🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Yannick “Hey Emma and Sarah, My name is Yannick, and I'm a listener from London. I've been a fan of your podcast since 2021 when I was going through an internal promotion to become a supervisor at my current company. I got that promotion, and I've continued to listen to your podcast ever since. I love your podcast because you're both so authentic, engaging, and funny. I've often found myself smiling while listening to you, even when I'm doing something else, like grocery shopping. Recently, there was another promotion opportunity for a few manager positions. I decided to apply, and the interview process was quite intense. It involved an AI chat interview called Sopia.ai (which you might want to consider covering on your podcast), a company knowledge test, and a final interview with people. I used all of the techniques and tips that I've learned from you, and I hope I have done you both proud. At the same time, I've been mentoring Denis, who is on my team and is also going for the supervisor position. I introduced him to your podcast, and he loves it. He even said that you're his favorite two sisters in the whole world. Denis and I have been supporting each other throughout the interview process, and we both just finished our final interviews this week. On behalf of Denis and myself, I want to thank you for everything that you're doing to inspire millions of people to gain the knowledge and confidence to go for their dream jobs. Regardless of the outcome of our interviews, we're both very grateful for your help. Thank you again, Yannick”
