The Hiring Confessional
Hiring Confessional isn’t your typical career advice podcast. This is where we dig into the good, bad, and ugly of the hiring world—bad interviews, candidate horror stories, company blunders, stealth replacements, resume spam, and everything in between. Hosted by Michael Hayes of Momentum Hiring Solutions, each episode pulls back the curtain on the hiring process with raw commentary, industry guests, and stories that employers and employees are usually too polite to share.
