Welcome to the final episode of Season 1! Today on the show, I’m talking to Andrew Seaman, Senior Managing Editor for Jobs & Career Development at LinkedIn News, who helms LinkedIn's wildly popular Get Hired and Get Ahead newsletters and the Get Hired podcast.  Few people have as unique of a perch as Andrew does, waking up every day and reporting on the world of work and careers, with a mission to help people succeed in what they do. Plus, he knows a thing or two about career journeys, having moved from one of the world’s oldest media companies to one of the newest, and even pitching his own job to his bosses. I wanted to pick Andrew’s brain to glean some of the biggest insights he’s discovered on the world of work, as well as ask him to reflect on his own career. We talk about how generative AI will affect work, what it’s like to work for a news team owned by a tech company that’s owned by another tech company, and get his thoughts as a former medical journalist on the COVID-19 coverage. Stick around for the rapid fire where he shares the best and worst career advice he’s ever received, and his favorite interviewee.
