It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC.

Good morning again, everyone.

Now we'll wrap up the series of conversations we've been having about making a good living without a college degree.

We're ending with an

advice segment. We've talked about alternative pathways into work, about how some employers are

starting to embrace skills-based hiring, not necessarily based on what degree you have, and about

how state and city programs are trying in other ways to open more doors for so-called

stars, the acronym for workers skilled through alternative routes. Today, advice. We invite

your calls for a career counselor, especially if you don't have a four-year degree or your degree

is kind of run out of usefulness in the career

building sense. We did one of our segments in this series explicitly about that for mid-career people.

212-433 WNYC, 212, 433-9692. Call or text a question. For example, maybe somebody wants to know what it takes to stand out

in today's labor market if you don't have a four-year degree or how you navigate a hiring process,

which is shaped by AI algorithms and other things that might screen you out without a college degree before you even get to

make an impression or any other question for Louisa Tatum, Career Services Manager at the New York

Public Library. She offers one-on-one career coaching to job seekers across the city. Yes,

the public library has that service.

And now she'll be taking your calls to 212-433-9692.

Louisa, thanks for coming on and offering your services for this.

Welcome back to WNYC.

Thank you so much for having me, Brian.

It is a pleasure to be here.
