Hello everyone! I am a Judicial Law Clerk, which I have been for a little over two years now. However, I’m planning on moving into the AML/Compliance realm. I have a background in finance, having been a Finance Disbursing Officer in the Army for 6 years with one deployment in that role. Additionally, I am currently a JAG attorney and studying for my CAMS, hoping to take that exam in the next month or two. Any advice or referrals for anyone I can talk to learn more about the field? Thanks! :)

Is it totally weird to request another meeting after getting a job offer to make sure it's a right fit? 🤔

I've noticed that sometimes I still have lingering questions. ❔

I've been burnt out by toxic work environments, so I don't want to make another mistake. 🙄

How would you handle this logistics of this meeting? (Timing - after the offer but with time before you start? How to phrase the reason why?)

Thanks! 🔅☺️

Hi all!

I’m a mid-level B2B marketing leader looking for new opportunities due to a shift in culture at my current company.

Although I am well versed across marketing categories, my main focus over the past few years has been on ABM, pipeline growth, and aligning sales and marketing. I also have experience in both early stage and Series C high-growth startups as well as global companies.

If you know of an opportunity that might be a good fit, I’d love to have a conversation!

I had a student tell me that he was learning more English by playing a Clue-like game called, Among Us. He asked if I could host a game for the class.
