    EP 19 Career Pivots with Terri Dien
    2025/09/01

    Terri Dien went from White House Press Office to campaign wins to culinary school at 30-something, then stacked skills across restaurants, teaching, corporate dining, four cookbooks, and now voiceover. We cover: how to test and iterate, translate strengths into new lanes, use networks instead of blind applying, design better learning with simple takeaways, and why failing in public is often the fastest teacher. Speed round at the end (Zuni roast chicken fans, unite).

  • The Seasons of Hiring

    The Seasons of Hiring
    2025/08/24
    FutureProof You Podcast — EP 18: “Seasons of Hiring”One‑linerWhen should a job seeker push hard versus play the long game? Aaron Makelky, John Lovig, and Dan Yu map the hiring year—late summer slowdown, Q4 surge, bonus-season churn, and spring steadiness—and give a practical playbook for each.TL;DR TakeawaysLate summer is slower (vacations, back‑to‑school), so expect longer response times—use the window to upgrade the profile, post consistently, and pre-seed networking for September.Signals that the market’s waking up: more job postings, noticeable LinkedIn activity, and companies hiring recruiters (hiring follows recruiters).Q4 moves fast: “use‑it‑or‑lose‑it” budgets, pockets of holiday slowdowns—win with “politeful pestering,” clear availability, and transparent timing across parallel processes.Year‑end to Q1: bonus visibility and payouts trigger candidate movement; January is quiet, then momentum builds—by March through May, hiring is steady and planned.Always be networking and creating social proof (content, recommendations); the work done today often pays off quarters later.Chapter Guide00:00 — Welcome + why “seasons of hiring” matter01:07 — Late summer slowdown: vacations, back‑to‑school, two‑week decision drag02:30 — What to do now: still apply to active roles, and always apply on the company site (ATS searchable)04:05 — Signs of the turn: more postings, more LinkedIn activity, recruiter job counts as a health gauge05:24 — Q4 dynamic: budgets, “use it or lose it,” and holiday slowdowns to plan around07:08 — Content still works in “dead zones” (algorithms serve later); prep for the fall push08:30 — Natural holiday networking + plotting the rest of the year09:16 — Client win: from placeholder profile to offer in ~60 days through optimization + posting12:00 — Social proof: help your network (and yourself) with better profiles and recommendations17:20 — October tactics: “time kills all deals,” sequence outreach to newly hired recruiters19:19 — “Politeful pestering,” follow‑ups, and being mindful of varied holiday calendars20:32 — Share real timing across processes to create urgency (without games)22:00 — “Sell to the no”: fast no beats a slow maybe23:03 — Bonus season timing: when movement spikes and how to plan24:33 — Q1/Q2 cadence: January quiet → March–May steady, with quarterly headcount plans27:03 — The long game: groundwork in Q3 pays off in Q4/Q1/Q228:00 — Parting mindset: network when you have a job as if you don’tThe Seasonal PlaybookLate Summer (now → early September)Expect slower scheduling; keep applying where signals are active (recent views, engaged recruiters).Always apply on the corporate site in addition to Easy Apply to get searchable in the ATS.Post consistently—algorithms will surface good content when the audience returns.Pre‑seed September: identify target teams, warm up intros, and reconnect with recruiters.Fall/Q4 (late September → mid‑December)Budgets drive urgency; hiring velocity increases.Sequence outreach to newly hired recruiters: congrats note → light check‑in week 2/3 → request informational.“Politeful pestering”: short, specific follow‑ups with ready‑to‑book availability to reduce friction.Be transparent about timelines if in mid‑rounds elsewhere; it gives partners permission to accelerate.Plan around holiday gaps (e.g., Thanksgiving week and other cultural/faith calendars).Year‑End/Bonus Season (late Dec → Q1)Understand bonus timing in the target industry; movement often starts at visibility, spikes post‑payout.If moving, get pipelines warmed ahead of payout so interviews land just‑in‑time.Q1/Q2 (Jan → May)January is quiet but directional; executive and strategic hires form early.By March–May, hiring is steady and planned across quarterly headcount—network before roles post.Social Proof & Profile MovesUpgrade from “placeholder” to discoverable: banner, headline, outcomes in experience, relevant skills, and consistent posting.Give and request recommendations to create undeniable social proof.“Conference commando” strategy: follow speakers, send thoughtful pre‑event DMs, and be top‑of‑mind offline.Power Lines to Steal“Time kills all deals.”“Politeful pestering.”“Sell to the no.”“Use‑it‑or‑lose‑it budgets.”“The algorithm will serve good content when the audience returns.”HostsAaron Makelky - John Lovig - Dan YuCall to ActionWant help tuning up a LinkedIn profile, building a simple content engine, or navigating interviews the way recruiters actually work?
