    How to Stop Selling Yourself Short

    by Hacking Adulthood February 9, 2017

    There’s quite a disconnect between the preparation we receive in school for life after school. If ultimately the purpose of school is to prepare you for the job market, it shouldn’t just prepare you to work but also prepare you to navigate the politics of it. We should learn skills such as salary negotiation, what to expect for an entry level job for your field, and everything else.

This however, is never an excuse not to slay slay slay! Your style should be both fashionable and functional.

    by Anita Asiedu May 17, 2016

    Employers know that you have multiple social media accounts and they’re increasingly starting to look to these accounts to get a better picture of who you are.
