Can you give us some genuine career advice?

Fuck what your parents want you to do

Don’t be loyal to a company because they won’t be loyal to you.

Never stop networking, that’s how you get opportunities

Don’t tell your personal business in the workplace

If you live in a competitive job market with lots of opportunities, it doesn’t make sense to stay at a company longer than 2 years unless you’re learning new skills that you can use. Once things get stagnant, it’s time to go.

Sometimes, it’s fine to take a step back in order to go forward. Think strategically and map out where you want to go. Write down everything you need to get there and break it down into small steps. Ive taken positions that were “beneath me” because I knew it would open up opportunities.

use a cover letter

I’m reviewing candidates and resumes for a position I’m hiring for. And a shockingly low amount of people use cover letters when they apply.

I know it says (Optional) when you’re applying for a job. But I can tell you the people who do use Cover Letters stick out a lot more than the people who don’t.

Also, if you’re being ambitious and applying for a position that you’re not completely qualified for, you should DEFINITELY include a cover letter. That’s your chance to talk to them and state your case of why you should be considered.

I have a boiler plate cover letter that I slightly customize for each company. It really doesn’t take that much effort.
