How Career Informational Interviews Reveal Hidden Paths
from Career Compass with Fexingo: Daily Career Advice, Job Search Tips, and Professional Growth · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna explore why informational interviews are one of the most underused career tools. Lucas shares a specific story: a marketing manager who reached out to 12 people in a target role, got 8 responses, and ended up with a job offer from the 5th conversation — not because she asked for a job, but because she asked smart questions about the industry. They break down the exact script that worked, the mistake most people make (asking for advice instead of insight), and why January and February are the best months to run this experiment. Luna challenges the idea that this only works for extroverts, and they discuss a counterintuitive finding: the people who say no often provide the most useful information. By the end, you'll have a concrete plan to run your own five-conversation mini-campaign this quarter. #InformationalInterviews #CareerAdvice #NetworkingStrategy #JobSearchTips #CareerPivot #ProfessionalGrowth #CareerCompass #LucasAndLuna #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #JobSearchHacks #CareerChange #Networking #HiddenJobMarket #CareerMoves #CareerStrategy #PodcastEpisode #CareerDevelopment Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
