What’s In This Episode:Is there a first day of work experience that's particularly memorable for you? Jill shares her worst first day of work story where her boss essentially said "Ok, go" then didn't look or speak to her for the entire day. What?! That's definitely a way to kick things off at a new job. On the other side of the spectrum, Brad remembers a job where on his first day, he already had business cards and log-in instructions for his computer right from the get-go. Plus, his boss took him on a tour of the office to introduce him to the team he'd be working with. From the very beginning, he knew what needed to be done and what his priorities were. Now that's an excellent way to make a first day impression! Brad and Jill help you make that same impression by sharing the Top 5 Things To Do On Your Employee's First Day in this episode and they welcome ice cream maven Natasha Case to the show. Listen in! »

What’s In This Episode:Hey, in a few days, we've got a thing going on.. are you in? Of course you're not! That invitation is incredibly unclear and includes zero details! Would you ever offer a job to someone in that same manner? If you want someone to say yes to something, you need to give them a firm and specific offer. Jill looks back on past offers she's given and wonders if she's been doing it wrong this entire time. So, you can't just hire someone and say "Go!"? Has her entire life been one long "oops"? Plus, we learn all about Brad's sturdy eyebrows. Continuing their series on hiring, Jill and Brad talk about the Top 5 Things You Need When You Make A Job Offer in this episode and they welcome brow whisperer Janae' Wesby to the show.

What’s In This Episode:Have you been on some bad interviews? Jill sure has. From a computer store fiasco in high school to "interviewing" with the ultimate New York jerk in college (it's ok, she still loves NY! #pizza), she's been burned and has learned from it the hard way. For Brad, a brilliant recruiter taught him an easy way to nail an interview, but unfortunately it doesn't involve learning about the job at all! Luckily, Brad is a stand-up guy who turned down a position (and a potential boss) that probably wasn't the right fit. Windex, pop vs. soda vs. Coke, a brand new self-awareness course called "No, You're Not" Jill will probably launch in late 2017...it's a jam packed episode! They also talk about the Top 5 Signs You Are Interviewing All Wrong and welcome author and business coach Amanda Young to the show. Listen in! » |

What’s In This Episode:Do you need to hire? Have you ever hired a friend, neighbor, or even someone you bumped into on the street? Jill admits to hiring anybody she bumps into, but is steadfast in never hiring family. You're too emotionally tied and it'll be difficult to fire them! Stay far far away from that situation! The best hires come through referrals; someone who knows you sends along a gem (who's already pre-vetted) - it's so great and much easier! If you aren't so lucky and you have to go through the hiring process, Jill and Brad share the Top 5 Ways To Make Your Job Posting "Pop" in this episode and welcome creative genius George Berlin to the show.
