It is possible to get a job in public health or global health as a recent graduate with “little” experience. It is also possible to get a job after moving from a different country or after changing careers. Despite these possibilities, many barriers exist in reality.

In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, we help to address questions from 100s of people in our community by bringing in a Career Coach and Talent Consultant to share some insider information on what employers are actually looking for in your resume, cover letter, and job interview to get you one step closer to landing your target job.

Note:  This podcast is based on a Live Q&A that was initially recorded in April 2022.
