I'm in a career transition, and I'm looking forward to going through these articles in more detail. I've never been great at cold outreach, but I'm realizing this is a muscle I'm going to have to work if I want to open myself up to new possibilities.

love this personal yet editorial way you write, report, and deliver mallory - saving this post to have some linkedin related reading that is decidedly value-added and uplifting and human

your Linkedin posts have been so immensely helpful for my job search for a new role and for career advice in general! I think I’ve saved most/all of these before and love that you now have a substack! :)

Glad I came across your posts this year! Your honesty about career stuff is so refreshing, and I love that you are so intentional about what you choose to work on (it’s weirdly comforting when I’m wondering if I’m being too stubborn haha). Thanks for sharing so openly.

Yay. I am so excited. I paused on joining OGC, but I'm planning on activating that during the holiday since I took slack off. This is soooo needed and thank you!

curious, is there anything you think you'll do differently on linkedin next year?

honestly, no. i don't buy any of the 'here's how to work with the algo' advice, so I think if you keep showing up and trying to be helpful that's the best you can do.
