S315: Bonus: Pre-Covid Job Search & Pandemic Partings




AcaDames show

Summary: In this episode, Sarah candidly reflects on her job search process through various “journal entries” in this audio time capsule. She guides us through why she went on the job market, how she navigated the interview process and negotiated both the verbal and written offer, and what it’s like to virtually transition into her new position at Wake Forest during a pandemic. Sarah documents her journey--including her anxieties, advice from mentors, and moments of self-advocacy and empowerment--while embracing her values of authenticity and open-mindedness.
