Start by asking yourself: what makes me unique?

Compared to co-workers, compared to friends, etc.
What am I particularly good at?
What do I find easy that other people might struggle with?
What compliments mean the most to me because I know they represent my "superpowers"?

This is a great place to start. Before you ask anyone else, before you take personality tests, etc. Ask YOURSELF. It can be uncomfortable, but incredibly satisfying at the same time. Start to articulate your superpowers in your own words.

Please let me know how it goes!

I’m starting to invest more in my brand. I used to think my brand was just my appearance and my communication skills.

But now, as a founder, my brand includes my credibility.

Yes, our PB includes our credibility. Great point!

Our PB is our identity, and our identity includes so many things... for example: our credentials, title, firm, industry, discipline, values, personality traits (how we communicate), our appearance, hobbies, family role, affiliations (who we hang out with, clubs we belong to), social media platforms we use, our words,...

I want to get out of ID so badly. I don’t mind the work but the hours are just killing me. I just started at a new firm less than 6 months ago and I am already desperate to get out. It is not the firm or the people. I just hate the high billables. I have been applying to other jobs but I think I may need a recruiter for help. Any recommendation for a great recruiter in NYC?

M&A/PE associate (trying to juggle multiple deals) feeling like I don’t have time to dive deeper into issues and it being highlighted in some of my work product as I am having to turn things right away and just pushing things out - so issues I may have caught if I had a better/deeper/higher level understanding are more apparent when partners review. Truly feeling like I’m just messing up all around but trying to give myself grace. How do you know if it’s just you or a part of the process?

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE
