About this episode

You’ve been in your new job for a few months, and you get a calendar invite for a meeting with your boss and HR - PANIC. The probation review meeting after your first 3 -6 months in a new job can be nerve-wracking. What is this meeting all about, and how can you nail it?

In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma cover what you need to know about probation review meetings, and most importantly how to prepare!

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Mitch who shouted us a coffee! “You ladies are seriosuly amazing!! I've listened to every single episode now!!! Even when there's an episode that isn't necessarily relevant to my situation I listen anyway and end up learning so much. You've really helped build my confidence after years of stalling and resistance to refreshing my CV and thinking of examples, but after listening to your podcast I've slowly gained the motivation and confidence to do so! Shoot my shot is now my motto. I submitted an application for a new field recently (HR!!) having worked in policy for many years. Fingers crossed they see my skills are transferrable and I get to the interview stage xx Thanks again!!”
