In Will Farrell’s words Nancy Berger Cardone is “kind of a big deal”. However, if you take a look at her resume, in other words Google her, you’ll soon find out “kind of a big deal” is more of an understatement. She’s worked for magazines such as Allure, Gourmet, and Vanity Fair to name a few. Now you can catch her on the flip side (seriously, turn the page) right on top of your Marie Claire masthead reigning as Publisher, Vice President, & Chief Revenue Officer.

Find out how to get your foot in the door at a major magazine from the pro herself along with hearing her opinion on fashion bloggers, media, & the dirty or rather polished dish on being a publisher. For those of you who are dying for the chance to hear what it’s actually like to work at a magazine or patiently awaiting that hopeful Hail Mary e-mail you recently sent out, take a break from clicking refresh every 5 minutes and instead listen to tips from the girl herself. She just might know a thing or two about making it to the top, no pun intended!
