Cause I have a master's, I have the experience on my resume that I have and like how to present that in the best light so that people are willing to take a chance on me since I'm a more untraditional candidate frequently applying to these jobs.
I'm not sure. I think that a lot of times people who work in like health tech companies, even though they're further away from the actual healthcare delivery, really like to hear your why. And so I've been applying at a couple of places that are more oncology or cancer care focused. And I feel like I have a really strong why there as well.

My dad passed away from a short battle with cancer four years ago. And that has been really motivating to me to work somewhere really innovative and that's working to do cutting edge work with caring for people with cancer. And I feel like that's a really strong argument. I'm not just a nurse who is looking for a change. I've got a good story, but that's not always applicable.

Yes, I have spoken with a couple of different project and product managers. I actually am married to a product manager, but he is much more tech focused. So that I've been learning about what he's been doing for the past 10 years, but it's a lot different than the work I would want to be doing.

And I've talked with a product manager that works for a health insurance company and done a lot of talking with her very recently about what leads people to be successful in that role. And something that she said that I really felt hopeful about was someone who's a clear communicator and able to drive meetings forward is a key skill that they need that her current team lacks.

And that is something I feel like I have in spades. I am always the person in the meeting going, okay, we've talked about all these things, but what are we doing next? Okay, we're meeting again in two weeks. Who is going to have what piece of this puzzle done by then? What's getting in our way of getting these things moving forward? So that's been really great.
