Whether you’re a new esthetician, moving to a new area, or starting over in your career, this episode walks through the real steps of finding the right job, preparing for interviews, and presenting yourself in a way that feels polished, professional, and memorable. Drawing from her experience as a business owner who hires, interviews, and trains, Kati shares what employers are really looking for and the mistakes that can keep talented people from getting noticed.

She talks through where to look for jobs, how to research a business before applying, what to include on a beauty industry resume, and why details like references, headshots, and a simple portfolio can make a huge difference. This episode is practical, honest, and especially helpful for anyone trying to get their foot in the door or position themselves for the next level.

The Takeaway
Getting hired in the beauty industry is not just about your license. It is about how you present yourself, how well you prepare, and how clearly you show that you care. A little strategy goes a long way.
