Podcast: navigating the job jungle

Job hunting can feel like slogging through a jungle—dead ends, endless scrolling, and the constant hope that someone will actually notice your résumé. Enter the headhunter. But what do they really bring to the table? Are they the true insiders with access to hidden opportunities, or just another myth in the job market maze? In this episode of Change Talks, Philippe Riboton, Managing Director of HR Partners Executive Search, sits down with Viktor Houška, podcaster and change management expert, to explore the real value of headhunters. Do they smooth the path forward or just add another hurdle to the hiring game? From AI’s growing role in recruitment to the frustration of searching when you’d rather be doing anything else, this episode cuts through the hype. If you’re wondering whether headhunters are part of the solution—or just more noise—this one’s for you. Available now on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
