Any advice on how to get to know my team? I’ve been in my role for a year now. I hardly talk to my team and vice versa. It’s strange bc outside of work I’m social af. I started questioning if finance is even for me or if I’m just not a fit, but I would like to try before jumping ship.

I’m job searching right now and applied for a job I was a little overqualified for just to shoot my shot and get my foot in the door with a great brand. The hiring mgr took the time to email me to tell me I was overqualified and offered to help me get connected to his network. He’s been so kind and helpful and I’m kind of in shock at his generosity. Even if an offer doesn’t come from it, is it weird if I send him a Starbucks gift card or something as a thank you? What’s appropriate?

Some of the white generational wealth I've seen as a financial advisor is actually scary.
