcasts

    Although I still believe that the “dream job” is a myth, listening to this podcast is helping me dream of a great a job and a purposeful career. Each episode has an encouraging perspective. Mac also has a great voice for radio. His voice reminds me of Casey Kasem, which is soothing and nostalgic for me.
