Job searching is debilitating. COVID has only exacerbated an already broken system. When I pivoted to law in 2017 after a long career in entertainment, PR, and nonprofit, I was shocked by how different and difficult the landscape was. I mistakenly believed that being qualified and having the required skills was enough to land a job. When that job didn’t come to fruition, I set out to create a rewarding career on my own terms, rather than settling for less or trying to fit in.

In this conversation, I want you to walk away with:

  • Ways to determine your strengths based on your personality and what types of roles fit those strengths
  • Identify exactly what kind of companies you want to work for
  • Actions to take for improving the interview process
  • Ideas for networking, informational interviews, and getting help from your tribe
