Office Hours: Asking for a Raise and More

This week on Office Hours, we talk about the power of daily challenges and answer four listener questions:

  • How do I get a job after a failed startup?
  • How do you answer a question about weaknesses in an interview?
  • I’ve been at my job for three years and my boss has never brought up a raise, is this bad?
  • I have so much to do and I feel overwhelmed and don’t get started. How do I start working towards my goals?
