In this episode of Get Hired, LinkedIn Editor Andrew Seaman speaks with comedian Zarna Garg about her unconventional journey from lawyer to stay-at-home mom to stand-up comic. Zarna opens up about discovering her passion later in life, coping with failure and the power of being relentlessly honest. She also shares advice for up-and-coming entrepreneurs about the importance of persistence, analysis and salesmanship — traits she still uses as a comic. 

Key Topics:

Reinventing yourself after failure

How to spot a viable business

Why transparency builds trust

Building a support system from the ground up

The importance of learning how to sell
