About The Job Market Sh*t Show

The Job Market Sh*t Show: How AI Broke Hiring and What Might Be Next is an investigation into how hiring actually works now, how AI and automation have upended the process, and why the old rules no longer apply. It blends reporting, analysis, and firsthand stories from inside a labor market that’s increasingly algorithmic, opaque, and indifferent to the people moving through it—while asking what, if anything, might replace a system that no longer seems to work for humans on either side of the process.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with nonfiction ghostwriter and thought leadership strategist Jamie Dykstra about the one thing AI can’t manufacture: conviction. Jamie helps executives and founders uncover their authentic voice—the durable throughline that carries across roles, industries, and seasons of a career. Together, they explore why authenticity is more than a buzzword, how defining one specific audience sharpens your positioning, and why leaders who don’t know what they stand for risk blending into the noise.

They also dive into the evolving role of AI in writing and leadership, where it’s a powerful tool, and where it falls short. The takeaway is clear: technology can amplify your message, but it cannot supply your clarity. In a marketplace saturated with content, voice is the differentiator—and clarity is the work.

Drawing on 25 years of rescuing broken transformation projects, Barbara makes the case for investing in “human infrastructure” — the trusted middle leaders who turn strategy into execution. Together, they unpack how empowering just a small cohort of these quiet operators can reduce reliance on consultants, strengthen collaboration, and build the collective intelligence organizations need to thrive in an AI-driven world. If you are leading change and wondering why adoption lags or strategy stalls, this conversation offers a practical, human-centered path forward.

But what if the real friction isn’t "out there"?

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine sits down with certified executive coach Rob Wise to explore the concept of leadership saboteurs—the hidden patterns of thinking that quietly shape our behavior when we’re stressed, tired, or feeling threatened.

From the ever-present Judge to the Controller, the Hyper-Achiever, the Pleaser, and more, Rob breaks down how the very traits that fueled your success can, under pressure, start to erode trust, culture, and clarity. Together, Josh and Rob unpack the difference between judgment and discernment, reaction and response, insight and actual behavior change.

They also dig into the practical side of transformation. Why awareness alone rarely rewires behavior. Why physical interruption matters. And how a simple pause can shift you from critique to curiosity in moments that matter most.

This conversation is not about eliminating your shadow side. It’s about integrating it. Because leadership is not the absence of triggers. It’s the ability to navigate them with intention.

If you’ve ever fired off an email you regretted, defaulted to control when things felt uncertain, or called your defensiveness “high standards,” this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar—in the best possible way.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with performance psychotherapist Jade Wood, MA, LMFT, MHSA about the overlooked power of emotional intelligence at work. They explore how trust breaks down when leaders lack self-awareness, why most 360 reviews fall flat, and what actually helps people grow: understanding how others experience you.

Jade shares practical ways to build emotional fluency, explains why most conflict is unhealed trauma in disguise, and offers two deceptively simple questions that can shift how you lead. If you're building culture or managing people, this episode reframes EQ as a critical leadership muscle—one that separates good teams from great ones.

Applying for jobs used to mean competing with other people. Now, it often means competing with machines. In this episode, Josh looks at how AI has turned the job search into an arms race—where applicants experiment with prompt injection, keyword stuffing, and other tactics just to get a human to look at their résumé. He revisits Nathan, an AI researcher who’s tracked his response rates down to the percentage point, and explores why even small changes—like leaving in typos—can feel worth trying in a black-box system that offers no feedback. Along the way, Josh examines how “defensive cheating” is spreading, why recruiters are divided on whether these tactics are clever or deceitful, and what gets lost when hiring becomes a game of outsmarting bots instead of finding capable humans.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine sits down with Dr. Allen Lycka, known as the Doctor of Happiness, to explore why leaders feel overwhelmed, distracted, and constantly on edge in an always-on world. What starts as a conversation about stress quickly becomes a deeper examination of fear, perspective, and the mental habits that either trap us or set us free.

Dr. Lycka breaks down how the brain responds to constant stimulus, why most of what we fear never actually happens, and how simple practices like breathwork, gratitude, and honoring natural cycles help leaders regain clarity. Drawing on neuroscience, lived experience, and insights from Viktor Frankl, the conversation reframes resilience not as grinding harder, but as widening the frame through which we see our lives and our work.

They discuss leadership in uncertainty, the cost of ignoring rest and seasonality, and why treating perspective as a discipline—not a personality trait—may be one of the most important leadership skills of this decade.

If you’re leading a team, an organization, or yourself through relentless change, this episode offers a calmer, more grounded way forward.

Job postings used to mean something. Now? They might just be corporate fan fiction. In this episode, Josh digs into ghost jobs—roles that look real but never get filled. He unpacks the story of a product manager who applied with a referral and still never got seen, and talks with a career coach who’s helped hundreds navigate the same dead ends. Whether it’s PR spin, bench-building, or future-proofing a hiring freeze, these jobs waste more than time—they drain hope. And while we can’t stop companies from posting them, we can learn how to spot them sooner.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with culture strategist and Call for Culture founder Angela Howard about why leaders keep misreading Gen Z—and how the familiar complaint “the kids don’t want to work” is really a signal of a broken social contract. From quiet quitting to calling out employers online, Angela explains why these moments aren’t trends, but symptoms of a deeper shift in power, fairness, and expectations at work.

They explore how technology has given employees a voice previous generations never had, why ambition is being mislabeled as entitlement, and how organizations default to short-term efficiency at the expense of long-term resilience. The conversation digs into culture as risk management, why workplaces lag behind societal change, and what it actually means to treat people like humans—not resources.

If you’re a leader navigating generational tension, return-to-office debates, or rising disengagement, this episode reframes the challenge. The question isn’t how to fix Gen Z—it’s whether your organization is willing to evolve before the next reckoning arrives.

Applying online feels like shouting into the void—and that’s because, more often than not, your first interviewer is a robot. In this episode, Josh breaks down the rise of AI in hiring: how automation is reshaping resume screening, where bias creeps in, and why so many qualified candidates are ghosted by systems that were built for efficiency, not fairness. Plus, why networking—not keyword cramming—might be your best bet for getting seen.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine sits down with cultural futurist and brand strategist Jasmine Bina to unpack why the old equation—work = reward—no longer adds up. From TikTok algorithms to crypto millionaires to GLP-1s rewriting the rules of body politics, Jasmine explains how our culture is shifting away from effort-based outcomes and toward something far more unpredictable.

They dive into what this decoupling of work and reward means for leaders: why office mandates feel hollow, how the free agent mindset is reshaping loyalty, and what managers need to understand about meaning, motivation, and why everyone—yes, everyone—has an exit fantasy now.

If you’re seeing signs of disconnection on your team but can’t quite name the cause, this conversation offers a new lens. And a challenge: are you clear about the role your organization plays in people’s lives? Because your employees are already deciding for themselves.

LinkedIn is noisy, frustrating, and often feels like a job search dead end—so why are we still using it? In this episode, Josh unpacks the tension we all feel about the platform, exploring what still works (profiles, networks, discovery) and what definitely doesn’t (spam, false leads, and the chaos of too much noise). Plus, a glimpse into how job seekers are starting to reclaim control—one Slack or Discord community at a time.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with empathy researcher Alison Jane Martingano, Ph.D. about why “cameras on” doesn’t actually bring us closer—and what does.

Dr. Martingano studies how empathy works (and breaks) in remote work. In this conversation, she explains the difference between cognitive and emotional empathy, why video calls can actually block connection, and how to rebuild the contextual cues we used to get for free in an office.

Together, they dig into the science of empathy, the social cost of ignoring it, and how to create rituals that make space for real connection—even when you’re just a square on a screen.

If you’ve ever left a meeting feeling like something was off—but couldn’t put your finger on it—this episode will help you name the problem and give you tools to fix it.

The job market’s broken, and it starts with volume. In this episode, we look at how applying for jobs turned into a numbers game—fueled by one-click applications, AI bots, and overwhelmed recruiters. Featuring the story of Nathan S., an AI researcher rethinking what “fit” even means, we dig into the applicant tsunami and ask: how do you stand out in a system built to ignore you?

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with Greg Larkin, former Bloomberg Innovation Director and founder of the executive network Punks & Pinstripes, about why corporate loyalty is dead—and what that means for your career.

Greg has helped hundreds of high-performing leaders navigate inflection points in their careers. He believes reinvention isn’t just a phase—it’s a survival skill. In this conversation, he shares the “Four Horsemen of Reinvention,” offers practical litmus tests to assess whether your job is a catalyst or a constraint, and explains the difference between getting rich and getting free.

Together, they unpack why urgency can fuel transformation, how to build your “reinvention go-bag,” and why the community you build when you don’t need help is the one that will catch you when you do.

Whether you’re thinking about a change or trying to make sense of a sudden shift, this episode will challenge your assumptions and offer a new framework for navigating your professional path with clarity and purpose.

Josh opens the episode with a brief introduction before joining Al and Leanne to tackle a challenge many leaders face: how to scale a company without breaking the culture that made it work in the first place. When a team grows from 15 to 50—or 100—what changes? What gets lost? And what can leaders do to protect trust, connection, and shared purpose as complexity increases?

Drawing on research and real-world experience, this conversation explores the fears behind growth, the myths leaders believe about culture at scale, and practical ways to think about culture as something designed—not accidentally diluted.

We’ve got Conan at the Oscars, gothic weirdos ruling Netflix (Wednesday, again), and an animated K-pop squad fighting demons (yes, really).

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with Valerie Jardon, Managing Director of Strategy at IA (Interior Architects), about the intersection of space, experience, and culture. Valerie leads multidisciplinary teams that bring human science into architecture, helping organizations build spaces that don’t just look good—but feel good to work in.

Together, they unpack the quiet signals physical space sends, how poor design can erode trust, and why the return-to-office conversation needs to shift from mandates to meaning. You’ll learn how something as small as a wellness room—or as subtle as scent—can impact employee engagement, and why convenience is more than a perk. It’s culture in action.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with Dr. Ryan Martin, psychologist, anger researcher, and author of Emotion Hacks. Known as the “Anger Professor,” Ryan brings clarity to what anger really is, why we feel it, and how it shows up in the conference room just as much as it does on the highway.

From dissecting the emotional chain reaction that leads to blowups, to offering science-backed tools for stepping back before hitting send, Ryan shares how we can respond to anger with strategy instead of instinct. You’ll learn why empathy isn’t just a soft skill, why silence can sometimes say more than speaking, and how HR professionals can hold space without absorbing the heat.

Whether you’re leading a team through tough feedback, mediating conflict between colleagues, or working on your own reaction habits, this episode is a powerful reminder: anger is not a failure. It’s an invitation to act with intention.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine talks with Margot Machol Bisnow, author of Raising an Entrepreneur, about what it really takes to help kids grow into curious, gritty, and resilient humans. Drawing from interviews with 70+ entrepreneurs and their parents—including her own experience raising two entrepreneurial sons—Margot shares what most report cards miss: the drive to pursue passion, fail forward, and keep going.

This conversation explores why traditional metrics like test scores don’t predict entrepreneurial success, how parents can foster a growth mindset without micromanaging, and what it means to parent more like a founder—spotting sparks and stepping back so kids can find their own way.

Whether you’re raising kids, mentoring young talent, or simply trying to lead with more intention, this episode is a powerful reminder: success isn’t about molding—it’s about listening, trusting, and letting curiosity lead.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine sits down with Jennifer Turner, Director of Organizational Strategy for Alphabet Companies at Google, to talk about what happens when hype hijacks long-term thinking. From her unique perch advising Alphabet’s portfolio companies, Jennifer shares how leaders can stay grounded, resist panic, and design with intention—even in a moment defined by disruption.

This conversation dives into the difference between experimentation and distraction, how short-term wins can quietly derail long-term goals, and why the future belongs to leaders who can look up, see around corners, and—maybe most important—approach it all with a little more lightness.

Whether you're an executive navigating AI pressure, a startup founder redefining your org chart, or simply someone trying to lead with purpose in a changing world, this episode is a reminder: urgency is not the same as importance.

About Our Guest:

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine welcomes Corey Rosen—author, storyteller, and founder of Your Story, Well Told—to unpack the power of storytelling as a tool for influence and internal change. Corey’s new book, A Story for Everything, offers a clear framework for using stories to move people to action at work, at school, and at home.

This conversation explores why data alone doesn’t persuade, how to structure a compelling story (hint: it takes more than just “what happened”), and what to do when your idea hasn’t happened yet. Corey shares real-world case studies—from saving a beloved classroom pet program to writing better fundraising emails—that show how story builds connection, trust, and buy-in.

Whether you’re trying to sell a new initiative to your boss, secure funding for a project, or just get your team to work better together—this episode will teach you how to lead with story, not slides.

On this episode of Great Mondays Radio, host Josh Levine sits down with Leanne Elliott—occupational psychologist, co-host of the UK’s #1 management podcast Truth, Lies, and Work, and founder of Oblong—to dismantle the myths around culture and redefine it as a business-critical system rooted in behavior.

This conversation dives into why the most popular culture surveys often miss the mark, how psychosocial risk factors offer a better measurement model, and what it really takes to turn people data into business results. We talk about why defining “culture” is still a struggle, how to connect team behavior to strategy, and what kind of leadership infrastructure companies will need to compete in the next decade.

If you’re tired of fluffy culture talk, confused by what data to collect, or ready to build a culture function with the same rigor as finance—this is your episode.

Forget icebreakers and offsites that go nowhere. Elysia breaks down how to create moments that matter, what creatives (and non-creatives) really need to show up, and why efficiency might be killing your company’s creativity.

In this episode of Great Mondays Radio, we sit down with crisis communications pro Chris Beard to talk through what actually happens when a leadership scandal goes viral. Not hypotheticals—real reputational meltdowns, where your CEO makes headlines and your brand becomes a meme.

We unpack how companies can (and should) respond in those first critical hours, why most don’t get it right, and what it really takes to own the narrative without spinning out.

This isn’t about cleaning up a mess. It’s about building the kind of culture that can survive one.

We discuss:

• Why the first few hours matter more than you think
• How to communicate with honesty and protect the business
• What happens when lawyers steer the story—and how to find balance
• Why “reputation equity” might be your most valuable asset

In this episode, author and Circle Leadership founder Dave Clare joins Josh Levine to talk about how leaders can stay competitive in an AI-powered world. His latest book, humAIn (yes, that’s H-U-M-A-I-N), is a call to action for anyone trying to lead in an era when machines are getting smarter, faster, and cheaper—and culture is the only real differentiator left.

This is about more than just staying ahead of the curve. It’s about building organizations that are built to care—not just scale. Because when AI levels the playing field, the companies that win are the ones that capture the spirit of their people.

If you’re a founder, team leader, or just someone wondering what it really means to “do work you love” in the age of AI, this one’s for you.

We cover:

• Why AI is the great flattener—and what that means for your competitive edge
• How treating people as “human beings first, employees second” changes everything
• Why every organization needs digital guardrails as much as human ones

Culture isn’t just a perk. It’s your only real advantage when everything else becomes equal.

In this episode of Great Mondays Radio, Corey delves into how the stories we share about our companies significantly influence the perception of our values and beliefs. According to Corey, the secret to compelling storytelling is to focus on simplicity, universality, concreteness, and credibility. These "sticky stories" are easy to understand, relatable to a broad audience, tangible, and believable. While it's important to celebrate successes, the stories that often resonate the most are those of failure and the lessons learned from them. Embracing vulnerability and honesty in storytelling can lead to more meaningful engagement with stakeholders. Authentic stories, grounded in real experiences, can make a company's messaging more credible and impactful.

In this episode of Great Mondays Radio, Alessandra discusses how living in different countries has influenced her view of company culture. She dives into the need for global corporations to include different national cultures into their practices. It is easy to fall into the swing of promoting local needs and interests, but doing so halts innovation and growth. Throughout this episode, Alessandra and Josh relate the different layers of international culture to the layers of a cake. While the base revolves around quintessential human needs like understanding, a sense of achievement, and forgiveness, the layers of the cake continue to grow with organizational and international insights.
