  • Summary

  • For those of us who have practically lived on LinkedIn, Indeed, and the like as we've hunted for our next career opportunity, it might be a little deflating to discover that we could have been doing more, specifically with a mentor. LinkedIn Career Expert Andrew McCaskill joins Living Not So Fabulously hosts David & John Auten-Schneider to shed light on how jobseeker's can approach finding the right mentor and how your wallet might suffer without one. "I think that one of the things that mentorship has taught me is that I don't think about my compensation as just like the cash," McCaskill explains, suggesting people look at bonuses, salary, and equity on top of total compensation; as well as, what he called, "off the offer letter benefits." This includes financial benefits like your employer paying off student loan repayment, funding continued education like certificates, and even fertility care. And it's mentorship that can help you get there. "So many of those things are when we can, when we leave money on the table, if you have a mentor inside of the machine, inside of your organization... if they've been there longer, they will tell you about it," McCaskill says. McCaskill further emphasizes that mentors add value to your life in a multitude of ways, and that, at the end of the day, "the number one rule of mentorship is this person rooting for me to win." Hosts and husbands of Living Not So Fabulously, David & John Auten-Schneider, dive into real money stories with activists, allies, artists, tech-gurus, and trailblazers in the LGBTQ+ community to give you tangible takeaways to tackle your wallet woes.
