Job interviews?
Yael always uses stories in interviews. Before moving to the #GC @yaelberger only had private sector experience.
"Tell that story of how you're trying to become, that vision of yourself."

Do you have any advice on how to cold email people?

Know your audience - find out what they're about.
A short email, a hook

Don't make it transactional, make it authentic
