So I didn’t get the sushi job. Which is unfortunate, as I was rather excited about the opportunity and felt like the interview went really well. Like, I felt like I proved my skills, that I interacted well with the guy I talked to as well as with a few people at the bar, I… Read more »

The best way to remind yourself of all of the things you don’t know is to go job-hunting

I submit the materials, only to get an email… Read more »
