✨2026 VIRTUAL SUMMIT
The tech job market is shifting and the playbook for growing your career is changing with it. On April 30th, we’re hosting a half-day virtual summit focused on helping you navigate today’s market with clarity and confidence.
You’ll get:
• Practical AI upskilling strategies
• Insights from recruiters on what actually gets candidates hired
• Small-group networking with other women in tech
• Direct access to hiring teams through employer booths
The best HR advice comes from people who’ve been in the trenches.
That’s what this newsletter delivers.
I Hate it Here is your insider’s guide to surviving and thriving in HR, from someone who’s been there. It’s not about theory or buzzwords — it’s about practical, real-world advice for navigating everything from tricky managers to messy policies.
Every newsletter is written by Hebba Youssef — a Chief People Officer who’s seen it all and is here to share what actually works (and what doesn’t). We’re talking real talk, real strategies, and real support — all with a side of humor to keep you sane.
Because HR shouldn’t feel like a thankless job. And you shouldn’t feel alone in it.
