Currently working at Perforce Software in Minneapolis as a writer making 70k. Was offered a job to be a writer at Amazon Alexa for 95k plus 11k sign on and shares.

Here’s the catch: the job was listed as fully remote but now they’re asking if I’d want to move out on the West Coast…not a requirement but they really sound like that’s their ideal.

My husband will be relocating to NYC for his job which is where I want to go…working West Coast hours in NYC sounds kind of awful. BUT I really don’t

Howdy Folks! Looking for a mid-to-senior level producer (specifically with experience in post production coordination) for a 2-3 week contract starting the w/o 7/18.

Need someone organized as there are a decent amount of deliverables.

For the last four weeks or so of WFH I’ve been making it to my desk around 7:30/8am and working basically without a break—lunch at desk- but cannot maintain momentum past like 6:30/7:30pm. Most of the day is billable work, but I cannot bring myself to finish outstanding assignments after 8pm, but then feel so guilty when I’m not working past that time. Am I burnout or fucked up? (Also I hate this gig & am not in it for the long haul, just hate not turning things quickly)

Pregnant IBanking Director who will be a single mom needs advice on negotiating maternity leave - I have been with a boutique Ibank for 10 hrs and wish to ask for paid maternity leave and flexible WFH for another 3 months. Can you share any precedents form the industry? Our company policy is terrible (12 wk unpaid) and I wish to use my leverage to advocate for changing the policy for all future parents, not just for myself. Many thanks in advance.

How much savings should you have after making a down payment on a home? Fiancé and I, both 26, are thinking of accelerating our timeline to buy a home given we’ll both be continuing to WFH indefinitely. We found a home we love, but it would require us to have less in savings than we’re comfortable with. Ideally we’d have a 3-6 month emergency fund leftover, but we’re not there yet, and covid is making us want to move quicker than planned. We’d be at ~1-2 months of savings after down payment.

I'm new to Fishbowl so please excuse me if I am in the wrong thread to post my job opportunity. I have a 6 month contract to hire, potential, with a major FinTech company looking for a Seasoned Software Engineer (Tech stack: Java, API, AWS, Spring Boot, React or Angular). Client is hiring in the following cities SF (CA), Scottsdale (AZ) and Chicago (IL). Pretty much remote but would need to go onsite when requested.

My company is looking for mid-level contract recruiters to do mostly direct sourcing and candidate engagement. Potential to go perm. If you’ve done a mix of tech, finance and searching for direct hire management consulting talent that’s even better. Remote position. Must like cold calling. $35-$40/hr

I'm a qualified attorney in South Africa looking to expand my career into startups/remote global opportunities. I've gotten a few interviews (mostly for contracting-focused roles since it's probably easier to adapt to and what I used to do), but haven't gotten an offer yet. If anyone has any tips on which online courses would make me more attractive to (eg. US and Europe-based) remote companies please share. I'd like to know which skills are transferable and valued. Any other tips welcome.

Hi All,

TCS is asking its employees to "Return to office", which I cannot,due to some personal reason.
I tried talking to HR and my MANAGER, but no result.
So I decided to switch, and currently I have an offer from ACCENTURE, but they informed, for now I can work from home but that they cannot provide me permanent WFH and they are also not sure when will I be asked to join the office.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?
SHOULD I ACCEPT THE OFFER?

Approved by doctor/HR to remain remote and it’s not going over well( we were told we would remain remote, which included giving up our desks, but are now being asked to come in two days). The person who seemed the most annoyed by my request is my direct boss. I found it odd because she announced she was only doing one day because she was pregnant and the director was basically like “ok”. I don’t want to put a target on my back and I do enjoy the work. Should I just bite the bullet and come in?

What are some feel good or fun things your company does to build on its social culture in a remote environment?

7 year experience teacher looking to transfer to remote position. Looking for 65-70k a year. The job does not have to be fully remote. I would be okay with presentations and meetings in person. My main thing would be flexibility.

What is the benefit is staying longer than 2-3 years at a firm when you can make more and still make partner when you hop around? I haven’t really seen a big downside other than having to learn the way the firm layouts work papers. This also assumes you go to a firm that uses the same tax software and potentially same practice management and document storage software.

Does the answer change if the person has no desire to become partner?

I'm actually a Registered Nurse; I've emailed support to find out how to change myself from a physician to RN. Are there any nurses on here who were able to get their foot in the door doing CDI without having CDI experience? I've been a nurse; overall, for 16 years. My clinical background is in Med-Surg, Telemetry, Step-Down, Infectious Disease with the last 10 years being away from bedside in Pharmacovigilance. Is it possible to land a CDI position without experience? So far I've had zero luck

Any companies that do a 4 day workweek M-T preferably?

Is submitting job references obsolete?

I didn’t get asked one for my current role and it’s looking like I won’t for the one I’m interviewing for now.

To be fair, all anyone ever does is pick people they know will say really good things anyway. So maybe removing them just saves everyone time.

Roulette table. Red or black? Why?

Any recs for very effective coverup or other makeup for acne scars?

I have scars on my chest, back, and face that turn bright red when I drink (thanks to Asian glow). They are not pitted and are barely noticeable when I am not drinking. However, I’d love to find a way to cover them while still wearing sexy clothing when going out. Would love some recs if any ladies have them!

This might not be career related but I am seeking advice on how to retire early. I know nothing about investing or saving money/budgeting so are there any good resources or advice anybody could share as I start my career? I’ve tried to read up about FIRE but I feel like I’m too dumb because it’s so complicated and I don’t understand it. Thank you!

Hey folks, I work in marketing and program management and, along with everyone else, the recession is hitting me hard financially. When I try to find companies that pay well, they’re all in tech… but all those companies are laying off, freezing and rescinding offers (had one rescinded myself) 😕 so my question to all of you - what industries/sectors are still in demand for marketers/program managers right now that actually pay well?

Writing on behalf of my BF: is 28 too old to switch careers? Honest answers only!

Is it okay to accept a job and then quit after a month because you ended up getting a better offer from another company? And advice on how to tell the current company?

I work for a large, legacy technology company that hasn’t been faring so well lately. I have a fantastic manager who cares about my growth, a supportive team, I’m well compensated...but I don’t believe in the product that I have to sell.

Based on stock prices, press, and exec turnover, I don’t know what to do. There are more positives than negatives but it’s hard to be inspired (or confident) much lately. We are a decade behind newer tech companies

Anyone else deal with this?

Been at company many years and rebuilt dysfunctional team into high performers while also driving huge metrics and impact. Recently interviewed for elevated role and CEO congratulated me and told me I slayed it and he was proud of me. This is 2nd time I’ve applied for this job and found out yesterday my boss (not CEO) hired external. Don’t feel valued and I’m likely quitting without job. I’ve been through the ringer at this place/boss. Am I making a mistake for leaving without another job?

I’ve been a creative strategist, account manager (both agency) and an ad sales operations manager (television/digital media) and I’m tired of bouncing around. I’m trying to narrow down paths that I can take now, but am at a loss. There are so many ways I could go. Because of my last two roles I have a great interest in creative operations type positions, but I’m not quite sure how actually land the job. Any thoughts?

Open question for the Bowl! What is the best career advice you’ve ever given or received?

Over the last few months my job work load has increased to helping more teams and I have been brought on to be a major voice on a product transition (I am one of three non managers helping make the decision and have more responsibility on the project then half the managers. The company is global (30+ teams)) and I can see that it will increase over the next months. The company I work for is known for not promoting internally easy. Anyone have any advice on how to make the transition easier?

Currently making $75k, which is very low compared to my counterparts. However, in February I’m supposed to get a salary adjustment with my yearly review. I got a job offer for $120k-150k which I turned down cuz I want to stay at Adobe.

How/when do I use this to leverage a good salary adjustment in Feb?

Dont want to spread too much, but what do I do if I feel that I will be let go by my 90 days? I currently dont have anything lined up, but want any advice so I dont have a lapse in income, and can stay in social media/marketing as I made a career change into this.

Is this new job DOA? I’ve been in my new role 6 weeks after interviewing extensively and getting 5 offers and thinking back on those offers I turned down. I picked this company bc I liked their product and the manager, but I’m already feeling 1. REALLY silo-ed . Not a collaborative environment (even though I’m perfectly capable of doing my own thing.)Like I have entire days I don’t talk to anyone 2. Can’t seem to get my boss’s attention on my priorities that truly should be huge company issues

I have been offered a lateral move within my company to a role I (believe) I will be more interested in that will suit my skills more. However, I’ve now been offered a promotion in my existing Role, and have heard that this is a pretty big deal and almost fast track to Director. Am I mad to pass up a promotion for a lateral move that is unlikely to promote me for some time?? I’ve been in my existing role almost 2yr. Will it affect my future growth? I’m 30 so would love to be a director soon

Questions about job hopping-
My average tenure at a company is ~1.5 years (with ~11 YOE), but each jump I've made has yielded progressive/tangible career growth.

I'm concerned after my most recent jump (went from a product director to a head of product position at a different, smaller company after only a year) that I've kind of poisoned future career prospects at larger companies.

Any insights on whether this type of job hopping is a complete deal breaker for potential HMs?

Does anyone know any companies that offer project coordinator positions in LA, California (state) or remote for undergrads or people without a bachelor’s degree? I’ve been trying to apply to one but they all require a bachelor’s degree and I’m currently an undergrad.

Just got let go from my second agency job in six months because of client budget cuts. Anyone got any advice for moving to client side??

How do you politely decline a third interview at a company or an offer?

After my first initial interviews I realized the responsibilities are that of 3 marketers & I’m not interested in getting a job that’s set up for failure.

I don’t have another offer lined up but I also don’t want to waste their time continuing to pursue me as a candidate.

I recently made the switch from industry finance to consulting and I’m struggling to find my place within the role. I was brought on as a Sr.Associate and I feel like I’m not producing at the same level as those below me. I’ve been told that my focus probably needs to move from producing deliverables to guiding/leading those who are producing deliverables. It’s really throwing me for a loop here and I just want to know if this guidance for a sr. associate makes sense in the consulting world.

I am thinking of leaving my stable full time job for a contract position (ongoing with no time frame) for a bigger raise (making an exra $20/hour) with a large tech company. I'll still get benefits through Aquent so it's not a huge loss. It just feels risky in terms of being a contractor and the potential for it to end at anytime. Seems like a good opportunity though to get my foot in the door and potentially apply for full time jobs later on

In desperate need of referrals/recommendations for a reverse recruiter or headhunters that work for job seekers rather than employers. I’ve been job searching and interviewing for 2 years now and I can’t take it anymore! I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, the most it’s taken in the past was 5 months to get a job. I’ve spent money on resume services and a career coach so I’ve also invested money that’s landed me nowhere. I can’t think of anything else to try 😔
