>#8) Last one — always trust your intuition and get in there and really talk to people. [...] The job I took — on paper not nec a match for me and glassdoor reviews were also not encouraging to me.

"Ok, so I have no numbers on applications, but its 20+. I have very high criteria, I'm selective asf. No one talks back to me, they're all super rude. But now I've got a job. Ok, it doesn't meet my criteria, and yeah, bad rep on glassdor, but my spidey senses say we're cool. #alwaysfollowyourintuition"
