While the recruiters never buys that I’m a leader that can guide, mentor and develop a group of persons, I do:
- I’m a leader while I’m teaching.
- Guided hundreds of undergrad students from 1st sem to the last to develop their tech skills.
- Guided at least 100 students on their masters.
- I’m a leader while directing a thesis
- Guided a handful of students on their own research, each one of them picking me from other of students.
- I’m a leader while I’m tutoring my students
- Around 20 students picked me for guiding them through all their careers, most of them now works on the important IT companies on the country.
- Most importantly: I’m my own leader.
- If I can’t be my own leader, I cannot guide anybody else.
Too bad this doesn’t count for IT Recruiter, because I also act as a PM for this.
