Eva Papoutsakis Smith
Eva Papoutsakis Smith is a co-founder of The Hired Side (www.thehiredside.com), a career coaching program that teaches college students and young adults how to position themselves, articulate their value, and sell themselves in a challenging job market.
Eva has spent her career focused on one discipline – winning in the market. As a Chief Revenue Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, and General Manager at Microsoft, Pinterest, The Weather Channel, Integral Ad Science, Ziff Davis, and Mediaocean, she has built and led sales and marketing organizations, trained hundreds of professionals, and spent years on the other side of the interview table making hiring decisions. That experience drives what she teaches today – learning to sell yourself is not a personality trait. It is a methodology, and students who learn it early gain a huge competitive edge in today’s job market. Eva holds an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and dual B.S. degrees in Economics and Communications from Cornell University.
