I'm a RN who's worked in sales for 14 years within the industrial and energy spaces. Yea, I know, super random for a nurse, but I excelled greatly.

I still work weekends as a nurse and would love to combine my business acumen with my education by working for a pharma, biotech, or medical device company.

I've applied for these types of jobs and get nowhere. But when I apply to engineering organizations I get called immediately.

Anyone recommend any good CPAs? Added bonus if specialized in the area of tax planning.

Hello everyone, I'm into sales with an experience of little over 12 yrs. I'm keen to shift abroad on work opportunity. What should be the right way to go about it and where can I look for jobs?

I'm a Sr. Project Manager and for the next step in my career track, which do you think is better to go for: a Program Manager or a Director of Project Management? I'm based in Atlanta. All thoughts are welcomed.

Have any respiratory therapists found jobs OTHER than being a clinical RT? I want to possibly change careers, but I am finding that a lot of jobs (clinical liason, utilization review, etc) want you to have a nursing degree, not a respiratory degree. I feel like as an RT we are limited to jobs.

How do you get better at Project Management?

IC vs Manager. Are there major pay differences between the two? Right now, I have been offered a Principal Data Architect role which is the same pay as the Sr Mgr. I would be moving from a people manager to more of an IC role. Which is better for long term growth? Do you have to move to people management to move far in a company? I feel like at a start up it is better to be an IC due to the chaos of managing expectations at a startup. Hiring in a smaller startup is close to impossible.

How is the growth and exit opportunities for Finance and Shared Services Outsourcing advisory teams in Big 4?

I'm an engineer, and I feel like my manager is more of a friend than anything else. We talk about our personal lives, and I feel like it's hard to be completely honest with her when she's so casual with me.

Ahh stop this madness!!!

Hello,

In search of interview advice!

After about a full year of attempting to make a career shift into career services in higher education, I am finally getting interviews. I recently interviewed for a Career Coach position at a community college. Tomorrow, I have an interview for an Assistant/Associate Director for the career development office at a law school. Advice on how to market myself or what questions I can expect with not a lot of experience in my background would be appreciated!

How do I get job direct in europe
Not through own company

Hey everybody, new here. But after reading through some of the post , I see that I am not the only one in the same boat. I’m in my 2 year as a teacher, currently a middle school math teacher. It was never my intention to begin with and I don’t mind it. I just know that’s not where my heart is. Anybody have similar experiences moving from teaching into another career such as something in finance. How would I even begin to break into the field with a degree in something not particularly related.

Hi all, I've had this burning question that I just can't seem to figure out. If I've already learned UX experience on the job but don't have any professional certification, should I still get a certificate for validation? If so, what's the best certificate (for a more experienced designer) and if not, what continuing education should I pursue to enhance my career as a Product Designer? Thanks in advance!

Avg. salary of a Senior PM in Boston vs. NY? Thinking about making the switch...

Just a question for those here. What does anyone see as a job outlook for a pharmacy technician that has 15 years of experience and is studying for the CPhT? I would like to return to 100% remote work and, understandably, most job postings that are about my caliber are requiring the cert. I am thinking of possibly pivoting into an IT job that would be fully remote later on down the road, but I’m interested in seeing what is possible now (and an average pay) for someone with my experience.

How long does it take to do a proper job search? Manager. Seems like it'll take 2-3 months to do this right by talking to recruiters, monitoring opportunities, not taking 1st thing out there etc.

I know this is always the question for tax, but with 2 years of experience, what are some of the non-tax exit opportunities you’ve seen colleagues transition to? I know the longer I stay in tax, the harder it’ll be to get out, but have been wondering what the feasibility of switching to real estate development, consulting, etc. would be or if you really need to go get a MBA or something to make the switch?

Im wondering if I have a future in AIA. Based on my experiences and hearing from managers getting scolded by large scale company IA heads, it sounds like the higher ups in client side IA are not so laid back. Is there any truth to this? It would make sense, given the nature of the work. If so, I might consider other exit opps. Thanks.
