Quebec careers podcasts

Career paths told from the inside

Career podcasts give you access to what a job posting does not say: the day-to-day of a trade, the detours of a career path and the decisions that led somewhere. Hearing someone talk about their beginnings, their failures and their changes of direction often helps you picture your own path more concretely. These accounts also show that a career is rarely built in a straight line.

• Interviews with people who describe their work day to day.
• Advice for a job search or a career change.
• Reflections on the balance between work and personal life.

Changing direction or starting a project

A career change often raises as many financial questions as personal ones. Entrepreneurship and management will interest those thinking about going out on their own, while the business category covers the economy and finance more broadly.

Starting a podcast can also become a professional project in itself. The guide to creating your show presents the steps to consider, from the concept to possible income.

Staying balanced during a transition

A period of professional change can weigh on your morale. The most consistent mental health podcasts help you step back, and fitness helps you keep an active routine when your schedule changes.

These episodes fit easily into a commute or a break, without upending your day. A few well-chosen episodes are usually enough to feed your thinking during a transition. Writing down the ideas that come out of an episode then lets you discuss them with a counsellor or someone close to you.
