Real conversations about work, confidence, and being seen.
Over the last two decades, we have spent a lot of time on the “other side” of the interview table. Together, Carol and Sarah have over 40 years of combined experience in recruitment and career coaching. We’ve reviewed hundreds of thousands of applications and conducted thousands of conversations about work, growth, and the hurdles in between.
So, why start a podcast now?
The truth is, we didn’t start Seen, Heard & Hired because we thought the world was lacking career advice. We started it because we realised the right conversations weren’t happening out in the open and also there’s so much misinformation, it’s easy to feel confused.
The Gap Between Talent and Confidence
We kept seeing a recurring theme, some of the most brilliant, capable professionals we meet simply do not see their own value. They are navigating a market that is competitive and ever-changing, often feeling stuck or invisible despite their expertise.
We wanted to create a space to share the advice no one gives you, the honest stories and practical insights from two people who have seen it all from the hiring side.
Who is this for?
We built this for three specific groups of people:
- The “Stuck” Professional: Those who feel stagnant and aren’t sure how to make their next bold move or transition.
- The Job Seeker: People navigating a flooded market who need to know how to actually stand out.
- The Hiring Leader: Leaders who want to get hiring right the first time and build better teams.
What We’re Diving Into
We aren’t here to give you generic platitudes. We’re here to talk about the realities of work. Over the coming episodes, we’ll be discussing:
- What hiring managers actually look for (but rarely say).
- How to build confidence in mid-career.
- Interview red flags and how to avoid them.
- Creating resumes that actually get read.
- What even is a phone screen and how important is it.
- How to get finally get noticed for that promotion
Join the Conversation
This is just the beginning. We’re excited to share these realities with you, along with the banter that comes from years of friendship and shared professional history.
