"Here is an incredible Gmail tip"

In case you’re new here, CCing my EA is a bite-sized newsletter by Vimcal EA dedicated to Executive Assistants like yourself.
Every Thursday, we deliver a quick email with 5 new job listings, 3 fun posts, and 1 helpful tech tip straight to your inbox. 📬
5 new job listings
We only post jobs under 7 days old, but some may expire before you open this email.
Yesterday’s live resume workshop with Sydney Morris of N+1 Search (EA recruiting specialist) went so well that we're making it a 3-part series!
Live resume feedback
How to network with recruiters (DMs, cover letters, emails)
How to prep for your interview
We’re expecting to do it on Wednesday March 11th at 11am ET and I’ll share RSVP details in next week’s newsletter, so look out for that! 👀
Important note: We only shared the recording with those who registered because there was a lot of super personal information (like phone numbers, emails, etc.) that we don’t want exposed publicly.
3 posts you might’ve missed
#1
Any readers out there have both EA and VEA experience? I'd love to know what you felt the major differences were between the two roles. 💼
#2
There’s a 100% chance some poor EA has come back from “vacation” to a literal fire caused by their exec. 🔥
#3
I work for Vimcal, so I’m inherently biased, but this is way bigger than just selling a product.
I keep hearing the same thing from disheartened EAs: they’re blocked by IT/budget from trying Vimcal EA, and they don’t even bring it up with their execs because they already know they’ll be dismissed.
That shouldn't be normal… and yeah, it also makes my job harder. 😤

I’ll let the following Threads post do all the talking this week:

For a refresher on past Tech Tips without digging through your emails, they’re all available in a single post right here (updated once a month).
Thank you for reading!
I started writing a “How many EAs does it take to change a lightbulb?” joke here but I liked it so much that I’m gonna save it as a LinkedIn post on Monday.
I honestly can’t wait lmaooo 😂
I’ll catch you next Thursday~
