This conversation starts in the interview process. It's a two-way street, you're interviewing an organization just as much as they are interviewing you.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role? Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?
Kelli: I'm a senior writer who loves using creative content strategy to tell impactful stories. A dream company would be mission-driven doing amazing things in the world.

MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?

Paloma: I am passionate about using my skills to make a positive impact on the world, and I believe that a creative leadership role in a health, fitness, or sustainability focused company would be the perfect fit for me.

Open to Remote Opportunities in Seattle, WA, London, or Hamburg
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!
Mandi: I have jumped around in different industries, including the non-profit, startup, and most recently, the tech world, honing my skills in marketing, community building, events, and partnerships. It's been amazing to have these different kinds of experiences, from working with small teams and being so hands on with projects from start to finish to working for larger companies and learning from their already established processes. What's been the glue of my career is working for companies whose mission I am super passionate about!
MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Mandi: The value of feedback. No matter someone's role or seniority at the company, there is always something to be learned and ways we can grow as humans and professionals.

MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Mandi: You don't know what you don't know. Making mistakes in our professional career is inevitable (we're human!), and the way your manager acts can be a reflection of their leadership style and the company. Use mistakes as learning opportunities for both you and your manager and prioritize space and time to reflect on how to avoid them in the future.
Caroline Diamond (prev. Marketing Analyst at Veris Insights)
Open to Opportunities in Annapolis, MD or Remote
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!

I excel in crafting compelling visuals and persuasive campaigns, and I'm dedicated to making a meaningful impact in marketing. I thrive on creativity, strategic thinking, and strong communication, and I'm committed to continuous learning and collaboration to drive success in this dynamic field.
MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Caroline: The most valuable lesson I learned is to communicate as much as possible with your team (especially managers, directors, and c-suite) to always continue learning because the marketing industry is always advancing and changing.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role? Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?
Caroline: I'm looking for a company that values culture and aligns with my values of being service-oriented. I want to be able to combine my creativity skills with a data-driven approach to build best-in-class marketing solutions.

Nancy Ryerson (prev. Content Marketing Director at Carrot Fertility)
Open to Opportunities in NYC or Remote
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!

MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Nancy: In my most recent role, I thought a lot about the advantage people have over AI when creating content. Customer interviews, owned research, and multimedia content like podcasts and videos are all powerful ways to share original stories that truly connect with your audience — and are currently pretty impossible for AI to pull off.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role?
Nancy: In my next role, I'd love to continue using my interviewing and research skills to bring content to life. Content has changed over the years, but people still need to get their questions answered, be entertained, and feel heard and seen by what they read, watch, and listen to.
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Nancy: Something I would tell my younger self is to "market your marketing." It benefits your entire team and your role when leaders outside of marketing understand the impact your work is having on the business. Treat it like any other project and consider your audience, the best results to highlight, and how to share your story so it reaches the right people.

MHH: What are you looking for in a future role?
Anny: Influencer marketing or Social Media Marketing!
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Anny: Start freelance as early as you can! If you have the ability, start your business after that.
Anika Chhabra (prev. Marketing + Communications Coordinator at Poured App)
Open to Opportunities in NYC or Miami, FL
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!
Anika: I recently graduated, Magna Cum Laude from FAU with a degree in Marketing, and two certifications in digital marketing and environmental science. My goal was to always combine both my passion for fashion and the environment into one dream job trying to create a more sustainable lifestyle within the fashion industry.
MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Anika: Since I work at a tech start-up which is very different than an already established company, I have learned much about trial and error, redirecting ideas quickly, and how to properly manage my tasks, ideas, and time all on my own. Since it is a small team of us most of the work and ideas for marketing, advertising, and email marketing fall into me, which can be great as I get more creative freedom but a little bit tricky as a new grad who could still use some guidance.
MHH: Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?
Anika: I would love to work for Condé Nast or anything under the LVMH umbrella.
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Anika: To slow down! Through college I was always working on the next step of my career and taking on multiple jobs/internships at a time, which is great to do, but I also wish I enjoyed being an actual college student a bit more rather than trying to rush into my career/ next step. Everything will come on it’s own time, so just be patient.
Nadia Trimnell (prev. Brand Director at Freestyle World)
Open to Opportunities in Orlando, FL or Remote
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!
Nadia: I’m a marketing and creative enthusiast with 6 years of experience in various roles, including channel marketing, brand management, and product marketing. I’m a fan of using data and analytics to back up my gut instincts, and I’m pretty handy with e-mail marketing, lead generation, e-commerce, and social media. My real passion, though, is in all things creative, design, and making ideas come to life, from the initial spark of inspiration right through to the final product.
MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Nadia: I’ve been successful in my career because I trust my instincts. I’ve learned that I’m never the smartest person in the room, but I know what I want. I listen to people or data, and then challenge myself.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role?
Nadia: Something creative and playful!
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?

Open to Opportunities in NYC, New Haven/Stamford, CT, or Remote
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!

MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Ryan: In my most recent role, I had the opportunity of creating a go-to-market strategy template and plan for our first real product launch.

MHH: What are you looking for in a future role? Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?
Ryan: I really enjoyed my work in product marketing, and am hoping to return to that area of marketing within my next role. That being said, I am a huge lover of music and my dream company is Spotify! I'm a big fan of their company culture and hoping to "join the band" one day!
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Ryan: Good things take time. A mistake that I made in the past was creating timelines and expectations for myself that weren't necessarily obtainable in the moment. With experience and patience, you'll find exactly what you need at the right time!
Skyelar Dunn (prev. Brand & Marketing Manager at Farmhouse Inn)
Open to Remote or Contract Opportunities
MHH: Tell us briefly about your career thus far!
Skyelar: I have 8 years of experience in digital and email marketing across the hospitality, service and CPG industries. I have a passion for strategic email marketing and am looking for clients who need help reaching their audiences creatively and effectively!
MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Skyelar: Don't rule out the 'dishwashers' so to speak. Everyone can have creative ideas and they should share them and feel heard! Teamwork from every part of the business makes the dream work.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role? Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?

MHH: In your most recent role, what was a valuable lesson you learned that you’ll take with you into your next role?
Natalie: In my previous role as a marketing consultant for Wild Thing Restaurant Group, I recognized the effectiveness of developing a detailed project plan for long-term goals as well as the importance of setting daily goals individually and as a team. This improved my teamwork, delegation, and feedback-seeking skills.
MHH: What are you looking for in a future role? Are there any dream companies you’d like to work for?
Natalie: I don't have a dream job - rather, I'd love to lead a purposeful career. I'm searching for roles where I can engage in social impact work as well as companies that understand a healthy work/life balance.
MHH: What's something you know now that you wish you knew earlier on in your career?
Natalie: Throughout my career, I've learned that you are entirely in the right to (and should) advocate for your own well-being in the workplace; demeaning or inappropriate behavior is just that - inappropriate.

The brand's commitment to presenting these facets in an elegantly cohesive package aligns seamlessly with my own aspirations.

It's essential to strike a balance between efficiency and meticulousness, as the quality of work speaks volumes.
