  • The Narrative Intelligence Method for Landing a Job | Joshua Green
    2026/08/12
    What if the biggest obstacle in your job search isn't the market, it's the story you're telling yourself about it? In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Joshua Green, entrepreneur and narrative intelligence coach, to talk about the mindset shift that separates candidates who land roles from those who keep spinning their wheels. From narrative intelligence to the decision matrix from cognitive behavioural therapy, Josh brings a practical framework for breaking the mental loop that keeps job seekers stuck and replacing it with a strategy that actually works. Key Takeaways Your brain is a story machine, not a truth machine — and the story you're running is shaping your results. Identify your limiting belief, choose a more empowering one, and find 63 days of evidence to support it. Stop mass applying and go deep on one company a day - find the decision-maker and start a real conversation. Target companies that aren't currently hiring — no hiring fatigue, and they'll remember you. Treat your job search like a sales job with structure and breaks. Purpose and mission matter more than another application click. Episode Highlights The newspaper experiment that explains why "unlucky" people miss opportunities in plain sight. How Josh landed a management role at a company that wasn't even hiring by showing up with curiosity. Why easy apply is the job search equivalent of shouting into a void. The "crayon map" analogy: how childhood stories become adult blockers. Why the last two hours of applying are always the worst — and what to do instead.

  • When Traditional Employment Stops Working | Start This Instead | with Haley Moss
    2026/08/05
    What does entrepreneurship actually look like when the traditional employment system has never really worked for you? In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Haley Moss, autistic attorney, author of five books, and neurodiversity advocate, to talk about how neurodivergent people are finding their own path, and what the rest of us can learn from it. From knowing when a passion should stay a hobby versus become a business, to building structure when no one gives you a rulebook, Haley shares the honest, practical side of starting something from scratch. Key Takeaways Many neurodivergent entrepreneurs start a business without realising they already have one. Not every hobby should be monetised — protecting the joy in something is a legitimate business decision. Sort your activities into three buckets: hobby, side hustle, or business. Every entrepreneur needs three things early: legal structure, a good CPA, and written goals. Have a risk fund and know your number before you take the leap. Build in at least one meeting-free day per week to protect your energy and output. Episode Highlights Why Haley left law at 25 to pursue speaking and why she thought it would last two years. The Picasso napkin story: why people pay for years of expertise, not 30 seconds of effort. How selling concert tickets in college taught Haley more than any class. Why neurodivergent people are often pushed toward entrepreneurship when traditional employment burns them out. The Vanderbilt NeuroCorps fellowship making entrepreneurship more accessible for neurodivergent people.

  • How to Spot a Job Scam Before It's Too Late | with Mark Anthony Dyson
    2026/07/29
    Job scams have existed for years but they've never been this sophisticated, this targeted, or this hard to spot. In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Mark Anthony Dyson of The Voice of Job Seekers and The Job Scam Report, one of the few voices in the career space going deep on how scammers are infiltrating the job search and exactly what to do about it. From fake LinkedIn profiles to cloned company websites, Mark breaks down how to clarify, verify, and not just apply and what to do immediately if you've already been caught out. Key Takeaways Scammers rely on urgency, desperation, and excitement — all emotions common in a job search. Use whois.com to verify whether a company URL is legitimate and who owns it. Send a LinkedIn connection request to any recruiter who contacts you — a scammer won't accept. No legitimate recruiter will ask for your Social Security number or banking details on an initial call. If you receive a suspicious call, ask them to put their request in writing — it corners a scammer immediately. If you've been scammed: contact your bank, freeze your credit, file a police report, and call the Social Security office if personal details were shared. Episode Highlights Why job scams surged 1,000% between May and July — exactly when students graduate. How scammers clone entire company websites by changing one letter in the URL. Why college students are being used as money mules without realising it's a crime. The "clarify, verify, don't just apply" framework. Why one red flag is enough — disengage and don't look back. Timestamps 00:31 — Introduction: Mark Anthony Dyson and The Voice of Job Seekers 02:15 — How job scams have evolved over the last 12 years 05:00 — How scammers clone companies and fake recruiters 08:47 — Why graduates are prime targets 09:19 — The 1,000% surge in scams during graduation season 13:52 — The "clarify, verify, don't just apply" framework 16:20 — How to vet a recruiter on LinkedIn 19:17 — Checking the domain: whois.com explained 21:25 — What a real recruiter will never ask you 25:13 — What to do if you've already been scammed 26:07 — Steps for students: bank, police, credit freeze 28:18 — Steps for older job seekers: accounts, credit cards, police report 33:24 — Where to find Mark and The Job Scam Report Connect With Mark Website:https://thevoiceofjobseekers.com/ Linkedin:https://www.linkedin.com/in/markanthonydyson/ If you found this advice valuable, please hit subscribe, leave us a review.

  • The Career Translation Guide Every Veteran Needs | with Wendi Wray
    2026/07/22
    What does it take for a military veteran to translate years of service into a civilian career and what are employers getting wrong? In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Wendi Wray of Beyond the Military, a veteran and career coach bridging the gap between military experience and the civilian workforce. Wendi breaks down the language barrier veterans face, how to reframe military skills into corporate terminology, and why the "we" to "I" shift is one of the most important changes a veteran can make on their resume and in interviews. Key Takeaways Transitioning from military to civilian work is a full life transition, not just a career change. Swap military jargon for civilian language — "compliance" and "risk management" over "maintaining readiness." Shift from "we" to "I" to take clear ownership of your results. Start your LinkedIn presence at least six months before leaving service. The Hiring Our Heroes fellowship gives veterans a six-month placement with civilian companies before they leave service. Start with what drives you, not just what your experience matches. Episode Highlights Why hiring managers struggle to evaluate veterans who haven't translated their experience. How a commander title signals four-plus years of leadership to a civilian recruiter. The difference between enlisted and officer career paths and why it matters for your job search. Why on-site or hybrid work supports a smoother transition. Wendi's intake framework: passion first, then skills, then role match. Timestamps 00:01 — Introduction: Wendi Wray and Beyond the Military 00:58 — Is the job market just as tough for veterans? 01:08 — The civilian adjustment and the language barrier 03:58 — How Wendi helps veterans translate their experience 09:31 — Military terms and their civilian equivalents 11:00 — Removing jargon and adding measurable results 13:07 — The "we" vs "I" problem in resumes and interviews 13:51 — How employers can read an untranslated veteran resume 19:41 — The six-month transition window and talent pipelining 20:40 — Hiring Our Heroes: the fellowship programme 25:25 — Wendi's intake process and first 30-minute call 30:11 — Interview prep: building a story toolkit 34:43 — Wendi's why Connect With Wendi Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendiwray/ 1-1 Clarity Call: https://womenveteranscareercoach.com/claritycall If you found this advice valuable, please hit subscribe, leave us a review.

  • How Improv Will Make You Unstoppable In Interviews | with Jess Rogers
    2026/07/15
    What if the secret to a better interview wasn't knowing all the right answers — but knowing how to handle any answer? In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Jess Rogers of Tama Learning, a professional improviser and communication coach whose approach to interview prep will completely change how you think about conversation. Jess introduces the "yes and" mindset from the world of improv and shows how accepting and engaging — rather than blocking or deflecting — can transform your presence in any high-stakes conversation. Whether you're dreading the curveball question or just freezing under pressure, this episode gives you a practical, repeatable framework to walk into any interview feeling ready for whatever gets thrown at you. Key Takeaways The "yes and" mindset means accepting someone's reality and engaging with it — even if you disagree. You don't need the perfect answer, just an answer that moves the conversation forward. Trust your brain to make connections — word association exercises are a powerful way to stay sharp. Practice out loud, with a friend, with AI, or even walking the dog with headphones in. Affirmations can help you stay calm when an unexpected question lands. An interview is a two-way street — you are assessing them as much as they are assessing you. Role play is not about getting it right — it's about getting comfortable with the unexpected. Episode Highlights Why improv isn't winging it — and why that matters for interview prep. The "yes and" principle explained in plain terms with real examples. How to buy yourself time when a curveball question lands without looking thrown. The difference between a block and a yes and — and why it matters at work too. Word association as a daily brain warm-up. Why senior candidates and leaders are often the best yes anders in a room. Jess's personal story of how a single moment with her mum shaped her entire career.

  • Why Hiring Managers Go Quiet (And What To Do About It)
    2026/07/09
    You poured your heart into the application, finally landed the interview, and then — silence. In this solo episode, Kevin Cameron tackles one of the most common job search frustrations: how to stay top of mind with hiring managers and recruiters without spamming them, sounding desperate, or burning bridges. Kevin Cameron walks through a full system for follow-up from LinkedIn visibility tactics to email sequencing to networking touch points and explains why the silence almost never means what you think it means. Key Takeaways Silence from a hiring manager is rarely personal. Companies are juggling longer approval processes and more applicants than ever. Post on LinkedIn two to three times a week and comment genuinely on posts from people at your target companies. Send a value-add follow-up seven to ten days after an interview, another at day 14 to 28, and a final check-in at about a month out. Lead with help, not with need — people respond to value faster than to a request. Track every conversation and application in a spreadsheet or CRM so you always know where things stand. If you've followed up three times with no response, it's time to pause. Episode Highlights Why the open-to-work banner does not affect your salary negotiation. The three-touch follow-up sequence explained in detail. How to use AI as a resource for research, not as a replacement for your own voice. Why recording short video updates can make you more memorable than another email. The "ransom note" follow-up mistake that turns hiring managers away. Why protecting your mental health is a non-negotiable part of a long job search.

  • The Reverse Application: How to Get Hired Without a Job Posting
    2026/07/01
    In this solo episode, Kevin Cameron breaks down a concept that's not new, but rarely named: the reverse application. If you're tired of applying into a black hole and hearing nothing back, this episode flips the entire process upside down - starting with who you want to talk to, not what job is posted. Kevin Cameron explains how the informational interview works, why C-suite leaders are often more open to a conversation than you'd expect, and how to build a network you can return to throughout your career, not just when you're desperate for a job. Key Takeaways The reverse application starts with the skills you enjoy using, then finds where those skills are needed - not the other way around. Informational interviews are about understanding culture and fit, not pitching yourself for a role. Reach out using common ground: shared schools, employers, or events you both attend. Senior leaders are often more receptive to a conversation than junior staff. Track every conversation in a spreadsheet or CRM — it becomes one of your most valuable career assets. Follow up no more than once every three to four days if there's been no response, weekly once a conversation is ongoing. Episode Highlights Why this strategy has always existed under a different name: networking. The difference between an informational interview and a sales pitch. How to identify which companies might have an opening before a job is ever posted. Why people don't respond right away — and why that has nothing to do with you. How to keep the door open after a great conversation that didn't lead anywhere yet. Timestamps 00:00 — Introduction: what is the reverse application 01:56 — What an informational interview really is 04:00 — Preparing questions and doing your research 05:55 — Finding common ground to start a conversation 07:58 — Why C-suite leaders are often the most open to chatting 10:03 — Working backwards: skills, organisations, and your network 12:28 — Taking job search out of luck and into language 14:18 — Preparing your "elevator" direction 16:26 — Following up without overdoing it 19:59 — Why people don't respond right away 21:26 — Tracking your network like a career-long asset 23:40 — Final thoughts If you found this advice valuable, please hit subscribe, leave us a review.

  • The One Word Costing You the Job | with Lili Foggle
    2026/06/24
    Getting to the interview is hard enough right now but what happens when you get there and still don't get the job? In this episode, Kevin Cameron sits down with Lili Foggle of Impressive Interviewing, a communication coach with 10 years of experience, to talk about what actually separates the number one candidate from everyone else. Lili breaks down why skills alone won't get you the offer in the final round, how to use AI smartly without sabotaging yourself, and the one language mistake quietly costing candidates — especially women — jobs they're more than qualified for. Key Takeaways In the final round, everyone can do the job — the decision shifts to trust, likability, and fit. Research the company's real values by looking at what leadership is actually saying, not just the website. Never ask AI to write your interview answers. Use it for research and gap analysis. Stop using "we" for your achievements — own your contribution with "I." Your closing questions should be so specific they couldn't be asked anywhere else. Chaos in the hiring process usually means chaos in the culture. Episode Highlights Why only 3% of applicants land an interview and what that means for your prep. The shift that happens in the final round and why likability outweighs skills. Lili's five-list method for breaking down any job description. The study of 25,000 interview answers that proved "I" language predicts hiring decisions. The ping pong rule for small talk that makes you instantly more memorable.
