Second application submitted to #Block 😊
App 1: People Strategy & Planning Lead @ CashApp on 04/12 => Portal Status says New. No movement toward In Review.
App 2: Executive Assistant to Block COO & CFO Ahunja on 4/30.
It’s cool that in the portal you can share a message. Here’s what mine said this time;
Dear COO & CFO Ahunja,
My name is Angela Johnson and I value the opportunity to contend for the position of your Executive Assistant within the Executive Operations team at Block, Inc. I have 12 years of professional experience supporting C-Suite executives. During 6 of those years, I routinely underwent, and successfully passed, extensive Federal Bureau of Investigation background checks in order to obtain the security clearance necessary to conduct business.
At this point in my life, I seek to work within an ecosystem for the duration of my career. I came to learn about the ecosystem at Block, Inc. from the open source protocol NOSTR and through personal study of public materials. The opportunity to support your leadership within Block, Inc. as your Executive Assistant would be a meaningful next step in my professional career. Block’s companywide values would also allow me to achieve a long held aspiration of mine; becoming a Black female homeowner.
As the daughter of first-generation interracially wed parents, the sister of a performing artist who is proudly queer, and the granddaughter of a wartime veteran, my biggest personal strength is that I recognize the humanity of all people and my actions will always reflect the aforementioned. I live with an acute understanding that time is not guaranteed and approach each day with presence, grace, honesty, and dedication to purpose driven work.
Upon review of my resume you’ll find that in recent years I became a small business owner. It was a goal that I’m proud of having achieved, though am equally glad to step away from, in order to work toward the professional and personal next steps that I reference above.
It would be an honor to speak with you in an interview setting.
