Episode notes

"This is how we do over here. We're still getting our points out," says co-host Angie Amanpour. "You get a more accurate description of the role and it's that undersells it like you get all of you get so much more information than just a bulleted list of responsibilities, right? You get to interview them and honor your time." She adds: "The relationship really ends up trumping the resume".

When it comes to finding meaningful work, relationships are in & resumes are out! Turns out if you’re looking to make a change to more fulfilling work, your paper resume is actually pretty irrelevant in the career change process. Aligning your experience with a new role or a new industry is possible. You can have a meaningful, fulfilling career that pays well, but trolling job boards with your resume isn’t going to make it happen. On this episode, Liz & Ang discuss kickstarting your career change to meaningful work by proactively building relationships… and ditching your resume (just kidding… sort of).
