it’s more like this is week 9 of ecd giving us confusing direction and feedback on mountains of tactical briefs. conflicting asks from the entire team. no oversight as the ecd is the main source of confusion. i am at my wits end.

What’s the common etiquette for waiting for a recruiter to call you back? Recruiter called me yesterday & left voicemail to call her back. I called back less than 5 mins later and left a voicemail, but didn’t get a call back. Tried calling one more time at the end of the day but no answer. Still haven’t heard anything today. Should I keep waiting or try calling again or send an email? Don’t want to be too aggressive but also want to hear their update & hopefully schedule next round interview

I’m about to accept a position at an information services company for a marketing coordinator position. They are offering 62k out of a 55k-65k range that I was quoted, and that aligns with my research. It’s much more than what I’m making now, but I thought it would be smart to run this by you all before signing the dotted line. This would be my first time as a marketing coordinator—I’m bringing in 5+ years from an adjacent industry to the table, if that gives perspective. WDYT? Thank you!

I went client side and am miserable - it’s madness on this side. Have made it 90 days and would prefer not to make it more than 120 - but we’re in a pandemic. Half of the problem is that I “onboarded” remote and the onboarding was TERRIBLE. The other thing is that there is no process and I’m on a team full of managers who have spent 15 years at this company and have no availability to talk to me with a day full of meetings. I’d prefer not to quit without a backup but I cry every day.
