Today I interview Alek Halverson, a good friend of mine for years. Ever since he was a kid, he wanted to be on the radio. In this short interview, we cover how he got his first job running a daily radio show by age 19 with no degree and almost no professional experience.
There are a few funny things going on here:
First, we used Alek’s equipment, so even though I’m “hosting” the podcast, it sounds like I’m calling in to his radio show.
Second, there’s some quiet background music from a neighboring radio show, so you can jam out to the Cars as we’re talking (hopefully it’s not too distracting).
Topics we discuss:
Should you drop out of college?
Tips for learning on the job without much experience
The driving force behind building a career from scratch
How Alek handles screwing up on the air
What it’s like being the youngest person in a professional setting
Overall, it’s a quick interview, and you’ll find tons of valuable advice for how to approach early career building. Enjoy
