Podcastin kahdeksannessa jaksossa pohdin työelämää kolmekymppisten näkökulmasta. Ylen artikkelin mukaan työlle asetetut odotukset ja vaatimukset ovat muuttuneet nuorten sukupolvien myötä. Tuore väitöstutkimus osoittaa, että etenkin nuoret naiset toivovat työltään merkityksellisyyttä. Onko työhyvinvoinnilla merkitystä?

Mainitsemani artikkeli Millenniaaleille työhyvinvointi on uusi normaali – irtisanoutunut kolmekymppinen: ”Miksi työpaikka on niin pyhä, ettei sieltä voisi lähteä?” https://yle.fi/a/74-20013804

8. jakso: Työhyvinvointi

Unemployment is common, especially nowadays, with Covid-19 layoffs. There's absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, and there's no reason to hide that you're unemployed from your family, friends, and professional network. In fact, you are far more likely to land a job quickly if you do tell people you're unemployed. Yet, it's not something that just rolls off the tongue. 

In this episode, you will learn what details you need to share when telling someone you're looking for a job. You'll also learn the attitude you should adopt and what not to say. Then, you'll hear a story from when I attended a career fair with my sister, and she told a lot of people she was looking for a job. I share how we prepared for it and how it paid off for her big time.

In the end, you'll hear definitions of ten idioms and phrases that came up during the episode.
