Applied to a job with Figma and have not heard a single thing back. Followed up on LinkedIn and no one seems to check their profiles. I’m perfectly qualified and continue to receive notifications for this same role “actively recruiting” on LinkedIn. Any advice or no anyone who works there?? Thanks! Figma

It’s been like this everywhere. I’ve found I barely get a reply, despite being qualified or overqualified, friendly, have links, bulletpoints, pdfs, whatever, unless you know someone in the company. Good luck :(

Also, what type of role are you looking for?

Unfortunately this is quite common right now. I’ve applied to roles (15+ years in the event industry) and either been turned down instantly with an auto reject email or no response from the company at all. I just think it’s an extremely competitive time right now

Anything event/tradeshow marketing related!

Unfortunately, we’re still in a spot where open roles (esp. in tech) have hundreds or thousands of applicants. Even referrals are no longer guaranteeing an interview.

If you have LI premium you might be able to see who originally posted the job… A friendly DM might help, might also get ignored.

Hope it works out for you!

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

Please who knows about the advisory practice within the PwC financial crime unit (Canada Acceleration Centre)? I understand it is a client non-facing advisory role. Would it be a good career decision for someone coming from GRC firms like Kroll, Control Risk or Exiger? I am concerned about the negative reviews relating to the PwC acceleration centres in general, and getting stuck in a role which does not provide growth opportunities. Thank you.

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
