Ever catch yourself thinking:
"Is my resume actually formatted well?" 🤔
"Did I say the wrong thing in my interview last week?" 😓
"How can I adapt my time management plan for online school?" 😐
Look no further: there's a community of learners ready to welcome you! The Rumie community (hosted on Discord) is for just that: supporting each other on career and life skills topics you may not have learned in school!
What's Rumie? We're a tech nonprofit and charity on a mission to make learning accessible with our free virtual library of Bytes. More on Rumie here.
What's a Byte? A ~5 minute mini-lesson about soft skills: you're reading one right now! Bytes always include suggestions on how to take action in real life. More on Bytes here.
Not sure how Discord works? There's a Byte for that too!
