the job market is cooked (again) 🍳


G’day G’day friends,

Getting employed is crazy hard right now.

I’ve heard from recruiters that this is the worst job market they have ever seen.

Not just in 2025, but in decades.

Some are even saying that this market is worse than Global Financial Crisis in 2008.

Corporate mangers, directors and executives are finding it hard to get jobs.

These are people with decades of experience.

But can’t even get a second interview.

Or they get pass the interviews and then get completely ghosted.

And most of them are applying for more junior roles with a pay cut.

That’s wild.

Imagine spending decades accumulating skills only to be passed over for 20 years younger or being entirely replaced by AI.

From a young age, I always knew I couldn’t rely 100% on a 9-5 job.

Something about my immigrant mentality taught me to create my own future.

When I worked a 9-5 job, I was always working on a side hustle.

I never wanted to have my income come from one place that I didn’t own.

With the Internet, it’s now possible.

You can create an entire business by:

  • Reselling your existing skillset to another business.
  • Build a six-figure solo consulting or coaching with 4-5 clients.
  • Operate at over 90% profit margins because you have no costs.

You've got everything you need to get started tomorrow.

The job market is broken.

Stop waiting around for it to be fixed.

Your employers see you like a number on a spreadsheet.

You’ll be gone once the maths doesn’t add up.

Don’t be a 50 year old fully reliant on another adult for your entire livelihood.

But if you’re ready to take control of your own future, START HERE.​

Let’s Launch Together,

Michael ‘take control of your destiny’ Lim.
