Women with Cool Jobs
A Powerful (and Free!) Tool to Find Your Next Cool Job: Informational Interviews, with Host Julie Berman
If you’re questioning your next career move, feeling stuck in your job search, or wondering what else is possible for you… this episode is for you.
I’m sharing a widely overlooked (yet totally awesome!) career strategy that has changed the trajectory of my own life: Informational Interviews.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why informational interviews open doors traditional networking may not
✨ How a simple 15–20 minute conversation can help you quickly determine if a career is actually right for you
✨ The questions to ask so you get honest, real-world insight beyond what job descriptions or Google can tell you
✨ Why curiosity becomes your internal compass when you’re exploring new possibilities
✨ How to reach out without feeling awkward or like you’re asking for a job (because you're not)
✨ Why these conversations naturally build meaningful, deeper connections
I also share how informational interviews completely changed my career trajectory and how they can help you discover what career opportunities best align with the future you want to create.
If you’re exploring, pivoting, or dreaming about what might be your next cool job, this episode will give you a roadmap with tactics and practical steps to move forward.
