Ready to take control?

Below is from one of our Accelerator people who recently completed the — "How to Control Your Career" course. It's not sexy because it's not spoon fed box checking and tactics.

It requires some thoughtfulness and reflection. But guess what? Once this starts to click... I see people just AUTOMATICALLY doing the things that get them noticed without me having to spell out specifics.

From the Accelerator Slack:

"So just wanted to share a small win. I've been going over the secure your career lesson and really engraving in myself what makes me special and the amazing things I've done in my career. Trying to understand that it's not about knowing xyz or having experience with every tech out there. I saw a job post on LinkedIn that wasn't a 100% fit but decided what the heck I can help this team! There was a text box to write a cover letter. I hardly ever write cover letters but this time I wrote a small impactful paragraph about how I can jump in and help the team based on a couple of things l've done recently which I articulated. 2 hours later I received an email for a screening. I don't remember getting ANY positive response back from cold applying let alone 2 hours later in the last 2+ years!"
