In the beginning especially, it was very frantic, very anxious. I would almost be at the computer 14-15 hours a day, just applying to any role that came across my screen. I reached out to the people closest to me at the companies that were interesting to me. At that point, maybe one or two referrals came through, but ultimately I was just going out there into the wild and just mass applying, shotgun-style and hoping for the best.

I went into this and I signed up because I knew that there was some work to do inside my head, and that if I didn't do that, it would impact me and come out during interviews. I really leaned into all of the story exercises and the TMAY exercises because I wanted to be at the top of my game for the big Power Day interview.

I think the name itself is expertly chosen. I think this program is really for somebody who is ready to really focus on finding the opportunity that is best for them, for what they want. Not this next role, but 2 roles down, 3 roles down, and really find that direction. You must choose a company profile. You must choose a role, a level, industry. Otherwise, you're gonna be spinning your rims, and you're gonna be wasting a lot of time.
