THE LITTLE BOOK

The Little Book to Land Your Dream Job, written by Billy Clark and Clayton Apgar, is a guide of essentials for understanding who you are and how to build a fulfilling career. During times of both opportunity and uncertainty, understanding your professional trajectory can be the key to landing your next job – perhaps one you never even considered.

THE HIRE LIFE PODCAST

In The Hire Life, Billy Clark, Clayton Apgar and Everett Hollander explore what it means to identify and pursue one’s dream job, speaking with professionals from all industries who have done just that, sharing the secrets – or not-so-secrets – to their success. Both entertaining and accessible, The Hire Life examines what ‘work’ looks like in the 21st century.

THE HIRE LIFE SUBSTACK

In a Substack, also called The Hire Life, Billy Clark, Clayton Apgar and Everett Hollander write about corporate culture, the professional environment and career strategy.
