My episode with Suresh Mathew on the 1 IDEA podcast is live today.

Most of the conversations that shape your career happen when you are not in the room. As engineers, we hate anything that feels like bragging, so we stay out of them.

What changed things for me was bringing other people into those conversations. The people you bring in become your net promoters, and they start asking why you are not in the room.

We also get into recruiters, LinkedIn, and how I use AI to see my resume the way a recruiter’s filter does. If you want more on the LinkedIn side, I wrote about it in Your LinkedIn Profile Is Killing Your Job Search.

You can watch it on YouTube, listen on Spotify, or find it on the 1 IDEA page.

Thanks to Sedai for the platform.
