Companies are hiring through me—want your resume in the mix?

I’m teaming up with

Hiring Humans 🤝🏼
on a simple but interesting idea: what if companies could hire directly through people who’ve done the exact jobs & who’re well-connected with similar professionals?

Here’s the deal - creators and coaches (the ones who’ve done the job) are better at spotting top candidates for a specific role than recruiters scanning a pile of resumes. So, instead of waiting and hoping, I’m putting great candidates—like you—directly in front of hiring managers.

Here’s how it works:

  1. You upload your resume.

  2. I connect with companies to understand exactly what they need.

  3. If there’s a fit, I’ll personally introduce you to the hiring manager.

Want in? Drop your resume here. Opportunities are already moving fast.

The hiring manager’s playbook: What you need to know

Last time, you told me the workshop with recruiter Becky was a game-changer.

So, we’re doing it again—this time, with someone who’s making the hiring decisions.

Join us on Wednesday, April 9, at 10 AM EST | 3 PM BST for a live conversation with

Jose Parreño Garcia
, Data Science Manager at Skyscanner.

He’s been on both sides of the interview table—first as a jobseeker, now as a hiring manager—and he’s ready to spill the details on what makes a candidate stand out.

We’ll cover:

  • His journey from data scientist to manager (and what he wishes he knew earlier)

  • The biggest differences between being an IC and leading a team

  • The top 3 mistakes that instantly tank your interview

  • What the “must-have” data science skills of the future look like

  • How AI is reshaping hiring—and what that means for you

And more.

Got burning questions? Drop them in the comments, and we’ll cover them live.

Yes, there will be a replay—but you’ll want to be there in real time. It’s your chance to ask a hiring manager exactly what you need to do to land your next role.

Premium readers, your invite is below. ⬇️
