Interviewing Assistant Editors - Is That a Good Answer?

What I’d love to do is give you an insider’s glimpse into the world of my Optimizer coaching & mentorship program and what we call the ‘Hot Seat.’ What you’ll hear today is a recording of an actual live session with an Optimizer student where on the Hot Seat we tackle various questions about career transitions, productivity, workflows, networking, burnout, habit formation, resumes and websites, and any number of other work or life challenges that students bring to the table as they navigate their own path towards success.

In the following hot seat session, I talk to community member Jonathan Hodges who is a promo editor in Baltimore looking to make the transition to Assistant Editor in scripted television. He has gone through my Insider’s guide to writing cold outreach and has received a lot of great responses from the people he's contacted. But he's feeling stuck on how to continue the conversation, build a long term relationship, and possibly even secure a mentor. Listen in on how I coach Jonathan to effectively build a relationship and continue to add value to the people he is connecting with.
