This podcast interviews Bob Moesta, author of "Job Moves," about finding and keeping fulfilling jobs. The conversation explores the distinction between job features (salary, title) and job experiences, emphasizing that experiences drive job satisfaction. Moesta introduces four "quests" people undertake when seeking new roles (get out, next step, regain control, realign) and offers a framework for identifying personal energy drivers and drains to inform job choices. He suggests "prototyping" potential jobs through informational interviews and crafting a career story to highlight skills and experiences. Listeners gain a practical framework for self-assessment and job searching, including the concept of a "jobcation" as a strategic career move.
