What Hiring Managers Actually Think (But Will Never Tell You) with Deepali Vyas
Q: What does it mean to be ambitious today?
Ambition now centers on optionality and control over your narrative, not just climbing a ladder; it's about designing a portfolio of roles and being visible in a way that supports the whole enterprise, not just one logo.
