Fake job postings, career goals amid burnout and shifting algorithms
Good morning, skim for your weekly roundup of jobs, industry readings, resources and more.
‘Experts say this is how to set 2025 career goals if you’re feeling burned out’: Lisa Rabasca Roepe wrote for Fast Company about career coaches’ advice for navigating goal setting when feeling stressed or exhausted.
“Expect to fail and expect failure to be part of the process,” career and leadership coach Phoebe Gavin shared. “It’s not about how long you can up your streak of meeting your goal but how quickly you can go back to trying to meet it again when you miss the mark in some way.”
‘Fake job postings are becoming a real problem’: Lynn Cook wrote for The Wall Street Journal about how “one in five jobs advertised is fake or not filled, according to a new analysis.”
