Landing a job in a competitive industry can feel like an insurmountable challenge if you don’t have certain advantages, like family connections, wealth or a degree from a prestigious university. But it doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
In this episode of Get Hired, LinkedIn News Editor Andrew Seaman is joined by Jim VandeHei, a journalist-turned-entrepreneur who defied the odds to achieve remarkable success, first as a reporter and then as a founder of two media startups. In 2007, Jim co-founded Politico, revolutionizing the political journalism space; today he leads a team of 500 as the CEO of Axios. Jim’s sharing his advice for breaking into competitive fields by using your unique strengths, taking risks and exploiting luck.
This episode is for anyone aspiring to break into a field and feels discouraged by their lack of conventional advantage – but remains determined to pursue their passions and carve out their own path to success.
