Description
Tom Sosnoff, Scott Sheridan, and Sol discuss why narrowing your resume to one skill set dramatically increases your chances of landing interviews, with a viewer sharing their success story after applying this advice. The hosts break down how AI now screens resumes for large companies, why over 20% of LinkedIn job postings are fake, and how networking remains the key to accessing hidden opportunities in private equity and hedge funds. Callers ask about security clearances and job valuations, walking into companies unannounced, and the hosts share 37 years of lessons on business partnerships including what makes them work and how disagreements get resolved. Market talk covers Bitcoin volatility dropping by half and what that means for 2026 price expectations.
