Favorite Quotes:

1. “If we go into a job search, so focused on leaving what we want to walk away from instead of finding what we want to run towards... if we're so fearful that there won't be enough opportunities or that we have to take whatever comes our way, we're going to miss things.”

2. “If you don't understand your secret sauce transferable skills, and you don't unlock your fulfillment framework, you'll keep uncovering these small things that don't align.”

3. “The right fit will actually build synergy, and it will position you as the top candidate; the one who is such a great match that anyone else is a significant step down.”
