About this listen

Recession-Proof Graduate is a wildly popular career guide that's been downloaded over 150,000 times. This audiobook is frequently shared among students, teachers, parents, counselors, freelancers, and entrepreneurs. It's been integrated in the coursework at a number of universities, given away as a graduation gift, and translated to Italian.

I struggled to find meaningful work - or any work - after getting out of school. I graduated in 2008 - during the worst economy in 80 years - and spent my days spamming my resume to hundreds of companies I didn’t want to work for…and never heard back. It was exhausting. When I changed my strategy, I landed a handful of dream gigs, got to work with amazing people like Tim Ferriss and Ramit Sethi, and found myself turning down multiple paid job offers. Best of all, I was getting paid to work on projects that made me come alive. It was a far cry from the days of begging for soul-crushing work. People kept asking how I did it, so I wrote this free guide on how to use free work to land your dream job.

Critic reviews

“What do Seth Godin, Tucker Max, Ramit Sethi and Tim Ferriss have in common? All of them are NY Times Best Selling authors, have ginormous followings, and are media magnets. Most of us already knew this about them. The one thing they have in common that most do not know is at some point in their careers they all had a level of support from Charlie Hoehn.” - Lewis Howes, author of the #1 LinkedIn Book, Founder of Sports Executives Association“Charlie is one of the most talented marketers and entrepreneurs I’ve ever worked with. A true gem. I highly recommend him.” (Ramit Sethi, New York Times best-selling author of ‘I Will Teach You to Be Rich’)

I think this is outdated already and common sense.

I think this is outdated already and common sense. For a free book, I still would not recommend it.

Thought out loud

I am very grateful to the author for sharing this story and his new ways of beating the unemployment and unsatisfactory employment. It made me wonder if there was something I could do too and there could be more to my life than an ordinary 9-5PM job.
Would definitely recommend to others and listen to it again!

Brilliantly Presented Expert Knowledge

I loved the book right from the beginning. Just by looking at the title, you could almost feel the transformation the book brings. I listened to it while driving and it’s one of the best audio book experiences I have ever had.
The information is concrete and the advice laid out makes sense and you can almost feel the reward even before you try it. It is direct and simple but has all the ingredients to make you a real recession proof person.
Charlie Hoehn is the real deal. Thank you Charlie.

Makes you realise

Going into a line of work or a new line of work is alot easier with experience via working for free, he emphasizes how it enables you to build a relationship whereas applying for a job employers know what you aren saying to them is a sales pitch. Great listen.

Very Inspirational

I really wish all school, college and university levers could have the opportunity to lister to this. A very logical, but sideways look at how to achieve your goals in job hunting.

In fact, I was lucky enough that my dad holds the belief that if you deliver exceptional work for free to start with and prove yourself, a paid job can come as a result. And my first job started as full-time hours, for free, that lead to my first paid, and more importantly, enjoyable job after 3 months.

Depending on your job preference

I found this contained good advice if you want to be in a web, virtual or long distance job. If you don't want to be in one of those types of jobs, this was pretty useless.
