A few weeks back I had a chance to talk to Nicole Crimaldi and she gave me some rock solid advice on life, careers, and blogging. If I had known half of what she told me when I was looking for a job, I probably would have found one much sooner. Hereβs some of the highlights:
Why it doesnβt matter if your background has nothing to do with marketing/pr/social media
Why Networking is essential to your success as a young entrepreneur
The importance of focus
Why the rat race is far scarier than taking risks
Why a blog is something that could be your career insurance policy
Why having a transparent social media presence is actually helpful in a job search
Why blogging needs to stop being treated as a hobby
Highlighting the work of other people on your own blog in order to build a strong relationship
How a controversial blog post calling out an A-list blogger lead to a spike in traffic
How her blog has resulted in connections with best selling authors and many more interesting people
