jmartin+FollowThis CEO Ditched Medicine for a Fruit Snack EmpireImagine going to med school, then tossing it all to sell fruit bars! That’s what Lior Lewensztain did—now his company rakes in $100M a year. He says Gen Z’s obsession with secure healthcare jobs is understandable, but real success comes from effort and adaptability, not just degrees. When hiring, he skips the education section and looks for people who can think on their feet. Maybe it’s time to rethink what ‘job security’ really means? #JobCareer #CareerSwitch #GenZ10Share

If you’re tired of job board doomscrolling, maybe it’s time to think outside the cubicle! #Business #CareerSwitch #TradeSchool10Share

Who knew your next big career move could involve cheese, not code? #Business #LocalBusiness #CareerSwitch00Share
