I saw some sales managers discussing hiring strategies, especially for entry level roles (e.g. SDR, BDR).

One strategy that came up was having the applicant do 90 minutes of cold calling into real prospects with the hiring manager coaching.

What do you think of this approach? Would be curious to hear from both hiring manager perspectives and from candidate perspectives.

I work for a nightmare of a CHRO. 100% bottom-line, 0% empathy. My husband and I decided to move out of state (back to where we are from) with a job lined up.

Can anyone offer advice for workplace retaliation and what is considered a hostile work environment? I believe the HR DIRECTOR is trying to force an employee out because she doesn’t like him. What’s happening isn’t fair and it’s an abuse of power. This is a state government agency.

I have pretty bad anxiety to the point where it affects my job performance and will cause me to waste hours because I'm trying to cope with symptoms. I hate that xanax works so well and am terrified of getting addicted to it. Wasted 2 hours this morning panicking and thinking I was about to have a heart attack or something stupid, then I took a xanax and drank some tea and I'm super focused again and my productivity is way up. Anyone else take xanax? I usually only do like 2x a week.
