I’ve been listening to Career Contessa for a couple years now, and last year I decided to sign up for the ‘Asking for a Raise’ course after listening to the episode with David Buckmaster on salary negotiations (Mar 2022). It took me two attempts, but I’m proud to report that this year I...Read full review »

I discovered the Career Contessa blog about 5 years back when I was in the thick of a career transition and have found value in all of the resources that the team puts together.

I discovered Career Contessa on Instagram originally, and found the podcast several months ago while deciding whether or not to make a career move. I’ve found new and older episodes equally helpful and interesting. I share certain episodes that really resonate with friends and my employees.
LCH5464 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/22
Only area for improvement to me would be consider if a music bed is really needed or if it’s fighting with the interviewer’s answers. Overall love this podcast tho!

Stef4Joy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/22
Should this whole podcast be renamed to include that it’s focused on working moms, not working women as a whole? You’re leaving out almost 30% of women that don’t or CAN’T have children. Still women, still with all the micro aggressions, almost always still caregivers, not all mothers. What...Read full review »
