Dealt with your situation at my old firm. I'd say try to be as upfront as possible with communication and try to build your personal relationship with them. If you have a good personal relationship, it's normally easier to have honest conversations. Outside of that, Glenmorangie Signet is a good drink to ease the stress.

REPOST: Hello Everyone! I was recently laid off by Armanino because they did the audit for FTX and they're getting sued so they laid off a bunch of their staff.

I financially help support my family so this is very unfortunate for me. My resume is below. Thank you all!

Love suggestions / advice: If I were to add some certification or anything to set my resume apart would it even make a difference in my job search at this point. I have my Masters in Strategy. Currently at 13 years exp. Been a people leader. I’m certified in Marketo. I’d like to move up to a director role, but getting nowhere and no bites lately on my resume. Should I add a SFDC certification? Would a PMP make me more qualified? Is this all a waste of time? Something else?

Hello marketing ladies!

I've got a final interview round with a case study/presentation lined up for a marketing director role.

I'm currently a demand gen director - this specific marketing director role will overlook product, content, digital and all things to drive pipeline.

Some of the bits in the case study seem interesting - eg.. increase 3x deal size when the goal is to grow 60% YoY (ideally 100% YoY). Also around the point around what the marketing budget should be..

Thanking you!

Started software development apprenticeship around a month ago, for the first few weeks my manager (unaware of the adhd) basically had me sit down and watch videos what he believes are relevant subjects (all during office hours 9-5). I'd basically got to the point where I would get home after the day and have no memory of anything that had happened. I finally got given a real project last week and have learned so much from the practical element of it, he now wants me watching more videos.
