Taylor Desseyn argues that staying busy doesn't mean you're making progress in your job search. He points to work at Torque with teammates Brianna and Jason on tools that prioritize human interaction over activity metrics, saying this approach leads to real career success.

We think activity is productivity, and that is not the case. Not all activity equals productivity, right? And so I beg you right now, the more human you can get— and again, this is why I'm so passionate about what we're going to build at Torque with Brianna and Jason, the rest of the team— we want to be as human with you as possible, because the more human you can get and the more you can get out from the bits and bytes of things, the more successful you're going to be in your career and your job search.
