Episode 44 of The First Job Podcast with Fexingo. Hosts Lucas and Luna talk about how to use your first job as a deliberate stepping stone rather than just a place to collect a paycheck. They focus on the concept of 'career capital' — the skills, relationships, and reputation you build in your first role — and break down a framework from Cal Newport's book 'So Good They Can't Ignore You.' Lucas shares a specific example: a new grad who took a data-entry job at a logistics firm and turned it into a supply-chain analyst role by systematically learning SQL and Python on the side, then volunteering for projects. Luna pushes back with a real concern: what if you're in a toxic culture where there's no room to grow? They discuss when to invest in building capital and when to cut your losses. No vague advice — just a practical lens for making your first job work for your long-term goals.
