Introduction

Patrick
My guest this week is Kathryn Minshew, the Co-Founder and CEO of The Muse and co-author of The New Rules for Work: The Modern Playbook for Navigating Your Career. I've learned in business that the quality of people and the culture they create dictate outcomes. Having made plenty of mistakes hiring and having had many enormous successes, I'm always interested in best practices for finding and successfully recruiting the right people.

Given that Kathryn runs a jobs marketplace and has written a book on the topic, she's the perfect person to explore some of the core concepts around hiring people with the right positions. We discuss how companies should market to prospective employees, how employees should represent themselves to employers and the most common mistakes she sees across the hiring landscape. Please enjoy our conversation.
