If you're a Teacher and you're looking to avoid being forced back into classrooms and being exposed to COVID-19. Consider transitioning to a career in Tech. Education Technology or EdTech is a BOOMING industry that needs educators with classroom experience.
Some EdTech Jobs:

Several different ways to flip the script on Recruiters when they ask you “What’s the salary you’re targeting” so you dont low ball yourself in an interview
“Happy to have that conversation, can you share what the role is budgeted for?”
“I’m more focused on finding the right fit and opportunity. I’m confident we can land on a number that reflects the value I bring.”
Here’s the blueprint I walk my clients through when they want to start landing consistent interviews — two to three a month — without wasting time on hope-based strategies.
We start by picking three job titles that actually make sense for their current skills and work history. Then we build three versions of their resume, one for each role
No rewriting the resume for every application. No running prompts through ChatGPT hoping for the best. They only apply to jobs that check their four boxes: salary, title, job type, and location. If a posting doesn’t hit all four, they move on.
From there, we treat it like a sales process.
Find jobs early.
Most people are applying too late. If a job’s been live for over a week, the first round of interviews is probably already booked.
To find fresh listings, I show them how to search company career pages directly through Google:
Prepare for Common Interview Questions: Questions like "Tell me about yourself," "Where do you see yourself in five years?" and "What's your biggest weakness?" are commonly asked. Prepare for them.
A thread on how to answer them.
"Tell me about yourself"
Think of answering this as "Why are you here" and keep it professional: This is not an invitation to share your life story or personal details. Stick to discussing your professional background, experiences, and skills relevant to the job.
Highlight key accomplishments. Discuss some of your biggest professional achievements that demonstrate your ability to do the job.
Be concise: Aim for a response that's no more than one to two minutes long.
If your resume still sounds like a job description, that’s your first problem.
Here’s how to use the XYZ formula to flip weak, vague bullets into cold, hard proof that you get results. Let’s talk about what it is, how to use it right, and how to diversify your metrics so every line hits.
This is how I write Resumes.
This is for people who are tired of blending in.
What’s the XYZ formula?
It’s simple:
Did X
by doing Y
which resulted in Z
That’s it.
It forces you to be clear about your impact, not just your responsibilities. No fluff. No filler. Just results.
And I need to say this loud and clear:
Stop leaning on percentages like they’re the only way to show value.
Every bullet on your resume shouldn’t end in “increased by X%” or “reduced by Y%.”
Work smarter, not harder. Use ChatGPT to tailor your resume for each job—and do it using the XYZ formula for maximum impact.
What’s the XYZ formula?
Peep game. 🧵
It’s the secret sauce Google uses for evaluating candidates. The formula goes like this:
“Accomplished [X] by doing [Y], resulting in [Z].”
This works because it keeps your achievements specific, measurable, and tied to real outcomes.
It forces you to think beyond tasks and focus on the actual impact you’ve made. Hiring managers love this because it makes your contributions tangible and easy to evaluate.
