Ever wonder what hiring managers actually think when they see a resume from a former teacher?
In this episode, Lisa shares what she’s learned from both sides of the hiring process—as a former EdTech executive who interviewed hundreds of candidates (many of them teachers), and as a coach helping teachers land roles outside the classroom every day.
You’ll get practical advice on:

• What makes former teachers stand out—and what holds them back

• How to confidently talk about your skills in interviews• The most common resume mistakes and how to fix them

• What hiring managers are really looking for (spoiler: it's not perfection)

• The different types of interviews you’ll face in the corporate world
Plus, Lisa shares a preview of the upcoming Teacher Career Transition Summit, and the powerful panel session:"Educators on the Inside: Hiring Tips from Former Teachers Turned Hiring Managers."
You’ll hear from former teachers now working at PowerSchool, Krispy Kreme, and SchoolAI—who are pulling back the curtain on what it’s like to go from teacher to hiring decision-maker.
