Even better! I've been in a position to see "network effects" over and over and over again at the highest levels.
I'm telling you an uncomfortable truth: Job hop.
>I had several C-level folks reach out with roles.
See, this is how I know we're speaking past each other. You're acting as if this means something. It doesn't. Until you can even being to accept this is just a placebo effect it's unlikely you'll accept the effort was wasted.
Something something can't convince a man he was fooled.
Then you’ve done a shitty job building your network. No wonder you don’t see any value.
I got laid off a bit ago - after announcing I was looking, I had several C-level folks reach out with roles.
You’re hot shit on an island until the day you aren’t. shrug
