Build In Public Podcast - Episode 11 with Ruben Harris (Co-Founder & CEO of Career Karma)

Episode 11 with Ruben Harris (Co-Founder & CEO of Career Karma)

09/28/21 • 41 min

In this episode, I chatted with a truly special guest who has been a shining example of the philosophy of building in public for years. Ruben Harris is the co-founder and CEO of Career Karma, a platform that helps people find a job training program online to break into the tech industry. Previously, he was the founder and a co-host of the very popular podcast "Breaking Into Startups" and Ruben is a Bay Area transplant from Atlanta, Georgia (where I live now). I've been following his story for a while on Twitter, Instagram, and on podcasts so this interview was years in the making. In this authentic and inspiring chat, we covered several topics like starting mission-driven startups, why every company is a media company and why founders should tell their stories directly themselves by building in public, his Atlanta memories, NBA icons, and more. I had a blast chatting with him and hope you enjoy this!
