Of the 24 careers podcasts listed here we could read 24 public feeds on 26 August 2026, and 10 of those (42%) publish visible evidence of booking outside guests. The evidence is the show's own feed: a named guest in a recent episode title, or the show describing itself as an interview show. We count what is checkable rather than what a directory claims, so a show with no marker is not one we say never books guests, only one you would be pitching blind. How to Be Awesome at Your Job, Career Sessions and Clock In with Emily Durham are among them. 5 of the 24 had published nothing for roughly six months when we read them, which is worth checking before you spend a pitch on one.
18 of the 24 careers shows with a readable feed had published an episode within 90 days of the day we read that feed, by 23 August 2026. The newest episode in the niche was dated 21 Aug 2026. The careers podcast directory lists the date for every one of them, so a guest can check the claim before spending a pitch on a show that has gone quiet.
Pick shows whose audience matches your expertise, then send a short, specific pitch that names the episode you would help create. On Let's Make A Podcast you can build a free one-sheet, browse careers shows, and get matched with hosts by fit instead of cold-emailing blindly.
Hosts want inside knowledge on hiring, growth, or a specific career path listeners are chasing. The more concrete and audience-ready your angle is, the easier it is for a host to say yes and book you.
We list 24 active careers shows compiled from public podcast directories, including The $100 MBA Show and How to Be Awesome at Your Job. The listings are unclaimed and not affiliated with Let's Make A Podcast, so use them for research, then pitch through the marketplace to reach hosts who are actively looking for guests.
Usually not. Most guests come on for the audience, authority, and links back to their work rather than a fee, though some larger shows and sponsored placements are exceptions. Our guide on whether podcast guests get paid covers how to think about it.
Let's Make A Podcast gives you a shareable one-sheet and fit-first matching so the right shows can find you, and you can pitch the ones you want. Free while we’re in early access.
