This week’s episode is a special one because I got to chat with someone who is very near and dear to me who asked to keep their identity anonymous due to the nature of their current role.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to work at the company you’re applying for?
When you’re looking for work, a lot of variables are at play that will inevitably determine if one application will turn into your next opportunity. But it’s not that easy. A lot of companies do well at gatekeeping their culture, whether it’s intentional or not.
As you navigate the interview process, questions come up and gut checks need to be in place so that you’ll know whether or not you’re setting yourself up for success. Nate and Before You Apply, help you get a closer look at transparency, culture and the future of work.

You see, I met Charly back in 2015 by total fluke. Not only was I unaware that I was meeting a lifelong friend, but also someone who would consistently share career advice with me whenever I needed it most. Charly's experience building her career in the HR space comes back to one consistent ethos: help people find jobs that suit them, and build a working culture that inspires them to grow.
Needless to say, when I started LFW, she was one of the first people I called to hop on the mic.
This week, we're talking about:
-building meaningful connections with people (i.e. networking)
-the job application process from an HR point of view
-expanding your career and dealing with imposter syndrome (we've all been there)
