The Unwritten Rules of Getting Hired & Promoted with Dr. Lindsey Plewa and Laura Massetti

#CareerAdvice #EarlyCareer #professionaldevelopment Career advice for your first 5 years that nobody actually teaches you. Career coach Dr. Lindsey Plewa on the unwritten rules of hiring, getting promoted, and building a support system that lasts. Most people are navigating their careers without the manual. Nobody tells you what hiring managers are actually thinking. Nobody tells you that waiting to be noticed is one of the most costly mistakes you can make. Nobody tells you that the strongest professionals you will ever meet are the ones who figured out how to ask for help. Dr. Lindsey Plewa has spent over 15 years on the inside of the career process — as a career coach, speaker, and higher education professional at Baruch College in New York City. She has seen what early professionals get wrong before they even know they are getting it wrong. In this conversation, she says out loud what most people never hear until it is too late. 🎙️ IN THIS EPISODE ✅ The unspoken rules of hiring and career growth that nobody puts in a job description or an onboarding guide ✅ Why you are the one in charge of your career — and what it actually costs you when you wait for someone else to advocate for you ✅ How self-awareness becomes a real competitive advantage, and what tools like CliftonStrengths change in practice ✅ Why the strongest professionals you know are the ones who ask for help, and what building the right support system actually looks like 🚀 REAL WORK READY If this conversation made you realize there are things nobody told you, that is exactly what Real Work Ready is built for.
