The Keren Elijah Podcast
The Keren Elijah Podcast is about the real-life stories behind business and money. We talk small business, yes, but also love, loss, faith, and family. We explore the messy in-between that shapes how we live, how we spend, and how we build.
This isn’t a “perfect strategy” podcast. It’s a space for real stories, honest lessons, and clarity from life and business, so you feel seen, supported, and reminded that you’re not building alone.

I Didn’t Have Experience — But I Got 3 Job Offers Anyway
Hey friend. Come in and breathe.
This one’s for the girl who’s been applying, crying, praying — and still hearing silence.
For the one who looks at her resume and sees gaps, not glory.
For the woman who’s lived too much life to fit neatly into a LinkedIn box.
In this episode, I take you back to my second year of university — before the branding, before the business. I didn’t have Canadian experience. I didn’t have a referral. I didn’t even know how job placements really worked. But I had pain. I had prayer. I had preparation. And somehow… that was enough.
You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes story of how I got 3 job offers during my co-op search, what I learned about rejection, how I tailored my resume using volunteer work, and why being yourself in an interview still works. No fluff, no hacks — just real-life lessons from the girl who kept showing up.
✨ We talk:
- Volunteering as real experience
- Applying without disqualifying yourself
- Resume tips that actually help
- Interview confidence when you're still unsure
- God's favor in unexpected places
You don’t have to look perfect to be powerful.
And delay is not denial.
Hit play, and let’s talk about it.
