Reframing Failure and The Importance of Branding Yourself with HR Practitioner Fiona Maingi

“So what are your weaknesses?”

Probably the question we all either under or overprepare for as we think about the looming interview.

On this week’s episode, full-stack tech-recruiter and HR practitioner Fiona Maingi, shares with us how her journey from law grad to HR specialist has shaped who she is today. Fiona shares with us how her mindset of reframing failure has been essential in her personal growth. She also shares with us tips on branding yourself as you prepare for your next step in your career whether that be now or in the future.

We’re so excited to finally have Fiona on the podcast and we’re really looking forward to having her back on in the future.

Let us know what you took away from this episode by leaving a voicenote, we’d love to know.
