Episode 19: Mastering Visibility in Your Modern Job Search with Teegan Bartos
How do you actually stand out in today’s hiring landscape? Learn why visibility, ethics, and strategy matter more than ever.
In this episode of Work Should Feel Good, I’m joined by Teegan Bartos, Founder & CEO of Jolt Your Career and creator of "Thought Leadership for Corporate Types." Teegan brings her signature no-nonsense Chicago style to unpack what really works in modern job searches.
We explore her journey from workforce development to launching her own business, why she walked away from traditional recruiting, and how she’s redefining ethical hiring practices. Teegan and I also dive into resume scanning tools like Jobscan and Teal, automated job applications (spoiler alert: ick), navigating board interviews, and the truth about what hiring managers actually care about.
If you’re tired of job search advice that feels outdated or impersonal, this is the episode for you.
