Our new way to search for purposeful work

Issue 832, Mon 23 February, 2026

Dear Escapees,

You know that friend heading into a big interview, already talking themselves out of it? You'd stop them mid-sentence. You'd remind them exactly why they're brilliant.

And then someone asks you to do the same for yourself. Suddenly you can't find the words.

We get it. It's hard enough at the best of times. And right now, with applications disappearing into silence and interviews that go nowhere, backing yourself takes real effort.

Here's what we keep seeing though: the applications that cut through aren't the most polished. They're the most human.

The employers worth working for aren't scanning for buzzwords. They want to know who you actually are. Your application is your chance to show them, and nobody else can replicate that.

So before you hit send this week, ask yourself: does this sound like me? Not a safer, vaguer version. Actually me.

Take a look at this week's top 10 below, roles from companies who care about who you are, not just what your CV says.

Happy Escaping!
