<p>As a high school junior, Brianna got excellent grades in advanced classes and kept to herself. Then life went off the rails. For years she worked extra hard doing anything she could to get by, and now she runs her own successful accounting agency. She shares her insights on business, hard work, and survival. (Plus we talk about copper heists, gore, the golden age of twitter, and whether skittles are a good investment.)</p>

#4 | Sleeping Through the SATs and Dreaming of his Own Restaurant: Eric Bialik’s Life in the Food Service Industry

The right conversation can be life-changing, especially when it involves learning from someone else’s choices, regrets, successes, and mistakes. Unfortunately, these kinds of profound, helpful conversations are hard to come by--you’re lucky if you have 2 or 3 of them as a young adult, and lots of people never even get to have a single one. Job Interviews is here to fill that void with honest, real, direct advice about school and careers from real people with real experiences. We conduct thorough, lively, funny interviews (or at least, we think they’re funny :) ) with all kinds of people. We find out about the work and school choices they made, how it all worked out for them, and what they would recommend to a young person in their field. You get the benefit of their life experiences without having to spend years learning hard lessons. Every single episode--just like every single life--includes twists, unexpected insights, and useful, concrete, actionable ideas you can start applying in your own quest, right now. We made this podcast to be the kind of resource that we wish had been available for us. We hope you like it, and we hope it helps you.
