In this episode of Your Career GPS Podcast, Brad dives into the challenges faced by young job seekers in today's market with guest Alex Florio, co-founder of Swob Inc. They discuss the inspiration behind Swab, a job search platform designed to simplify the job application process, emphasizing quality over quantity in job applications. The conversation explores shifts in the job market dynamics post-COVID, common resume mistakes, the role of AI in job searching, and key ingredients for success in landing jobs. Alex shares insights on effective communication and networking, highlighting the importance of tailoring resumes and utilizing available resources for job seekers. Key takeaways: The job market is challenging for young professionals. Swab was inspired by the inefficiencies in job searching. Quality job applications are more effective than quantity. COVID shifted the job market dynamics significantly. Many job seekers still make basic resume mistakes. AI can be a helpful tool but shouldn't replace human effort. Strong communication is crucial in the job application process. Networking can significantly enhance job search success. Tailoring resumes to specific roles is essential. Swab focuses on entry-level roles in high turnover industries. Guest Info: Alexander Florio is the co-founder of Swob Inc., the Tinder for jobs. In November 2017, Alexander and his sister, Stephanie, launched Swob App, a job search platform designed to simplify job searching and recruitment. Through the use of technology, people looking for a job can now search in the comfort of their own phone! Swob is the first of its kind to target job seekers and high-turnover industries such as retail and food service for part-time, seasonal, and full-time employment. In May of 2018, Sir Richard Branson and Virgin Mobile Canada awarded Swob as the first ever Canadian company to win the "Pitch To Rich" contest. Since then, Alexander has appeared on BNN Bloomberg, E-Talk, The Feed with Amber Mac, Omni TV, The Marilyn Denis Show, etc., and spoke at Elevate Tech Fest in Toronto. Alexander is passionate about entrepreneurship, and has worked with the WE organization as a mentor for the WE Incubation Hub Program, which empowers young social entrepreneurs to develop and launch their own social enterprise.
