Summary
By the numbers, the job market may look solid. But for many job seekers, the experience feels far more uncertain, frustrating, and opaque. In this episode of The Important Part: Investing with Liz Thomas, Liz sits down with Andrew Seaman, LinkedIn’s Editor at Large for Jobs and Career Development, to better understand what is really happening inside today’s hiring market. They discuss the disconnect between the macro data and the lived experience of job seekers, why the hiring process can feel so difficult to navigate, how companies are evaluating candidates, and the growing role AI is playing on both sides of the job search. Seaman also shares perspective on what candidates may be missing, how job seekers can think more strategically about the process, and why positioning yourself clearly may matter more than ever in a changing labor market.
