In this fifth episode of the Green Collar Careers Podcast, Jose Almanzar interviewed Lauren Celano, the Founder and CEO of Propel Careers.
Propel Careers is a life science search and career development firm focused on connecting talented individuals with startup and entrepreneurial life sciences companies. Lauren has recruited for dozens of the nation's most innovative life sciences organizations to help them hire talent. As part of her work, she has also coached thousands of students, postdocs, medical residents and professionals to advance their careers.
During this interview, Lauren and Jose discuss her educational and professional background, how the life sciences intersect with environmental issues, and how she helps people at all stages of their careers land their dream jobs.
Lauren also shares incredible insights and practical advice for job seekers, like setting up your personal "board of advisors", tips on how to effectively "cold outreach" for informational interviews, and how to find your calling by doing an exercise she calls"loved it/loathed it".
Lauren really dropped fantastic knowledge for all of us in this interview. I think you're going to love it!
