EP21 从美国小镇青年,到电影制作公司老板

上期节目中,嘉宾云蝶提到她南加州大学新闻学院的同学里,有人已经有了自己的电影制作公司。出于好奇,我火速联系到了这位名叫Balin Schneider的有为青年,发现他的电影之路,始于大学时的一次电影课作业,起初只想为自己喜欢的乐队——上世纪九十年代风靡芝加哥的强力流行摇滚组合Material Issue——拍一支短片,但没想到这一拍就拍了整整五年,最终成为了一部让他得以在电影界闪亮登场的长片。连片中的主人公——Material Issue仍在世的两位成员——都说:“Balin,我觉得你现在比我们自己都更了解我们的过去”。此后Balin便与该部纪录片的制作班底共同创立了一家电影工作室,一边给BlackPink、Ed Sheeran、Panic! at the Disco等音乐大咖拍片挣钱,一边继续为自己的严肃纪录片理想努力。我请他聊了聊他与电影的结缘、开公司的经历、在南加州大学新闻项目深造的体验,还有从美国中西部小镇搬到大城市洛杉矶打拼的心路历程。顺便还问了问他:除了像奈飞这类的流媒体和奥斯卡提名名单,我们还能从哪儿发掘值得一看的优质纪录片? They Preserve Your Story Better Than You Do, with Documentarian Balin Schneider When the power pop band "Material Issue" soared to stardom, Balin Schneider was just born. Yet it's as if he was right there in the crowd at their concerts, experiencing every beat and melody firsthand, after he spent several years making a documentary about the band’s ascent and downfall. What began as a short student project blossomed into a full-fledged feature film and a lifelong passion for filmmaking. In this episode, Lulu talks with Balin Schneider, a LA-based documentary filmmaker/reporter/Executive Director of arvonia films. His first feature film, Out of Time: The Material Issue Story (https://www.arvoniafilms.com/outoftime) premiered at Sound Unseen Film Festival and played in theaters nationwide. He has directed projects with artists such as Gym Class Heroes, Panic! At The Disco, The Academy Is…, BLACKPINK, Cobra Starship and Ed Sheeran. He currently attends the University of Southern California (USC) for his Master of Arts in Specialized Journalism with a focus on International reporting. He has written for LAist, The 74 and his work has been featured in Forbes, Axios, Brooklyn Vegan and Pitchfork. You’ll hear about: What inspired him to tell the story of a band that seems 'out of time'? What does it like to start one’s own film production company? Why might a filmmaker be interested in pursuing a journalism degree? Where can we discover good documentaries?

当超市纷纷将南瓜摆放在最显眼的位置,秋天也随之而至。咖啡店开始强推南瓜拿铁,面包房里飘着南瓜吐司香;连意大利通心粉也蹭要热度,变身成了南瓜的形状。你会惊异于南瓜的家族之大、之奇葩:橙的黄的,白的绿的;弯弯曲曲的,疙疙瘩瘩的;像飞碟的,像蘑菇的…真的很难挑出最喜欢的一只带回家。南瓜也是美国年末各大节假日里的刚需,无论是在万圣节刻灯,还是感恩节做派,都要消耗不计其数的南瓜。在万众疯狂采购南瓜之际,种南瓜的农民们,是不是要赢麻了? 带着这个问题,我在金秋十月里的一个周末前往了美国西海岸最古老的南瓜农场——Arata‘s Pumpkin Farm,他们自大萧条那会儿,就开始种南瓜、卖南瓜了。现任场主名叫Chris,是希腊裔。农场在他接管之后又增设了有希腊特色的牛头人迷宫、鬼屋、干草车等游乐设施——最老的南瓜农场也成为了最好玩的南瓜农场。Chris在他三十岁出头就来农场了,现在他的孙子都能在农场到处跑了。秋天的周末是农场最忙的时候,我在Chris稍稍闲下来时截住了他,问了问:农场所在的半月湾地区如何成为美国西海岸的南瓜之都?作为老饕的他有什么南瓜花式吃法?过季的南瓜都去哪儿了?南瓜究竟是不是美国秋天最好的生意? 节目视频版请见:https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1m94y1t7tR/ Absolutely Gourd-geous: A Chat with the Owner of Arata's Pumpkin Farm Hey there, pumpkin lovers!

EP18 这个重庆妹,和辣椒一样热烈直爽 feat. 火锅皇后廖韦佳

今年年初,我和火锅皇后辣酱的创始人廖韦佳聊了一次天,她说想把纯正的重庆味道带到美国市场。那时她的辣酱还漂在海上。就在上个月,韦佳带着她的品牌在全球最大的有机产品展——美国西部天然产品博览会上亮相。该展会每年都会吸引无数食品饮料新品牌,今年就有超过三千名的展商。在一票以“绿色”、“养生”为卖点的摊位中,略显重口的中式辣酱是如何吸引到业内买家的目光? 上次聊天时我和韦佳用的的是中文,她谈到了她那被奉为火锅界传奇的妈妈--重庆小天鹅火锅的创始人和鸳鸯火锅的发明者何永智女士对她的影响。而在这次的续集里,韦佳切换到了英文语境,聊得也更多的是她自己打造品牌时的思路与考量。有人说,当你讲不同的语言时,你所展现的性格也会不一样。相信你能从这期节目中,更直接地感受到这个重庆妹子的热情、果敢与直爽;并会发现,原来辣椒还能加在这些让人意想不到的食物上… The Essence of Chongqing Hot pot, All in a Jar, with Hotpot Queen For ethnic cuisines, navigating the balance between authenticity and adaptation can be tricky. While there’s a strong urge to stay true to the original recipe, compromises have to be made to appeal to the local palate. But Jia, the founder of a Chinese sauce brand called Hotpot Queen, doesn’t want to play it safe and aspires to bring the boldest Sichuan flavors to Americans’ plates — from sandwich to ice cream. Besides the unapologetic spiciness and numbness, her sauce has a secret element that adds a kick — the love and passion passed down through her mom and generations of Chongqing women. In this episode, Lulu talks with Jia, the founder of Hotpot Queen, whose fiery personality tastes just like her sauces. You’ll hear about: * How do brands get the most out of Natural Products Expo West? * What are the top organic food trends for 2023? * What makes Hotpot Queen different from other hot sauce brands? * Which foods pair surprisingly well with hot sauce?

EP17 麻辣:一种不是味道的味道

火锅、烤鱼、小龙虾…一口入魂的麻辣滋味,总是让人难以自拔。其实人的味蕾只能品出酸、甜、苦、咸、鲜,麻辣中的”辣”实际是由辣椒素产生的一种灼痛感;而麻辣中的“麻”则是一种触觉,准确来说是一种频率为50赫兹的震颤。当“辣”在你的舌间燃起一把熊熊烈火,“麻”则在一旁制造些许镇静,正是如此”阴阳调和“一般的巧妙搭配,让你对麻辣风味的美食无法抗拒。所以,除了咖啡和酒,麻辣食品也是一门让人上瘾的好生意。 在一次聚会上,赵耀尝到了一位英国朋友用青花椒油点缀的奶酪意面,他意识到:原来老家重庆的花椒油不仅可以在自家厨房拌黄瓜, 还拥有走上世界人民餐桌的潜力。于是,赵耀离开了在世界银行作为能源专家的全职工作,用自己的积蓄在美国创建了花椒油品牌50Hertz Tingly Foods。川味如此多椒,或许也能引世界吃货竞折腰?美国消费者对花椒带来的这种新奇口感也的确来者不拒,他们常常给赵耀写信,分享自己是如何把花椒油浇在披萨、爆米花和冰激淋里。这给了赵耀很大的正反馈,他也坚信自己并非调味品供应商,他创办的是一家“感官公司”… The Spice That Throws A Party in Your Mouth, with Yao Zhao We never get tired of foods that give us a funny feeling. Like mustard that sends a shockwave through our skull. Like carbonated drinks with a playful fizz in every sip. It’s not necessarily the flavor that sets us on fire; it’s the sensation that does the magic. For those in the food industry, creating a sparkling sensory experience would be key to crafting a killer product. This is precisely what inspired Yao to start 50Hertz, a brand featuring the unique taste of Sichuan Pepper. Don’t mistake it for the fiery red chili pepper you typically see in a Sichuan dish; it’s the small round berry that hides in the plate. In this episode, Lulu talks with Yao Zhao, the founder of 50Hertz Tingly Foods. They explore what makes Sichuan pepper special, how well it has been received in the US market, and how it can make mealtime more exciting. You’ll hear about: * What was the founder’s ‘aha moment’? * What’s the science behind Sichuan pepper's buzz? * How did Yao get his early customers? * How did Yao get customers to repurchase? * What goes with Sichuan Pepper oil?

EP16 此亚裔非彼亚裔:冲金的《瞬息全宇宙》和它的后继者

第95届奥斯卡开奖在即,由亚裔领衔主演的《瞬息全宇宙》喜提十一项提名成为夺金热门,其主演杨紫琼也凭借此片成为奥斯卡历史上首位获得最佳女主角提名的华裔演员。影片讲述了一个正在遭遇中年危机的美国亚裔女性,突然被委以拯救世界的重任,并通过在不同宇宙间切换,体验了大厨、武打明星、石头等多种人生。虽然女主的设定仍未摆脱对老一代华裔的刻板印象,比如:经营洗衣店、说话中英夹杂、在子女面前摇身成为“虎妈”,但电影天马行空、脑洞大开的风格还是给亚裔叙事带来了诸多想象。 从2018年上映、全亚裔阵容的《摘金奇缘》起,荧屏上的亚裔就开始撕掉”人均李小龙“、温良恭谦让、聪明勤奋但缺乏个性等标签;同时,亚裔演员也逐渐从镜头边缘走向类型片和实验性电影的台中央:比如在同年上映的“桌面电影”《网络谜踪》里,亚裔不再被作为猎奇对象,他们只不过是拥有不寻常经历的普通人;主演赵约翰(John Cho)也凭借此片成为了好莱坞的亚裔之光。 除了以上这些话题电影,还有很多同样心怀理想和创意的亚裔影人在试图打破常规,他们创作时会遇到怎样的迷茫?他们希望讲出怎样的亚裔故事、塑造怎样的亚裔形象?本期嘉宾是导演王早和制片人Joyce Liu-Countryman,他们刚刚拍摄完一部围绕亚裔移民家庭的微电影,影片女主赵牡丹(Margaret Cho)是美国著名韩裔脱口秀演员,也是王早少年时期的”女神“,王早当年就是被她极具个人特色的喜剧风格所鼓舞,决心要为多元化的亚裔叙事贡献自己的力量。王早和Joyce也是《瞬息全宇宙》的粉丝,在他们眼中:好的电影无关肤色,只有当观众忘记这是一部以亚裔为主角的电影,只是单纯的沉浸在影片的精彩之中,这才算亚裔电影真正出圈了吧。 Not Your Average Asian Americans, with the Filmmakers of Unconditional When the thirteen-year-old Zao first saw Margaret Cho’s standup comedy on TV, he was intrigued by her loud and unapologetic persona and wished to see more not-your-average Asians on stage and screen. Later, Zao became a filmmaker himself and met Joyce, a producer who also aspires to debunk the model minority myth by creating more “irreverent” Asian characters. The two hit it off and went on making a proof-of-concept film to promote the idea. Joyce even brought Margaret on the cast and Zao was thrilled to work with his idol. Though the story is about an Asian American family, Zao and Joyce don’t think it’s ethnicity-based. It intends to address something universal, with the Asian idiosyncrasies being the cherry on the cake. And they’ve been working very hard to turn the short film into a full-length one… In this episode, Lulu talks with Zao Wang (ins @zaowangfilm) and Joyce Liu-Countryman (ins @joyceliucountryman), the director and producer of the film Unconditional: A Family Guide to Hunting. They share their takes on breaking Asian stereotypes in the media. You’ll hear about: * What’s their film about? * How to get a famous actress in your film * Why is funding for a film important? * How did Daniels make Everything Everywhere All At Once with Adobe? * Why do we love Everything Everywhere All At Once?

EP15 99%美国学生都难以忘怀的广告 / 比ChatGPT更早的AI秘书

全球最大的视频网站YouTube上有这样一则“洗脑”广告,很多学生党都能将其全文背诵:“Writings not that easy, but Grammarly can help. This sentence is grammatically correct but its wordy and hard to read…” Grammarly是一款在线智能写作助手,它不但能扫清文章中的拼写和语法错误,还能根据文章的目标受众调整行文风格和语气。试想一下:当某同学论文写到崩溃,正想在YouTube上刷个视频换换脑子,却又被Grammarly的广告嘲笑了写作水平… 同为YouTube用户,这广告在我耳边“余音绕梁”了有小十年,甚至在我大学毕业后YouTube依然坚持给我推送。起初我强烈怀疑:莫非是瞧不起我们这些母语非英语的留学生?但我渐渐发现:Grammaly早就不只“圈粉”于学校和学术界,而是通过推出更多个性化的功能,吸引更多与文字打交道的人入坑;而它也逐步从一款语法检查工具转变成提升沟通效率的生产力工具。 本期嘉宾是Grammarly的产品营销经理Zachary。从沃顿商学院毕业后,Zachary带着对沟通表达和前沿科技的浓厚兴趣,果断加入了Grammarly这样一家用人工智能提升文字生产力的独角兽公司。我请Zachary谈了谈Grammarly在过去十年里的功能升级、产品转型和营销策略。此次聊天中我收获了三个关于关于Grammarly的冷知识: 1. Grammarly这样一款英文写作助手竟是由几个母语非英语的乌克兰人开发的。 2. 过去三年办公模式的转变,不光利好Zoom这类视频会议软件,也助推了Grammarly的增长。这背后是什么逻辑? 3. 不是只有那些觉得自己英语不够灵光的人在使用Grammarly;很多以英语为母语的人,哪怕对自己的写作水平再自信,也有依赖Grammarly的场景。 此外我们还聊到了像ChatGPT这样的生成式人工智能模型对Grammarly这种文字生产类产品的潜在冲击。而至于Grammarly在社交网络上的“病毒式”营销,在Zachary这样的产品营销人士看来:管他洗不洗脑,管用就好! Next time you proofread your writing, watch out for timidity — anything that sounds vague, indirect or hesitant unless you truly mean it. It's not just the grammar that matters, but the tone. As much of our communications have gone digital across text, emails and shared docs, it’s even more crucial to know how to add sparkle to what we write so that the readers would jump up and implement what we suggest. This also raises the bar for online writing assistants —besides catching typos, those smart ones can even help tweak the tone of our writing, depending on whether we’d like to sound personable or professional. In this episode, Lulu talks with Zachary, a perpetual creator / product marketing manager @Grammarly who shares how Grammarly has gone beyond fixing college essays and turned to revamping everyone’s everyday writing. As generative AI like ChatGPT takes the stage, could productivity tools like Grammarly still find their niche? You’ll hear about: * How could Grammarly attract two diametrically opposed groups of users? * What is inbound and outbound marketing? * How to avoid being a "solution in search of a problem"? * Why should marketers diversity their digital ad spend?

EP14 对话LinkedIn设计师:美妙的办公室装修,能让人爱上上班吗?

如今,越来越多的公司开始“卷”办公室的装修了:那些或大气或优雅的室内装潢不但彰显了企业的实力与理念,也把自家员工和慕名而来的求职者拿捏得死死的:毕竟上班族的一生大概有1/3的时间都在办公室里度过,办公室堪称他们的第二个家,谁不想住的好一些?有些公司甚至还给员工配备了健身房、按摩椅、冥想室、狗狗日托、屋顶花园…但即使条件再诱人,近几年的办公室”上座率”却在持续走低:因为很多人早被「远程办公」或「混合办公」模式“惯”坏了 。 本期嘉宾是来自互联网大厂领英(LinkedIn)的室内设计经理Cherish。从硅谷的超大园区,到纽约的摩天大楼,她的团队如何为公司不同地区的不同分部量身打造融合当地特色的办公环境?在后疫情时代,办公室又需要做出怎样的改变和革新来吸引员工回到这些精心铺陈的空间里? (封面图为LinkedIn位于纽约帝国大厦27楼的图书馆。) Could A Cooler Office Win Remote Workers Back, with Cherish Rosas One of those cool perks at tech companies is their joyful office space. Open floor plans, game rooms, and even a rooftop garden to relax in. It’s not just for fun; it’s about branding, attracting top talents and increasing productivity. Even though the pandemic has receded, these stylish spaces are often half empty since few can resist the comforts of working remotely. Are companies still interested in upgrading their physical offices? Is it still the staple of business? What does it take to attract people back? In this episode, Lulu talks with Cherish Rosas, a Global Design Manager Lead @LinkedIn who has been elevating workplace experience across many LinkedIn campuses, from New York’s high-rises to Silicon Valley’s sprawling estates. How does her team add regional flavors to different office locations? What’s her visions of post-pandemic workplaces? You’ll hear about: * How did LinkedIn build its offices? * What cool things do LinkedIn’s offices have? * What is inclusive design and how do we create an inclusive workplace? * As hybrid work becomes the new normal, do companies still think office space is a good investment?

EP13 漫画界最有名的狗,和他童心未泯的主人

如果你喜欢酒,你多半听说过位于美国加州的纳帕县,那里以出产顶级葡萄酒而闻名。纳帕县隔壁的另一“葡萄酒之乡”索诺玛县,名气上虽略逊一筹,其面积却是纳帕县的两倍;除此之外,索诺玛县还拥有一座吸引着全世界漫迷的博物馆。 这座博物馆是为创造了漫画界最有名的狗狗——史努比的漫画家查尔斯·舒尔茨修建的。在这里,你不光能找到最多最全的史努比漫画及其周边,还能亲临舒尔茨先生当年每天都光顾的咖啡馆,在他的专属餐桌前体会这位伟大漫画家五十年来如一日的创作心境,顺道点一份与他老人家同款的金枪鱼沙拉三明治,逛一逛他给当地小朋友修建的溜冰场。 我恰好在舒尔茨先生的百年诞辰之际拜访了这间博物馆,并有幸联系到了博物馆的首席策展人Benjamin,请他聊一聊:他是怎么找到这样一份令无数漫迷羡慕嫉妒恨的工作?博物馆又如何为舒尔茨先生庆生?我们为什么这么爱史努比?舒尔茨先生又是如何创作出了这样一个风靡全球的长青IP? When Charles M. Schulz, the creator of Peanuts comic strips, first learned a museum would be built for him, he wasn’t really up for it. Thankfully, he was later convinced it would be a huge treat for his fans to see his original drawings up close (and it truly is!) At Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center located in Santa Rosa, California, one could either indulge his comics craving, or stop by the cafe table where Schulz had been seated for 4 decades, eating his go-to tuna salad sandwich while conceiving the strip of the day. On the 100th anniversary of Schulz's birth, Lulu talks to Benjamin Clark (Twitter: @BLClark), a curator at Charles M. Schulz Museum / a book writer who authors "Charles M. Schulz: The Art and Life of the Peanuts Creator in 100 Objects". Like Schulz, Benjamin is also a Midwesterner who's got a great sense of art and humor. You’ll hear about: * How the museum celebrates the centennial * What’s the curator’s favorite object from the collection? * What are some interesting facts about Charles M. Schulz? * Why is the Peanuts gang still poplar after so many years?

EP12 除了厨子,还有哪些适合吃货的职业?

除了厨子,还有哪些适合吃货的职业? From Foodie to Phoode: My Delicious Career, with Marta Fowlie Marta出生于波兰,在上个世纪末移民到美国,开始了她在“世界创意之都”洛杉矶的生活。从那之后,她一直与「食物」打交道。热爱美食和烹饪的她,通过在博客上分享菜谱获得了媒体和品牌方的关注,由此进入食品创意行业。她为美食杂志和高端酒店拍摄宣传照,为食品品牌做咨询,并结识了许多像她一样借由「食物」表达想象力的艺术家。外卖App上那些诱惑人下单的菜品图,半夜逼人去煮宵夜的美食视频,影视作品里才得以一见的宫廷宴席,都是他们的作品。 从业多年,Marta认为:食品创意行业需要一个快速匹配人才与需求的平台。于是她在2017年创建了在线市集Phoode,名字的灵感源自"Photography"(摄影)和 "Foodie"(吃货)两个单词。艺术家可以在Phoode上展示和出售不限于摄影的视觉服务,商家和品牌则可以招贤纳士、为其产品征集营销创意。 本期节目中,Marta谈到了食品创意行业的兴起 、社交媒体对其的冲击,以及其中一些小众但有趣的职业,如食品广告的配音、手模和嘴模等。被食物环绕的工作似乎很美妙,但它们真如我们想象的那么轻松吗?广告里那些让人垂涎三尺的食物究竟是实拍,还是另有不能说的秘密?为什么中餐是Marta眼中最难拍的菜品? Marta创建的平台:https://phoode.com/ Marta的个人网站:https://foodpolka.com/ If there’s one thing that all human beings love, it's probably food. It nourishes our body, mind, and soul. For some, food is about desire, pleasure or taste. For others, it’s a creative outlet, and they even translate this passion into a career. Not necessarily a cook; there are many other niches in the market — food photography, recipe design, food styling and the list goes on. You may not realize it, but their work is everywhere — from the crispy-skinned, well-seasoned chicken wings on your food delivery app, to the medieval banquets or 19th-century dinner parties you see on the silver screen. Besides all the sweet perks, working with food is not always glamorous: it also calls for endurance, patience, and ability to work under pressure. In this episode, Lulu talks with Marta Fowlie, a LA-based food-focused content producer who builds an online marketplace — Phoode to helps thousands of talents like her seek new clients. Ready to cook up something creative with her? You’ll hear about: * How large is the food-focused creative economy, and what are the key drivers of its growth? * Which niches are trending? * How to stay competitive in the market? * A food photographer reveals her most challenging shots Music credits Daystar - You know better than I Daystar - Alcohol-Free (instrumental ver.) 小宇宙/喜马拉雅/网易云音乐 @斜杠青年研究所/@心心念的 Apple Podcasts/Spotify @Dedicated (搜索“dedicated lulu”更容易找到呦)

EP11 药企培训师:为新药研发“续命”的人

药企培训师:为新药研发“续命”的人 Scientists Help Us Learn, Who Helps Scientist Learn, with Serene Yu 提到辉瑞、阿斯利康,你可能最先想到它们的新冠疫苗。但其实这些药企里还上演着许多其他领域的研究:比如肿瘤、心血管病、罕见病…疫情后,不少新药的研发不但要给新冠让路,还面临着病人入组难、药物配送和随访中断等挑战。研发新药就像跑马拉松,是一项长期工程,谁又能在一旁为科研人员加油呢?本期嘉宾是来自阿斯利康的企业培训师Serene,她将讲述:承载着万千期待的药企如何激发其研发团队的潜能,加速新药的诞生。 罕见病知多少 * 据世界卫生组织估计,全球每15人中就有1人正受到罕见病的影响。 * 受罕见病影响的人数比受癌症和艾滋病的总人数还要多。 * 罕见病患者中有一半是儿童,每10个罕见病患儿中有3个活不过5岁。 * 80%的罕见病是遗传性疾病。 * 罕见病平均确诊时间为6到8年。 * 95%的罕见病还尚未有经美国食品药品管理局(FDA)批准的治疗药物。 This is the stereotype we have of pharmaceutical scientists: smart, isolated workaholic who spend most of their day in a laboratory. They have a clear roadmap for drug discovery. They are close to offering the world a new promising cure. In fact, scientists are also employees like you and me. They can feel stuck at work or struggle to collaborate. Besides studying compounds and organisms, they also seek to advance their career and step into leadership. That’s how the Learning & Development department (L&D) comes into play. Scientists help us learn and L&D help scientists learn. In this episode, Lulu talks with Serene Yu, a L&D professional @AstraZeneca/life-long+life-wide learner/Christian/wife/idealist with a to-do list/not-quite Bostonian, who aspires to bring the joy of learning back to adulthood. To date, her team has delivered five innovative medicines approved for the treatment of seven rare diseases. You’ll hear about: * What is a rare disease? * If rare diseases are so rare, why do they matter? * How does L&D help pharmaceutical professionals navigate the drug discovery odyssey?

职业咨询:谁不想有一顶霍格沃茨分院帽?Career Counseling: Who Doesn’t Want a Hogwarts Sorting Hat, with Jason Tran 看过《哈利·波特》的人一定记得,霍格沃茨魔法学校有一顶神奇的分院帽:它能洞悉每个学生的禀赋和特质,从而将他们分到最适合的学院;分院帽也会最大程度地尊重个人意愿,比如虽然它看到了哈利的斯莱特林天分,但斯莱特林并非哈利的心之所向,于是分院帽还是把他分到了格兰芬多,这才有了接下来的故事… 假如我们在为选专业、行业、雇主时感到迷茫无助时,也有这样一顶魔法帽,或者像魔法帽一样有权威、经验、智慧的人为我们指明方向,那该多好!其实,职业咨询师就可以扮演这种角色,很多高校也都配有此类师资。 本期嘉宾Jason是一位有着十年经验高校职业咨询师,他分别在美国加州大学洛杉矶分校(UCLA)、洛约拉马利蒙特大学(LMU)、南加州大学(USC)就职。而Jason自己的咨询生涯,也是从他本科的一次职业咨询开始的…我们聊了聊: * 高校职业咨询师的工作日常 * 如何看待风靡职场圈的MBTI性格测试 * 如何跻身未来最有前景的领域 * 选择面包,还是追逐梦想? Ever since the Hogwarts Sorting Hat wisely placed Harry Porter into Gryffindor, we’ve all dreamed of a magic hat that can point us to the right career. The popular MBTI personality test sounds like one close thing, but if you’d like something more interactive - meet a career counselor! Not only have career counselors seen countless applicants with similar background, but they’ve also maintained close connections with employers you might be interested in. They also keep close watch on market trends and labor statistics. Whoever you talk to, career exploration is always about reflecting on yourself. It’s the power of introspection that drives the insights and fuels the motivation to make moves. As Dumbledore puts it, “It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.” In this episode, you’ll hear from a career counselor with 10-year experience on choosing and building a career. In this episode, Lulu talks with Jason Tran, an Associate Director/Career Strategist at USC Marshall School of Business. He also served as a University Advisor at the Loyola Marymount University (LMU) Academic Resource Center, and a Career Counselor at the UCLA Career Center. Outside counseling, he is a hardcore Los Angeles Lakers fan who enjoys meditating, reading, watching Marvel superhero movies, the beach, and exploring different types of cuisine. You’ll hear about: * What a day in the life of a career counselor looks like * Can personality tests help us pick the right career? * The fastest-growing jobs of the next decade * Should we keep a stable job or pursue what we love?
