If you have a non-linear career path, you're all but guaranteeing that you're throwing your resume down a black hole when you apply to jobs and lead with your resume. 

In this episode, I give you the framework to never have to do this again.

Topics discussed:

• I made a promise to myself that if I had to look for another job, for whatever reason, I was not going to find it leading with my resume.
• Find a way for people to talk about you when you're not in the room.
• People don't buy what you do; they buy why you do it.
• How to find a mentor
• How to find and reach out to people you think are interesting and would like to get to know better.
• Why hosting an event is a game changer

Books I mentioned or recommend reading on this topic:

• Croissants vs Bagels by Robbie Samuels
• Two-Hour Cocktail Party by Nick Gray
