ADHD Job Search Tips: Turn FastBraiin into Your Edge

in Dr. Jim's FastBraiin

If traditional job advice makes your ADHD glaze over, you’ll love this conversation. FastBraiin Founder Dr. Jim Poole joins David Mantica to flip the script: you’re not “broken”—you’re FastBraiin. In 30 crisp minutes, they show how to turn rapid-fire thinking into a job-search edge, especially in a market that’s shifting under our feet.

Why watch

  • Reframe fast: Stop seeing ADHD as a deficit; start using it as your advantage—confidence first, tactics second.

  • Aim with interest: Don’t blast 100 applications. Narrow to the 5–10 roles that actually light you up (that’s where longevity and performance live).

  • Energy > time: Build your day around energy management, not 8–5 blocks—short sprints, real recovery, no doom-scrolling.

  • Find your people: Mentors and coaches who give honest feedback can change your runway—and your results.

  • Bridge the gap: Use gigs to extend runway, test interests, and sometimes discover the business you were meant to build.

  • Own your wins: “Monster-truck voice” your accomplishments—specific, concrete examples beat vague promises every time.

  • The hare, not the tortoise: You’re built for speed. Learn the systems to keep you moving and you’ll win far more races than you lose.

Teaser moments

  • The origin of “FastBraiin” and why teens (and adults) needed a new story about ADHD.
