Today we’re talking to Safwaan Mir. Safwaan has spent a lot of time thinking through and trying different career paths and he has a lot to share from the journey. He recently went through a career change from data and analytics to product management and went through the whole recruiting and interview process with several big companies.
In this episode, we dive deep into how to set yourself apart, how to connect with people on LinkedIn, and the role that brand play on your resume.
Key Lessons:
1. Start shooting your shot - find people in the positions you want to be in and figure out what you need to do to get there
2. Your resume gets looked at for less than 15 seconds. Having brands that are big in the industry you’re applying to on your resume will increase your perceived value in the eyes of recruiters. If you don’t have the brand names you need to employ a different marketing strategy
