Summary
Think getting ahead is about luck? Think again. In this episode of Almost Adulting, I’m giving you my unfiltered playbook for turning every 'no' into a 'hell yes,' getting hired when you’re underqualified, nailing interviews, and beating the competition for the promotion you deserve.
Today you’ll learn how to:
• Get a YES (even when you’re not the obvious choice) through manipulation
• Turn rejection into opportunity
• Outshine everyone in an interview and get hired on the spot
• Position yourself for the next big promotion
• And walk away with strategies that will change how you move in business and in life, forever.
Don’t forget to share today’s episode with anyone who needs a wake-up call, and save it so you can come back to it whenever you need a reminder. And of course, if you enjoyed today’s episode, please leave me a five-star review on the Apple Podcasts app! I love you so much, thank you for listening, bestie.
