49 Founding Nutrition Jobs and Educating about Resumes, Job Interviews and LinkedIn, with Stacey Dunn-Emke
Stacey Dunn-Emke is a qualified dietitian and the founder of nutritionjobs.com, which is an incredible resource for fellow nutritionists and dieticians. This week we learn how Stacey grew Nutrition Jobs from a job board to the extensive job and resume database that it is today. Along with this, Nutrition Jobs has evolved to educate nutritionists and dietitians about how to optimise their resume, ace their job interviews, stand out on LinkedIn (among other things). Along with sharing her past job experiences and the journey of building her business, Stacey gives us so many practical tips that it’s more of a masterclass than a podcast interview!
