Description

A deep dive into our journey to find the dream job!

My name is Jason Fisch. I am a Strategy Analyst at Accenture. How Did I Get Here? is my podcast where I interview executives and entrepreneurs with awesome jobs and potentially unconventional career paths.

As a recent college graduate, I have noticed that many of my peers may know what their interests are, but not what they want to do as a career. Additionally, many college students and young professionals are not aware of all the awesome jobs available to them!
