Over the weekend I gave a talk at Podcamp Ohio 2 in Columbus, Ohio, about this project to other job seekers, and I was reminded of Suki’s interview from last December.  I figured it was a great time to revisit her story.

In this episode of How I Got My Job (mp3, 33:09, 30.3 MB), Suki Fuller shares how she got a job in Competitive Intelligence. Learn what competitive intelligence is, the three things Suki considers to have been vital to her success in getting that job, how she handled the interviewing process, and so much more.
