Subscribe to Field Notes, our fortnightly career letter
New Feature
Girasol exists to put practical career advice within reach, so we built a place to send it. Field Notes gathers what our writers and recruiters published over the past two weeks into one short read.
Each edition lands in your inbox on alternate Thursdays with hand-picked articles, hiring trends worth watching, and a summary that takes about 12 minutes end to end. Sign up here and we’ll see you Thursday.

Rehearsal Room brings live interview practice to Girasol
New Feature
Open “Rehearsal Room” from your dashboard and you can work through 340 sample interviews across sales, engineering, care work and public sector roles — including question sets pulled from specific employers.
Answer out loud in the recorder, keep an eye on the timer, then read a per-question breakdown of what landed and what to tighten. Practise until it stops feeling like a performance.

The blog has a new name: welcome to The Ascent
Update
Our writing archive is now called The Ascent, a name that matches what the pieces are actually for: getting from where your career is to where you want it next.
Alongside the name we rebuilt the reading pages — illustrated headers, cleaner typography, and browsing by topic, role or seniority instead of one long reverse-chronological wall.
