I finally did it — I GOT A JOB. After months of searching in one of the toughest markets we've seen in years, I’m walking you through exactly what I did to land a role I’m excited about (and how I didn’t settle just to survive). From the raw reality of endless applications (you know the vibe) to the practical steps that moved the needle, this is everything I wish I’d heard at the start of my job hunt!

What we discussed:
  • What the job market is actually like right now (stats + stories)
  • The truth behind 50+ applications and only a few real leads
  • How a Notion portfolio and LinkedIn overhaul changed the game
  • The difference between sending a CV and building a presence
  • Strategic vs. scattergun applications — what worked best
  • The income goal I set and how I stuck to it (even when it felt risky)
  • How building community sped up the process — and kept me sane

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
