1/ Hey Twitter, have you applied to 157 jobs this year and gotten a handful of interviews and still not a single offer?

[continue the thread]

 2/ It’s been a rough year for many of us and being unemployed is a huge added stressor to that.

Here are a few of the main issues I’ve seen with students in my program.
3/ ISSUE #1

You’re limiting yourself to one single strategy - applying on job boards.

Job boards have a really low success rate. Unless your resume and skill set is really outstanding, you’re competing against HUNDREDS of other applicants and your chances are low.
4/ ISSUE #2

You’re not being intentional.

It may seem like the right approach to browse and apply for whatever kind of fits.

But you’re fitting a square peg in a round hole.

So the opposite. Sit down and design your next role. Wants, work, companies and deal breakers.
5/ ISSUE #3

You’re up in your own head.

You’ve written and rewritten your resume a hundred times. You FEEL EXHAUSTED and are using a lot of energy, but aren’t actually applying to very many jobs.

Focus on outreach and connections. Talk to everyone you know!
6/ ISSUE #4

You’re getting interviews but not landing them.

This takes practice. Practice with a friend or a career coach.

It’s likely that you’re coming across unfocused, or you haven’t mapped out specific quantifiable accomplishments for them to latch on to.
7/ ISSUE #5

You’re not following up!

The “thank you” email is not just a formality. It is a critical step in the process.

In it you can:

1- Remind them about the things they loved about you.

2- Address any of their concerns or mistakes you made

3- Give some extra details
8/ Over the course of the 2020, I’ve been able to help people like Blake.

- spent 9 months applying
- applied to between 160-220 jobs

He just got a great job that hit his target salary right from the start.

With some negotiation coaching we landed him $5K more. 🔥
9/ Then we’ve got people like Annie. Annie was a MACHINE.

- spent 12 months job searching
- applied to 160 jobs
- got LOTS of interviews

But couldn’t land a job.

3 weeks into my program she landed a job offer $20K higher than her last job.
10/ Then we have people like Andrew who spent a lot of money on other career programs who have them very generic advice that didn’t help much with his specific circumstance.

They didn’t give him:

- support and accountability
- help and feedback when an opportunity came up
11/ Then we’ve got Jorge

- applied for 160 jobs
- spent 12 months job seeking

3 weeks into the program, using the email outreach techniques I taught him, he landed an incredible job offer.

Then he was afraid to negotiate. When we did, he got $5K higher salary.
12/ Then we’ve got Marsha

Marsha was great, she just needed to quantify what she has done and what she expects to accomplish at this new company.

She landed a great offer, then with some salary negotiation coaching, we landed her a second offer $10K HIGHER! 🔥🔥🔥
13/ So a bit more about the program I offer:

- 6 weeks
- Group coaching
- Live calls every Saturday
- 10:30am - 12:00noon
- 1-on-1 calls with me for any major event (interview, salary negotiation etc)
- Private slack accountability group
- A total overhaul on your job search
14/ In just the first week, you’ll start building out an insanely-organized job search pipeline the likes of which you’ve never seen before.

Here you’ll see precisely who is reading your emails and when to help you make data-driven decisions on what to focus your efforts on.
15/ If that sounds like your jam the next program starts on Saturday, January 9th so don’t wait!

You can apply at

16/ Or if this thread sounds good enough for you, you can skip the site and apply right here:

17/ If you’re wondering about the value of the course, consider what you’ll pay with other coaches:

Typical Career Coaches
$150 -250/hour

Online Career Course
$200-400

Resume Rewrite Session
$200
18/ What you’ll get:

- 9 Hours of Live Group Classes
$500+ value

- Average 3-5 hrs of 1-on-1 sessions per student
$600- $1000+ value

🎁BONUS
- Sign up by Jan 1 and get a free 1-on-1 resume rewrite ($200 value)

Value: $1300-1700
Price: $749 🤯
19/ And the results speak for themselves.

Don’t wait! There are only 5 spots left in the program! Let’s chat today!

@lhochstein "It's complicated"

Having been in Amazon, Google, MS, the Google process is (was!) a clear outlier, which was totally culturally aligned with how everything else in the company worked.

1) Designed to fail closed
2) Detail over big picture
3) Written over relationship

1) "Fail closed" -- jargon for "optimised to say no by default".

Many processes in Google were like this, probably the largest other one being the hiring process. (Many Googlers hated the hiring process since they felt it said no to people who would 100% have been great hires...

...sometimes being burned to the extent of refusing to do any more interviewing.)

But the promotion process is (was) the same way - if the committee couldn't convince itself the case was watertight, it wouldn't promote.

This obviously led to a situation where a lot of cases were refused and meant a lot of heartache and unnecessary departures, but also a situation where by god if you'd MADE that bar, it was close to undeniable.

There was a very strong shared sense of what each level meant.

Some more so than others: I think L5/Senior is probably the one most folks have the largest degree of precision on, and above that it's harder to tell. But one benefit was that title/grade inflation was very strongly counteracted by "the system".

Sooo, some time ago I've promised a thread about my job as a product manager for Kotlin Multipaltform Mobile team. And Friday seems like a good day to do it. Let's roll?

What do I do as a product manager for KMM? Well, same things all pm's do: explore my product, its users and the market around it, work on our strategy and goals, help teams with planning, conduct researches, test hypothesises, and so on, and so on.

Ok, ok, before you get bored to death: there are also things I do not because I'm a pm, but because no one else wants to do it - and this shit needs to be done.

Top-3 things I wish I did not do on this job:
1. Writing documentation
2. Trying to think of a proper name for a product couple of years after it was released (ugh)
3. Fixing some content on our landing page with zero knowledge about web development (actually went pretty well)

Now you can try and guess which pages on https://t.co/ffwIQ8psaY were written by me 🤣

(THREAD) Pre-election Russia collusion may take down Trump. It's equally possible the Trumps' pre- and post-election collusion with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Israel will do it—a course of collusion also connected to the Kremlin. I explain here. I hope you'll read on and retweet.


1/ I must stress how unbelievably complex the "Grand Bargain" theory of the Trump-Russia case is—a different thing from saying it's not substantiated. It's substantiated in *almost every single particular*—it just *also* happens to be very confusing. Not byzantine—just confusing.

2/ The basics: Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the UAE all view Iran as their chief regional enemy. Iran is propped up by Russia. Therefore the Saudis, Israelis, and Emiratis all need a US government willing to find a way to get the Kremlin to *stop* supporting Iran in the Middle East.

3/ The best way to get Russia to stop supporting Iran—or reduce support—was/is to drop all sanctions on Russia over its 2014 annexation of Crimea, as that'd be worth *trillions* to the Kremlin over the next decade. Everyone knew that Clinton wouldn't do this—and that Trump would.

4/ Per the NYT, on August 3, 2016, Donald Trump Jr. met secretly at Trump Tower with a Saudi and Emirati emissary, George Nader, as well as an Israeli intelligence expert, Joel Zamel, with *significant* ties to both Israeli intelligence *and* Russian oligarchs allied with Putin.

Yantrodharaka Anjaneya Temple, Hampi, Karnataka.

This temple dedicated to pawanputra Hanuman, near the banks of Tungabhadra river was built by dwaita philosopher and rajguru of the Vijayanagar empire, Sri Vyasaraja around +500 years ago.


:It is only in this temple that Hanuman appears in a prayer position. In this image, Bhagwan Hanuman’s crown has been formed by his tail.12 monkeys have been carved around this amulet.


:They represent the 12 days Sri Vyasaraja prayed to Hanuman ji. Each monkey holds the tail of the monkey in front of him but is facing backward. Seed syllables have also been carved around the amulet.


:It is believed that Sri Vyasaraja used to draw a picture of lord Hanuman here on the rocks before offering prayers using charcoal and the sketch disappeared after prayers.This incidence happened for 12 days in a row until he pleaded to bhagwan to appear in front of him.


On the 12th day, Hanuman ji appeared in front of Sri Vyasaraja and blessed him. Hanuman asked Sri Vyasaraja to constrain him in a hexagonal amulet & install him in that place.

Gather round, Gentle Readers. It is time I tell the story of the worst decision I ever made in an office. Some of you have heard this. Some have not. Whatever you do in your office today, this week, the rest of this year, you can console yourself by recalling this tale.

A long time ago, I was a talent agent. I worked for a woman named Susan Smith, who had her own small boutique agency. She was known for three things:

1. She had fantastic taste in clients. If there is someone you admire, odds are good that at some point, she was their agent,

2. She could negotiate a deal like few who have ever trod the earth. Casting would give her all the money they had budgeted for that part, plus a little more, plus promising to get her dog Barnaby groomed. She was magnificent to watch.

3. She was insane.

I'm sure you're thinking, "Quinn, it's the entertainment industry, they are all insane." Yes, many are. So consider this; if you told someone you worked for Susan, people who worked for insane people would look and you and whisper, "I hear she's insane."

RISHI PINGALA:THE ANCIENT INDIAN SAGE DISCREDITED FOR HIS MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATHEMATICS & PHI

Have you ever heard about,"The Golden Ratio"?
The Golden Ratio or Phi(Greek) is a mathematical ratio of nature. Mother Nature is the most exquisite artist in herself.


&Its this Phi she uses to create all the beauty in World.
If anyone uses this ratio correctly in their art,it can turn into a spell-binding piece of work.Such is the significance of'Phi'.But my thread isn't about it.Its about somethin called'Fibonacci Series'&who actually made it


Phi is related to Fibonacci series(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...)
&this series is responsible for everything dat is beautiful on this planet. Just try to calculate the ratio of any 2 successive numbers ÷ each of them by the number before it in above infinite series.

E.g. 3/2=1.5, 5/3=1.666, 8/5=1.6, 34/21=1.61904 and so on. Did you notice something? The ratio is coming almost same every time. This ratio is called 'Phi 'which is numerically represented as 1:1.618. This Golden Spiral is made in exact proportion of 1:1.618.


The thing I want to emphasize here is that we always find only those things appealing and attractive that have Phi. It's in our subconscious. Isn't it some revelation? We are the part of this Divine proportion of the God or the Mother Nature. Check these:

Did you know?
Ahilyabai Holkar was one of India's
greatest women rulers of all time.

Ahilyabai was Born on May 31,1725 in the village of Chondi,Jamkhed distt,Maharashtra to a man named Mankoji Shinde,who was the Patil(Chief) of a village and a member of proud Dhangar Community.


Despite the fact that girls' education was a farther dream in those days, Ahilyabai was homeschooled by her father.
Ahilya didn't belong to any royal family but in a twist of fate she is still remembered as one of the most revered Queen in the history.


While they were living their humdrum lives, one day Malhar Rao Holkar, commander of the Peshwa Bajirao & Lord of the Malwa stopped in Chondi on his way to Pune, where he couldn't help but notice a young 8yrs old Ahilyabai in the temple service feeding the poor & hungry.

He was so impressed by the sheer innocence&beauty with simplicity character of Ahilyabai dat he asked her hand in marriage for his son Khanderao Holkar.Just like that she got married to Khanderao in 1733 at a tender age of 8&became a bride of esteemed Maratha community of Holkars

But destiny had something else in store for her as her husband died in the Battle of Kumbher in 1754 leaving her widow at 29.Distressed Ahilyabai was to commit Sati when her father-in-law Malhar Rao refused to let it happen.
