Bossed Up

Today on the podcast I’m revisiting one of my most popular posts that I’m constantly referring folks to: how to have effective networking meetings. But today I want to discuss how this applies specifically to folks who are seeking out informational interviews as a part of their job search strategy - since it’s such a great one.
