If you were counseled out, they most likely noted you as not eligible for rehire. If you have strong network and sponsorship from a partner, that might get you through initial screening.

I’m not super interested in going back. Much happier in my current role from a WLB perspective. But a recruiter reached out and I just want to see how far I can take this before they realize that I am not worthy of the only worthy competitor to McK there is.

When would you say that things really started to “click” for you and you felt like you knew what you were doing? Not necessarily when you could run a deal, but where you really began to understand the basics of getting a deal from start to finish and generally could draft ancillary documents with little to no revision needed? Also, when did you feel more in control of your work flow and have a solid grasp of how long tasks would take you?

Really looking for a way to turn around a toxic building culture with staff to staff bullying, cliques/social isolation, hard feelings on big topics (racism, non acceptance of gender identity). Last year the staff polarized with the lead bully whom I helped leave. And the lead gossip (who was my secretary) that gained their sympathy and turned them against me. She also left. Now I need to regain trust and eliminate unacceptable teacher behaviors. Open to any and all advice.

consultant keeps making spelling mistakes on every document, including when they just need to copy and paste text directly from email instructions. when they send me work they now say “let me know if you find any spelling errors” - and while i always check work because it’s a team effort, i feel like these careless mistakes could be avoided. english isn’t their first language (nor mine), is it insensitive to ask them to double check their work? or is there any other way to handle this?
