More will be coming on that from next week, but for now enjoy this week’s jobs newsletter!
Brand New FO Perspectives Skool Careers Club!
We’ve spoken to well over a 1000+ students over the past few years about their intern and grad job search, and we hear many of the same problems
❌ “I’m not landing any Interviews”
❌ “I don’t have much guidance on how to navigate the application process”
❌ “I’m not sure what I want to do or what most roles actually are”
❌ “I’ve applied everywhere, but I’m not making any progress”
❌ “I don’t know how to network or speak to people in the roles I want”
Which made us realise, most students, graduates and job seekers are going through the same thing
And while we wish we could help everyone individually, we realised there must be a way we could help you all at once!
Which is why we created a new platform - FO Perspectives Careers Club!
