As per the post roughly:

Step 1. Polish your resume

Step 2. Avoid the holidays

Step 3. Set up Calendly

Step 4. Be able to answer what it is that you do

It is truly "how" instead of "where" like I first expected. The author provided some good tips that most people omit because at first they might seem like common sense but what makes this actually good is the fact that most tips provided come with an actionable suggestion rather than an empty "do this and nevermind how". Also the gotcha about Calendly importing Facebook birthdays and booking the whole day was great.

Looking forward to part two.



Yep, a decent summary.

Haha, my wife told me to avoid writing that part with Facebook birthdays, because no one would probably care.

Thanks for this comment!
