Jason Alba knows how a job search “should” work. He learned a major lesson during his epic failure-of-a-job-search in early 2006. After having a successful start in his IT career, Jason found himself an unwilling participant in the job market. In 2006 it was supposedly a "job seeker's market."Jason quickly found that a "job seeker's market" does not mean the job search will be easy or short. His experience left him frustrated— feeling like a failure. Not someone to take that lightly, Jason determined to learn from his experience. By using his software and project management skills, Jason created a sales tool for job selection.Thus was born his app affectionately called JibberJobber, the first tool that allowed a job seeker to manage and organize a job search. The tool developed as Jason’s understanding of job search, career management, personal branding and networking evolved. JibberJobber went from a tool to track a job search into a tool that has helped tens of thousands manage multiple job transitions during one’s entire career.Today Jason manages his Utah business while he and his wife raise their family of 5 children.

It's not often you hear a Founder say all their developers are still on the team after 13 years in business. And, it's rare to hear the number 100,000 users with a Software as a Service (SaaS) company. But, both of these are true for Jason and his team at JibberJobber.com. Jason shares some of his mistakes and personal challenges on his bumpy road from Founder to CEO.

Welcome to the Courageous Entrepreneur Show. The show shares information and inspiration to help you break free from self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and disempowering patterns and break through to create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve. The show features interviews with entrepreneurs who share their stories of overcoming amazing challenges to achieve success on their terms and experts who share practical information to help you move forward with courage, confidence, and clarity. Those of us who fall into one of the demographic cohorts referred to as Baby Boomer, Generation Jones, or Generation X were raised to believe that the path to security, financial stability, and success was to go the traditional route of college, major in a degree that was useful, and then get a job, put your nose to the grind stone and maybe grab a corner office some day or at least a nice middle management role. But that path ISN'T the sure route to stability and security that it once was and degree areas that were believed to be recession proof have proven themselves not to be so. Jason Alba is the founder of JibberJobber.com. He designed this freemium tool as a result of his 2006 job search as a tool to help job seekers manage the search for employment; but it's also a great tool for solo professionals to use to manage their contacts and connnections. Jason is the best selling author of I'm on Linkedin Now What which is in its 4th edition and I consider it a classic. He's also the author of 51 Alternatives to a Real Job. His undergrad degree is in Computer Information Systems and he has an MBA in IT.
