Hi Rachel,
I remember at the beginning of this Vlogmas you said you landed at your job at AG because you wanted to redirect your profession into something that isn't so self-serving. I totally understood that logic, but I also wanted to take a moment to praise your online identity as That's Chic and explain how it's had an impact on my life in hopes you realize that your content really makes an impact.
I'm graduating from college in May, but more recently made the adult transition of first at living alone at college without parents, and then moving into an apartment without the structure an on-campus life provides. Somewhere over the past year of watching your videos I realized I loved them so much, especially your vlogs, because it showed me what it's like to live as an adult. The burdens of taking care of myself--grocery shopping, making time for friends, errands, etc.--those are all things that I realized I just had to do, and I did them, but I also realized I had no idea what an adult life really looks like. I see my parents, but they're much older than me. My friends and I can talk about the transition, but it's not really something I see action by action.
So, needless to say, your content has had a really big impact on me during this transitional moment of my life. Your laughs, your low points, even things that you might think are mundane like watching you get ready or make your bed, they're all glimpses that have kept me stable. Also, I love seeing your days at AG in a desk job, as it provides a base for what to expect as I enter my corporate job.
I realized I kind of just talked about myself a lot, which I hate doing, but all in hopes of providing some positive energy and to reinforce to you that your channel and blog isn't totally self-serving; it's truly impactful.
Happy New Year, babe!

Fuck i think i just cried thank you for all of this. This. I needed to hear. Thank you for being here, thank you for sharing, thank you for spreading love. I am honored to be a part of your growth and thankful for your viewership. Wishing you all the luck in your beautiful transition!!! It only gets better and better :)
I totally agree. ❤️
thank you so much for your transparency rachel!
your skin looks so fresh and pretty
I used to help my manager sort through resumes and I'm currently helping my brother with all his resumes. It's 100% everything you're saying. They should be bold, concise, and well researched. Even little things like knowing who the hiring manager or specific person who is going to be reading your resume is helpful. Many jobs also using a scanning system in that they scan for certain words in your resume and only look at resumes that have a high percentage of the words they're looking for. If you know someone who was hired for a similar job, it definitely helps to ask to look at their resume. Being resourceful is a big key to landing a good job.
Yes! Or even looking at similar job listings to see what they're asking for can help word your skills... is a great little loop :)
You furiously spraying the anti-stress fragrance is literally mood 😂.
Your skin looks so fresh and glowy! It would be so great to see a video on your full skincare routine / make up routine / products that you liked the most in 2018. Also, Happy New Year to you💕
In academia, there's no room for creative resumes, and the longer it is, the better! I'm just starting out and I feel like it's a pretty toxic environment, it's as if you're no allowed to show youe personality or what makes you unique! You're basically the sum of your career accomplishments
I just got an internship to organise an open air film festival this summer! I’m so excited about it :)
that's awesome!!! how did you get it? what do you do now and why did you choose to go into film festival? what will you be doing? x
Rachel Nguyen I’m in uni for screenwriting and just adore the medium film, so I wanted to do an internship that combined that with a business component? I sent them an email asking if they accept interns, then I sent them my CV and got invited for an interview! I’ll be part of the committee selecting the films that will be shown and I’ll also help with PR for the festival. On top of that I’ll be at the screenings to interview directors and cast members :)
What an amazing experience! You're gonna have so much fun, definitely highlights the cons of focusing on what you want and reaching out for it. Don't forget us when you're famous and super busy!!!!!!!!! We wanna hear about your experience! xx
Rachel Nguyen ❤️❤️❤️
Can you do a whole career video? Maybe include resume styles and formats?
Hey Raych!! I’m Hasrat from London. I’m so grateful for discovering your channel 3 years ago and absolutely adore you and your blogs and content. Hands down one of the most creative and beautifully edited and curated UA-cam channels. Have a great 2019!!!!
Happy New Year! Love hearing your career advice but agree re: self development! Would love to see a video on self development practices or goals you have! Def something I want to focus on for 2019
I like how you pointed out self-growth is super important as well (and probably flows into the specific areas one may be trying to improve like relationships and career). Since living outside of the US for the moment, it seems so obvious and depressing how so many Americans still think that success is being a badass in business and making bank but then wonder why they're still unhappy. And take shitty health insurance for granted when health insurance that you can actually use is a right in other developed countries, even if you're a freelancer. It's depressing hearing my friends matter of factly say they can't take time off for a vacation until April because they just started a job or relish taking 4 days off for the first time in 4 months. That paid work lunches are a perk rather than mandatory.
And that so many of us just take it as fact that we don't have these basic human dignities! And think that we're "free."
thank you so much about the “inquire for a full work experience.” I never knew that was an option.
Shoutout to personal growth! 🙌
I really liked your A to the QoD!! I took some notes! I instantly thought of another cool way to structure my cover letter. And also you verbalizing that each and every one of us is only one of hundreds sometimes thousands of applicants kind of eased the sting of rejection, lol. Sometimes "being small," is a good thing. Part of the collective. I'm such a creative, willing, and open person who has worked extremely ruthlessly on my self worth so I am truly hoping that comes through energetically as I am sending these resumes, and soon! Really want to start at a new space this January ^_^
Where's the school link for the exclusive videos youre doing with them starting Jan 8th? I really wanted to join-- especially for the bullet journal part
Omg yes! Here it is: www.schoolbykp.com/p/rachel_nguyen
I love your professional advice! Quick q: what's the best way to follow up after you've sent in your application/resume/cover letter without seeming too annoying?
Great question! I think first acknowledging a person for their time and maybe something they are going through (shows your thoughtfulness), along with a gentle reminder you exist, ask if the position has been filled yet, because you Be specific on how you want to help and add value. Ex:
Hi xxx,
Hope you are well as I know it's a busy time of the year
This is wonderful. Thank you so much!
self growth is very important, the process of becoming the person you yourself would hire. thank you for that reminder. also have been applying to hundredddds of jobs and have heard back from like 2 -- your CC was so helpful. my resume is so wordy and tries to be so impressive, not enough focus on the design or boldness of it. thank you rachel for your wisdom! you are like a fresh breath of air :)
Lovedddd the CV recommendations, thank you so much!!!!
I updated my resume at 3am this morning, just to get my life in check 👊
Hi Rachel, I've always struggled with figuring out how to display my creativity while also maintaining professionalism, y'know? How do you find that balance?
Everyday motivation , inspiration. Love to watch your videos with my morning coffee. Please do more monthly videos . Love @dajull xx
happy 2019, Rachel! Wish you all the best ♥️
How apt, I'm quite stuck on my cover letters rn, its a bit intimidating and I've been putting them off but gal's gotta eat. Thanks for the push Rach, gr8 insight as always
I’d love to see an example of how to show somebody our work at the top without it being pages or too cumbersome. With styles changing all the time in it sure what is enough, too much, etc. thanks for sharing!
Am I the first one?!!!!!!!!! You r my fav youtuber ever... and I enrolled with your courses on SCHOOL... looking forward to that so much..and .... Happy New Year!!!!
YAY!!!!!!!! I can't wait to see you in class. Thank you for always supporting
@@thatschicblog You are the best....see you soon!!! :D
make another what I eat in a day video ;)
Thank you for answering my question!
Thank you for the thoughtful question! When I was editing, I felt so bad I didn’t say your name and thank you!!! So hi thank you again ❤️❤️❤️
Can relate a lot to ansorbing ppl’s energy. Would be interested to know what your Myerrs Briigs type is :)
ENFP ;)
Woow that’s awesome❣️☀️Now I understand why I’m so drawn to your contents because I’m an INFJ :o) 💕🌈
hello! i'm a career advisor at my university and just something about heavily designed resumes: sometimes when they upload them the design gets all fucked up, also most of the time they run resumes through a machine that picks out key words and phrases so design elements can be obstructive. just be mindful and always use pdf!
good points! maybe a creative page can follow up? but yes, PDF for sure. It's an immediate turn off if a resume comes in via .doc or any other form outside of PDF.
Love you so muchhh♥️♥️♥️♥️
Does anyone know a good place to get ideas for resume templates/designs?:) I’m in nursing and haven’t got the first clue how to format things in an aesthetically pleasing way haha
AHHH!! Finally xD it’s 1:45 AM here Ph haha
I wonder how to be uniquely me
to create and exist without the influence of the outside world
where are your earrings from
Quick question. Do you believe that those incense you burn, the yoga, and crystals have supernatural healing or do you think the mere presence of them incur the changes that happen whether it be physical or spiritual?
Great question! I think they each serve a different purpose - but I don't think it's all 'supernatural'. Incense, to me, onboard the theory of aromatherapy and also bits of smudging. If you think about it, fire is extremely uplifting. We light candles to create an ambiance, we have fires to keep warmth and bring community. They're daily touch points that we don't think about that do shift the energy in some way. Yoga is all about mind and body. Connecting the two in an extremely focused and meditative way helps spiritually to create space, clarity, openness, and deeper understanding of yourself and soul. For me it cancels out all the noise and declutters my soul. I always feel rejuvenated and clear after an hour of yoga. Crystals are very metaphysical. They alter vibrations and we're all made of vibrations. All of the above can open your consciousness to explore and experience something supernatural. I would definitely do the research if you're interested in it!
@@thatschicblog Thank you for the reply!
Hey Rachel, what highlighter were you using in the car? :)
Rms
Hey Rachel, can you tell me where your sofa is from? ❤️
it's vintage! i got from an IG account that I forgot because a friend sent it over. i love it, it's so comfy
Hi Rachel, where are your earrings from?
They're from all over! But maybe the most 'prominent' one is from Marida xx
😄
I disagree with an “outside the box resume”. It should be readable and succinct. Really creative folks have online portfolios instead of featuring it on their resume. Square space looks way better than Wix. I recruited for creative and design at advertising and marketing agencies. Simple and to the point for resumes, creative and well designed for portfolios.
That is true too! Thank you for sharing - definitely depends on who is reading the resumes. But don't you think an overly simplified resume with default text in the industry can easily be looked over when many are designing theirs out? I'd be curious to know what top 3 things stand out to you the most!
