275: The Power of Pitching Yourself to Create Your Own Opportunities
Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for First-Gen BIPOCs
Shownotes Transcript
In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, I discuss the invaluable skill of pitching yourself to create your own opportunities. If you’ve ever wondered how people suddenly have access to great opportunities, odds are they may be pitching themselves for that.
Today you’ll learn exactly how to pitch yourself and you'll discover different scenarios where you might want to pitch yourself, such as for internships, side hustles, bartering, and even working with people you admire. Tune in to learn how to market yourself and your skills effectively, form mutually beneficial relationships, and gain access to hidden opportunities.
***__*CORRECTION__: ****On the episode I mention that over 90% of jobs aren't listed publicly and are part of the hidden job market. That number should have been 80%. *
