Un-Gatekeeping the Interview Process with Layla Shaikley

Laila Shaikley makes her own luck, not with influence or money or connections, but with sheer persistence. And she’s here today to share how that persistence and willingness to put herself on cringe mountain has opened up one opportunity for another for her – and why it’ll do the same for you.

If you’ve ever felt the twinge of imposter syndrome or talked yourself out of opportunities because you felt “unqualified,” you need this conversation.

What’s in this episode:

  • [00:00] Intro

  • [02:00] Why building your personal brand is a chance for you to share your own cheat codes and share your expertise

  • [04:00] Why parenting and leadership require many of the same skills

  • [09:00] How you can create your own luck through persistence

  • [16:00] What you can do to stand out at interviews

  • [25:00] How you should guide your own narrative during the interview process

  • [30:00] Why you should apply for jobs you’re underqualified for

  • [38:00] The cheat code to reading more books

  • [43:00] How to fight fear through problem solving and innovation
