When a company posts a job, think of it as a pain point…that’s a problem that the company needs solved.
When you’re applying, you’re presenting yourself as the solution to that pain point. Your resume is a marketing document. Speak to *that* job, not just your overall history.
I’m sick of people dismissing remote work as “pretending to work” or “working in your pjs.” How about “not wasting valuable hours of your life commuting” or “being a part of your kids’ lives.”
Normalize leaving your job without finding a new one first if it’s affecting your mental health.
I know not everyone is in a position to up and leave, but I hate that it’s seen as a red flag if you leave a job without a new one lined up. It should be applauded, not stigmatized.
A6: You can have influence without authority. Titles don’t make you a leader. Speak up when you observe behavior operating outside your values. Recognize and reward those who exhibit behavior you want to see more of. Don’t reward toxic producers. Make kindness safe #LeadersChat

Interviewer- it says here on your resume, from 2010-2011 you “crushed it.”
Candidate- That’s actually an old resume. It should also read that I crushed it from 2013-Present.
