Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Retrenched or wrongful dismissal - are unions doing enough to help?
Q: When should I reveal my true feelings at work, and when should I suppress them?
Emotions should be managed with balance and context; show emotions to build trust, but step away or pause in tense moments, and consider consequences before reacting to maintain professionalism.
Returning to the workforce after taking time off to raise children
Q: What should someone returning after a career break do to prepare for their first day back?
Be open and flexible about expectations, request early inclusion in meetings, ask to be copied on emails before start, and go in with current affairs knowledge to enable meaningful conversations.
The mental trap of career envy
Q: How can listeners discern when envy is signaling a real career change rather than just jealousy?
Treat the feeling as data points, check in with managers or senior colleagues for balanced perspectives, and verify what your market value looks like to ensure decisions are grounded in reality, not emotion.
The mental trap of career envy
Q: What is one thought you'd want listeners to hold on to the next time they feel career envy?
Recognize that everyone showcases only highlights online and that promotions or titles don't tell the full story, so you should focus on your own path and what truly matters to you.
What to do when your degree doesn’t match the jobs in the market
Q: What should a candidate emphasize on a resume when they are overqualified?
Focus on relevant skills, de-emphasize unrelated higher qualifications, and be prepared to discuss how transferables and recent experiences align with the job during interviews.
