Networking!! Very nice!!! That's actually better than getting the role (apparently ~80% of the available jobs aren't advertised; the only way to get them is networking). You have done very well!! ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

Yeah she is overseas at the moment and wants to catch up for coffee when she gets back. So who knows haha I'm usually terrible at networking.

That sounds very, very promising! She wouldn't do this if she didn't see something in you. I think you'll be fine at this coffee catch up, don't go in with huge expectations or trying to impress, being friendly and curious might be all it takes. Based on what you said about the CEO, this is increasingly sounding like a better outcome anyway... I'd take her positive feedback as a win at the very least.

Thank you. Yeah we'll see what comes of it but honestly not expecting much or getting my hopes up.
