Looking for a job? The Unwritten Rules of Job Search Networking

Most job seekers will find their next job through networking - 80-85% according to one recent article. But for many of us, we've never had to network - so reaching out to people to find a job can be daunting. This session will focus on the very practical side of networking, from outreach, to the conversation itself, to following up. Join me for this 1 hour session to gain insight into how to get started with your job search networking and how to overcome the fears that hold people back.

8 Steps to an MBA App: 3) Core Values, Superpowers & LOR Strategy

Applying to business school can feel overwhelming! You have dozens of moving pieces: essays, short answers, video content, resume, recommendations, outreach, research, and more. This workshop is the third of a structured 8-part MBA Identity Mapping series designed to take you from fragmented tasks to a clear plan of action. In this session, you will identify your core values and defining strengths and begin aligning your Letters of Recommendation with your overall narrative. These sessions walk you step by step through building one fully aligned MBA application. In every workshop, you will be assigned tasks to complete over the next two weeks, keeping you organized and accountable. By the end, you will have strong, authentic essays and a cohesive narrative that runs consistently through your resume, goals, recommendations, school strategy, and interviews. You are absolutely welcome to watch individual sessions if you only need focused help on a specific component(s) of your MBA application. Event 3 clarifies your defining characteristic and begins the recommendation process: • Identify 3–5 core values and superpowers that consistently appear across your key stories. • Define what each strength truly means in your life and how it shows up in action. • Ensure your positioning reflects who you actually are, not who you think admissions wants you to be. • Learn how to select recommenders and ensure strong narrative alignment. This is the phase where your stories become identity. Instead of a collection of experiences, you now articulate the defining qualities that connect your past, present, and future. The MBA Identity Mapping process has guided 100+ applicants into every M7 program, all other top 20 U.S. programs, and leading international programs including INSEAD, London Business School, IESE, Esade, Oxford, Cambridge, NUS, and more. Clients consistently describe it as transformative because it replaces scattered effort with forward momentum and strategic clarity. If you are ready to clarify what truly defines you and ensure your recommendations reinforce your positioning, this is your next step.

3 AI Skills to Land Your Job in ... The Semiconductor Industry

Some people assume semiconductors are invisible: microscopic circuits, abstract specifications, products too small to see. In a sense, that is true. And yet the industry behind them is as physical as manufacturing gets. Cleanrooms where a single particle of dust is an unacceptable defect. Machines costing hundreds of millions of dollars, operated by teams with years of specialized training. Processes requiring a level of precision that makes most other industries look approximate. These are tangible products in the most demanding sense: you cannot hold a chip between your fingers the way you hold a seal or a grease, but the physical constraints that govern its production are absolute. I spent more than 10 years working with the semiconductor industry, familiar with its major players and their exacting requirements. There is something genuinely satisfying about contributing to miniaturization generation after generation: smartphones that fit in a pocket, supercomputers that keep accelerating, electronics that the modern world depends on without a second thought. You can be a substantial part of that evolution. This Tuesday session covers the semiconductor industry: one of the fastest-moving, most capital-intensive, and most precision-driven sectors on the planet. We will discuss three specific AI skills that are changing what hiring managers expect, and how you can demonstrate them before you walk into an interview. If you want a career where the tangible product you help create sets the pace for everything else, this session is for you.
