1. 0:00_23 asks, "Why can't I get a job? I have
2. 0:04a master's."
3. 0:06>> Oh, that is the entire question. Um
4. 0:09because you think that the fact that you
5. 0:10have a master's somehow
6. 0:12requires a business to give you a job.
7. 0:15That'll be where I'd start. Um
8. 0:18if I could remake education, I would
9. 0:19have the master's degrees only apply to
10. 0:22departments that they would be in. Uh
11. 0:24because you probably want to get a
12. 0:26master's in order to get a job. If you
13. 0:28want to get a job, you will work inside
14. 0:29of a department. And so, are we working
15. 0:31in marketing or we working in sales or
16. 0:32we working customer success or we
17. 0:34working in tech or we working in finance
18. 0:36or we working in legal? Like, where are
19. 0:38we working? What department are we
20. 0:39working at? Um and that would make if
21. 0:40you want to get into private market as
22. 0:41in capital normal privately owned
23. 0:43businesses,
24. 0:44um then you want to be able to describe
25. 0:46how what you learned will help the
26. 0:48business make more money.
27. 0:49And so, again, I would encourage like if
28. 0:51you have a master's, whatever, you might
29. 0:53be able to get on the interview, but
30. 0:54that's not going to get you the job. And
31. 0:56so, of course, there's interviewing
32. 0:57skills, but I I so strongly encourage
33. 1:00anyone who is looking for a job to be
34. 1:02able to clearly articulate what they do
35. 1:05and how it interacts with the metrics
36. 1:08that a business
37. 1:10wants to drive.
38. 1:12So,
39. 1:13if you can describe that, you will set
40. 1:14yourself apart from many other
41. 1:15candidates.
42. 1:16Um and you will be more likely to get
43. 1:18roles that are meaningful. If you like
44. 1:20this video and you're a business owner
45. 1:21who wants to break through your current
46. 1:22revenue ceiling, I just spilled every

49. 1:27million into a completely free scaling
50. 1:29revenue map that I've used to go from
51. 1:31zero to one, zero to 10, and zero to 100
52. 1:33plus. And so, you can click here and you
53. 1:34can check it out. Again, absolutely
54. 1:36free. And since you're a business owner,
