I’m hosting a free training tomorrow (Wed, 11/17 @ 7p ET) for ambitious Black women. I know it's hard and I know what we face, but if you're ready to find the role for you in 2021 or 2022, join me! https://t.co/Tj0hI1szb5 Please RT (share) & QT (RSVP)! And hit the poll! (10/10)

Black women, here's a message from me to you:

That company's inability to see just how much value, impact, and power you bring to the table isn't a you problem. Something is wrong with them, not you. (9/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

#5: Psychological impact of all the stats.

While it's important for us to know what we're up against, constantly being fed the disparities in pay, employment, and leadership for Black women can take a mental toll on us. (8/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

#4: Less likely to be considered for senior-level roles. Black women are consistently underleveled in the job search process, even though we're more than qualified. As the roles get more senior, we suddenly become more "risky." (7/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

#3: Having to fight to receive actionable feedback.

Though feedback is critical when job searching, Black women are least likely to receive it. Often it's b/c companies have nothing to share other than vague nonsense about not being a good "fit", nothing about skills. (6/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

#2: Preparing for tone policing.

Black women often don't have the luxury of showing up as our authentic selves in interviews. We must think about how words, facial expressions, and vocal pitch are perceived. Interviews force us to keep our code switching skills on point. (5/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

#1: Making sure our resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile doesn't make us seem "too" Black.

Bias is real. And whether it's unconscious or not, many of us have to consider how bias towards Black women will impact our ability to even make it to the phone screen. (4/10)

[Dorianne St Fleur @doriannestfleur]

I've coached Black women on job search strategy for the past five (5) years, as well as navigated my own searches. Here is a list of the top five (5) things Black women have to deal with while job searching: (3/10)
