Maya Perry '13 Marketing Manager at cnvrg.io CDAE
Moving to a new country, trial, and error and why context matters with Maya Perry, marketing manager at cnvrg.io in Jerusalem, Israel.
In this episode of the show, we talk about how Maya became in charge of marketing for a company that just received $8 million in funding despite not having all the prior experience required. She was employee #3 at a now 30-person company!
We also talk about the following topics:
Exposure to different roles and responsibilities early on can help you figure out what you like and don’t like.
Context matters - Maya struggled in one type of economics class but did really well in another.
Landing a job being a summer camp counselor through a parent.
Opportunities don’t always look like what you thought.
Maya and I talk about how we’ve both cried after meetings and how trying sales let her know that it’s not for her, and that was a great experience.
How Maya made a big move to another country.
Strategies for finding answers/resources on your own.
“What do you want to do?” can be the best question in the world, or the worst question in the world if you aren’t prepared to answer.
Knowing your strengths can help set your company up for success because they can go get what you need to compliment your skillsets.
