She Got The Job, Then Ran Away?!

Building a business can't be done alone and it should be easy to find and employ talent right? In this episode, we look at why this is not that easy!

In Episode 4 we look at finding the right talent for your business. We think it is an important conversation because not only do a lot of startups fumble when it comes to finding the right talent but at the same time, there are a lot of challenges with the kind of "talent" one finds out there.

The youth unemployment rate in South Africa is stupidly high. It's like 66% which for us is a crazy high stat. It shows that the biggest problem in our country is the lack of jobs right? But why is that a problem in the first place?

Why is that a problem when there are startups such as ourselves that are wanting to find talent, wanting to employ people and give people the opportunity to do better for themselves?

Why is it a struggle? Why are we so unemployed? What's going on?

About the Podcast

Vibing With Vibe
Entrepreneurship, business, creative, advertising, marketing and life!
As a young, dynamic and multi-faceted creative agency nestled in the heart of Johannesburg South Africa, Vibing With Vibe is a space that engages people to think about themselves in ways that help them build their own unique journeys of success. 

Through documenting our own practical work of building a brand and business we want to bravely show others that it is not only possible but critical to think, engage and share with deliberate intention.

As young black South Africans, we explore the notion of whether it is possible to build a business that raises the collective consciousness of those who come in contact with it for the better as well as still being ambitious and driven to succeed.

Vibing With Vibe is not only a space where we seek to explore the practical challenges faced by those trying to build businesses in a developing economy but also the internal mental and emotional shifts that need to take place to do so in a way that is sustainable and authentic.

We want to challenge both the historical and current stereotypes of what it means to be successful and how to get there and ultimately replace these with ones that place humility, care, honesty and self-awareness at the core of how we approach our work and interact within the world.
