As a job search strategist and consultant, it was a privilege to be invited to be a guest on Macs List's "Find Your Dream Job" podcast. Being a former job seeker, I know what it’s like to be overwhelmed by all the career related information and Mac's List provides job seekers with comprehensive resources and knowledge, as they prepare for a successful job search. I’m excited that I got the opportunity to share my experience and expertise on one the top podcast for jobseekers. Thank you again!

Being relatively new to the Portland area, I am working on building my professional network. I recently attended Mac’s List event, “Meaningful Careers in Portland: Align Your Job with Your Values,” which was such a wonderful opportunity to meet so many enthusiastic, talented professionals working in purpose-driven fields throughout the city. I was amazed at the turnout and breadth of good works being done. Mac himself was present, accessible, and his desire to support meaningful work in Portland was palpable. This event was such a treat! I am absolutely looking forward to the next event and building relationships with all the wonderful folks I had the pleasure of meeting.

Mac’s List is a fantastic resource for job seekers in the Pacific Northwest. The weekly job digest highlights great opportunities, and Mac’s weekly 20-minute podcast shares practical career advice you can actually use. I’ve seen many students and alumni land jobs by following the tips shared and applying to positions from the digest—highly recommend!

I discovered the 'Find Your Dream Job' podcast some years ago and was an irregular listener back then. Then in 2020, I connected with Mac on LinkedIn. It's funny how some things stick. When I heard an episode a few months ago, after a long gap, I recognised the tropical opening jingle instantly!I love how crisp, actionable and non-fluffy each episode is, and you can tell that Mac takes great care to select his guests. If you are in transition today, Mac and Mac's list is a wealth of resources especially for you.Thank you Mac and team, for all you do.From:Sonal Bahl (a regular listener now!)

Mac's List is a reliable source for practical career and hiring advice. As a Mac’s List podcast guest my experience with Mac and his team was incredible! I knew right away that I was working with a company that values authenticity, but is also organized, thorough, and thoughtful. In the recording session I felt supported, honored, and uplifted. Mac offered patience and encouragement from beginning to end. Mac is a genuine soul eager to reach those who are searching for jobs, planning to fill vacancies, and/or uplift voices of companies and small businesses dedicated to this same work.
