Job Hopping with Fexingo · 2026-07-02 · 6 min
Lucas and Luna explore a fresh angle for job hoppers: keeping a career journal. Lucas opens with the stat that the average tenure for workers under 30 is just 2.3 years, making it hard to remember details from each role. He shares his own practice of writing a 'Career Journal' entry after every job - a one-page, time-stamped note capturing what he actually did, key wins, and who he worked with. Luna jumps in with the idea that it helps in interviews, especially for behavioural questions like 'Tell me about a time you led a project.' Lucas warns that memory fades after 6 months, which can cost you job offers. They discuss how the journal also helps in writing cover letters, updating LinkedIn, and preparing for performance reviews in a new role. Luna shares a listener story: a graphic designer used her journal to win a freelance contract 2 years after leaving a job. The episode closes with Lucas reflecting on how the journal becomes a 'career autobiography' and a tool for self-awareness. Includes a brief, natural donation segment tied to the value of the episode.
