Vouched
Vouched is a podcast about the people the hiring system overlooks, and the humans willing to stand up and say, "I know this person, and they're good." Hosted by Amber Meakin, each episode flips the script on modern hiring. When you apply for a job online, software usually screens your resume before a human ever sees it, and talented, qualified people get filtered out before anyone knows they exist. Vouched is the antidote: a real referral, in public, from someone who means it. Here's how it works. Every guest is someone worth vouching for. Sometimes Amber does the vouching; sometimes she brings on the former manager, teammate, or colleague who wants to. They share the story that made them a believer. Then we meet the candidate: who they are, what they're looking for next, and the qualities a resume and an applicant tracking system will never capture. Every episode closes with the candidate paying it forward by vouching for someone they've worked with. If you're hiring, consider this your warm intro to genuinely great people. If you're job searching, follow along. You're not a keyword or a gap on a timeline, you're a person with a track record. And if there's someone you'd vouch for, Amber wants to hear about them. New episodes weekly. You're more than just a resume.
