Can connections get you a job? Two thirds of Aussies believe ‘it’s not what you know, it’s who you know’. Jamie Hyneman of Mythbusters fame test drives this theory with racing driver Courtney Prince.
It’s pedal to the metal as Jamie creates the ultimate crash course for the role of courier. With speed jumps, swerves and billowing smoke, this is no easy ride.
Plus, Courtney is up against an opponent with all the right connections: Jethro Mclean. He works at the Jamie Hyneman Centre - and he’s friends with Jamie to boot.
So can ‘what you know’ beat ‘who you know’ in this race to the job? Watch the full experiment above to find out.
In reality, connections aren't everything, either - only 9% of employers made their most recent placement through word-of-mouth*
So you might be a match for more jobs than you think. With better job matches than ever before, there’s no secret to finding the right job. Why not search SEEK today?
