Women Interviews

Author: Joanne French

Ordinary women make the extraordinary leap into business ownership every day. Women-owned businesses contribute 1.4 trillion dollars in revenue yearly and employ over 9 million people (US). Yet, that 1.4 trillion is just a fraction (4.3%) of the private sector. Ladies, we got this! We can do better together! This podcast explores why women start-up and candidly discusses the ups and downs of business ownership. There are no unicorns here. Just real women who want to share their stories and pay it forward to anyone who owns a business, side hustle, or is thinking about one.

Rehumanizing the Executive Recruiter Experience with Amy Comly, Founder of Weller & Company
Wednesday, 29 January, 2020

Today I am speaking with Amy Comly, Founder of Weller & Company, a company that's re-humanizing the executive search experience. Here, Amy describes how she founded her executive search firm that rebels against common misconceptions about "headhunters." She explains how she "matchmakes" rather than "transacts" to identify talent for businesses. Doing this, she explains, changes the dynamic of working with an Executive Recruiter. It makes the experience more "human" for employers and candidates. We also discuss the essential components of networking with recruiters – why you need one and how to find one (Hint: LinkedIn is a good source). She describes the nuances of how she utilizes her networking skills to help employers and potential employees find the right fit that aligns with expectations on both sides.  Later in the show, Amy and I dive into the wealth of networking, especially for recent graduates, and how beneficial it can be to continue to improve your networking skills throughout your career. The episode ends with advice for nailing your next interview. Make sure to listen to these great tips! You can find Amy's business at www.wellerandcompany.com.
