The Job Hunting Podcast Portfolio Career: What is It, and Is It for You? - with Jacinta Whelan (Ep 78)
Jacinta and her colleague Caroline McAuliffe have co-authored a book, The Rise of the Interim Executive: A Guide to Navigate Your Success. This book is out this month and a must-read for professionals who are keen to move now or in the future towards interim work. I have five copies to give away to listeners. All you need to do is give this podcast 5 stars and write a review on iTunes or the Apple podcast app, send me a screenshot with your postal address, and I will send you a brand new, off the print copy of the book. This is a first in the best-dressed promotion and I only have 5 copies, so please hurry - you don’t want to miss out!
