Reflection on First Year on YouTube and FREE CAREER COACHING SESSIONS!

cwong0102Leave a comment

It’s been about a year since I started officially on YouTube as a tech and career YouTube channel, and I learned a lot! In this reflection, I focused less on being a YouTuber but more on lessons I learned throughout the journey after helping hundreds find jobs in tech consulting. I also recently pivoted away from paid group coaching sessions (I still do my 1-on-1 paid sessions), and now doing 1-on-1s for free on my channel! I also spoke about what I plan on doing in the future as well which include the free coaching sessions! Whether or not you’re interested in tech consulting or not! Watch to learn how you can get one!

This is Our Experience as Asian Americans | Stop Racism

cwong0102Leave a comment

With what’s going on with the Asian American community, it saddens us to hear all of the harassment and assaults aimed at the Asian American Pacific Islander community. We wanted to bring to light about our own experiences as Asian Americans for you to learn about how it’s like living in the US, the prejudices and racism we experienced, the “model minority” myth, and how we feel on where we belong. We do not represent the entire Asian American population, but these are our personal experiences as Asian Americans!

All ad revenue will be donated to Asian Americans Advancing Justice as my employer, Accenture, is matching a dollar to each dollar.

DAY IN MY LIFE AS A TECH CONSULTANT | I tried the Pomodoro Technique as a Consultant. Does it work?

cwong0102Leave a comment

Trying something new and I was curious if the Pomodoro technique could work with a consultant’s lifestyle! I was skeptical, but this is what happened! This is a day in my life as a tech consultant at Accenture, and a very accurate and no fluff vlog at that too!

To those who don’t know what the Pomodoro technique is, it’s a time management method to work in focused, 25-minute intervals with short breaks of 5 minutes. This may work for many, and this may also not work for many!

I GIVE MY BOYFRIEND A HAIRCUT: So How Much Does He Know About Me?

cwong0102Leave a comment

I’ve been cutting Addison’s hair a lot due to the pandemic, but at a certain point, I got tired, so he tried cutting it himself. He actually cut a BIT too much at one point on the side of his head, but I was like why don’t I do it BUT let’s make a video out of it where we see how much he knows about me! It’s actually intended to ask these questions in a fun way so you can learn a little bit more about me!

For each time he got it right, he would get one minute of haircut (30 seconds if partially right), and for each time he got it wrong, I would just keep asking questions about me. How well do you think he did and how was the haircut?

The Different Tracks of Technology Consulting | Functional vs. Technical Consulting

cwong0102Leave a comment

A common misconception about technology consulting is that you need to know how to code or program or you need a technical background, but it’s more of a spectrum between business and technology. There are multiple tracks within technology consulting: there is functional consulting which is more on the management consulting spectrum, and there is technical consulting which is more on the technology spectrum, but both are needed for a successful project.

So you’re a new consultant or you’re interested in consulting and not sure how to handle difficult client questions and situations. What should you be doing? What do you do if you don’t know the answer? I share methods and strategies that my colleagues have used to make sure you can still uphold professionalism while maintaining the trust with your clients!

It’s very important to to sharpen these skills because client facing skills are so important, much more than your actual business and technical acumen because if the client doesn’t like or trust you, there’s nothing you can show them!

My Boyfriend Asks Me COMPTIA A+ IT Technical Questions! | ARE ALL TECH CONSULTANTS TECH SAVVY?

cwong0102Leave a comment

It is here! Time for me to be the one to get humiliated!

My Boyfriend Asks Me COMPTIA A+ IT Technical Questions! Last time, I quiz my computer science boyfriend about business. We are both technology consultants at Accenture, but there are technical and functional consultants. My boyfriend, Addison Chen, is a technical consultant and only knows techie stuff. I think this is hilarious to watch because most people assume technology consultants know everything about tech and IT support, and this will debunk it all!

Make sure to watch the video when I quiz Addison on business because functional consultants actually need that business knowledge to work and communicate with the client better!
