MoveUp: Job Interviews, Negotiation, Promotions, Offers, Careers

Matthew Sorensen brings a resume that reads like a who's who of hiring: executive recruiter, search firm owner, talent acquisition VP, and interview coach. That background shows in every episode of MoveUp. He doesn't just tell you to "be confident" in interviews; he explains the exact mechanics of how hiring decisions get made behind closed doors and how to position yourself on the right side of those decisions. The podcast has 54 episodes and a remarkable 4.9-star rating from over 600 reviewers, which is unusually high for a careers podcast. Episodes alternate between solo strategy sessions and interviews with career experts. Recent topics include communication secrets that influence hiring decisions, pre-interview preparation steps most people skip, and negotiation tactics that go beyond the standard "know your worth" advice. One episode features negotiation expert Andres Lares sharing insights that business schools tend to gloss over. What makes MoveUp stand out is that it targets people aiming for mid-to-senior level roles. This isn't entry-level interview 101. Matthew talks about positioning for promotions, handling the "overqualified" label, and navigating complex offer situations. Episodes run weekly and land around 25-40 minutes. If you're looking to move up the ladder and want advice from someone who has sat on both sides of the interview table at the executive level, this one earns its spot near the top of the list.
