Hey! I Want Your Job!

Every industry has folks that the rest of us look at and think "wow, they're amazing!"  Amy Miller is one of those for must of us in recruitment.  Not only is she great at her job, but she has plenty of experience working for some of the biggest names out there.  Ok, I'll say it, she's a FAANG super star.  Amy is determined, though, to use her status and influence for good.  She's part of the LinkedIn group summoned with #jobseekerguardians who are seasoned recruiters determined to eliminate misinformation, scare tactics, and snake oil sales people trying to prey on the desperation of job seekers.  She produces a weekly AMA series on YouTube where she tries to demystify recruitment, and clarify what it ACTUALLY takes to get a job in the current market.  

Her merch is delightful, and reflects her sassy "screw you" vibe.  Also, 100% of profits go to help support animals in need (so you KNOW all the ladies of O&H have shirts and are repping!).  She's better at explaining herself than this fan girl, so here's her official bio:

I’m on a mission to bust myths about my crazy industry.

Way back in 1998 I walked into a staffing agency for a job interview, dressed up in a polyester knockoff suit and shaking like a leaf. I just wanted to be a receptionist, maybe get into some kind of admin work. Anything would be better than chasing toddlers in my preschool teacher gig. Little did I know recruiting would grab ahold of me and never let go.

Fast forward more than 20 years – I’ve been a big tech recruiter in the greater Seattle area (Microsoft / Google / Amazon) since 2013. I’ve devoted countless hours to creating free content all about empowering job seekers so they can land their next role faster and with less frustration.
