Welcome back!

This is a podcast designed to help you recruit yourself.

It's a new world out there when it comes to the standard interview process we were all used to.  "When can you come in for an interview", turned into "when can we virtually meet"...wait, what....

Now, we are all familiar with virtual life pre and post COVID to some extent, but now it's more normal than not that you won't meet your future employer in person during the interview process or if ever depending on the job you are applying for.

Let's talk about it!

Yours in Hospitality,

Catarina
