112: Where are they now? Jon Tesser on moving forward after toxic workplaces and internet haters

How I Got Hired

Today’s episode is part of my series ‘Where are they now’ to check up on how some of my past guests are getting on and how sometimes the best laid plans can go differently.

Jon Tesser was a guest on the show back in Dec 2020 on episode 10 titled ‘Dream Jobs & Dream Bosses’ and we chatted about his career at NYC & Co, New York Magazine, Viacom.

Since then, Jon has been through a layoff and a job change, and we need an update.
In this episode, we talk about it all:
- When a job turns out differently than what was described
- Being at the receiving end of ageism, racism and sexism
- How to detext any potential red flags during the final rounds of job interviews
- How therapy and meditation are tools in Jon's toolbox to build more resilience
.. and so much more
Brace yourself, there’s a lot more honesty than you might be used to!! Hope you enjoy the listen and learn as much as I did.
