Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 28/05/2024So, you got to the very end of a recruiting process that ultimately didn't work out, but months later, you see the company is still looking to fill the role you applied to. How chaotic is it to apply to the job? Asking for a friend. 040

I understand why some people hate it and us, voice-note-lovers, need to be mindful. But show me two people sending literal podcasts to each other on the daily and I'll show you a friendship. 150

Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 14/02/2024Hi! So, I'm not new here, but this is new! I'm not just a journalist: I'm also sort of an artist (impostor syndrome doesn't allow me to use just "artist"). I'm gonna start sharing my work here, so let me know if you like it <3 You can find more at www.instagram.com/sketchyguti/ 020

Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 01/02/2024What's the point of offering "senior" positions when you're asking for 2 years of experience and offering 50K? 110

Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 31/01/2024You guys: "Senior editor" doesn't mean hiring one person to do five jobs for the price of a well-paid associate editor. 100
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 31/01/2024Hi there, skeeters! Still looking for someone who can talk to me about their experience with environmental isolation (aka, you WFH a lot or are still self-isolating for medical reasons). Have you had brain fog? I'd love to ask you a couple of questions! 000
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 31/01/2024Getting old is having the old carcass threaten you with an epic migraine if you dare to stay in bed past 9am. I honestly think it's extremely rude. 020
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 29/01/2024Unemployment will make you do stupid shit. Like, convincing yourself that you don't have the money for a haircut (I don't, but I also don't need one), that no, using tiny eyebrow scissors is also not such a bad idea, and that you should go for it. 110
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 24/01/2024Also, if you know of anybody in similar conditions, share this with them. Or re-skeet this (are we still saying that?). It'll be greatly appreciated. 000
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 24/01/2024Hi there! I'm writing a story about environmental isolation (AKA staying for a long time in one place) and brain fog. Are you isolating because you're immunocompromised? Are you WFH and you're not good at leaving your place anyway? Could I ask you a couple of questions? PLEASE AND THANK YOU! 010

Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 28/11/2023This is so heartbreaking. I'll forever treasure the work done by the awesome team behind PopSci during the 4 years I had the honor of being an editor there. I know that we should be desensitized by now, but it's truly a sad day for media and science journalism. www.theverge.com/2023/11/27/2... 010
Sandra Gutiérrez @sandyguti.bsky.social · 14/11/2023So, I got laid off today after more than 4 years working at PopSci. It's incredibly sad and frustrating, but I got the chance to work with some awesome people. I'll be looking for editorial/content creation positions in the future so if you know of something, please hmu 🙌🏼 0236
