Dear every manager:
Your adept freelancers are not a threat to you or your position. They don't want your job. Just appreciate their help—the not-so-subtle attempts at undermining them is never a good look. *wink*

Hi, I need referral in HPE, I have the job Id, Please DM

Hi everyone! I’m pivoting from working in politics in search of a role in DEI. I have 1.5 YOE managing multiple campaigns and a BA in Global Studies & MA in Ethnology. I have experience working in and with non-profits and a passion for people and culture. I’d love to connect to hear about your journeys & advice for an early career transition!

Hi team, can anyone explain me about the job role of systems integration senior specialist?

I’m new to the cybersecurity industry, professionally speaking (I did/do a lot for family and close friends). I’ve completed a boot camp, which I regret doing. I have certifications for companies such as Qualys and ISC2, but no CompTIA security+ yet. I tailor my resume to position descriptions. It’s been a month or so, without any offers. What would you suggest that I do to get my first entry level position?

Looking to leave my current role but scared of financial outlook, graduated August 2022 and have 2 YOE of formal experience in tech under my belt with startups and large companies. Currently making $70k base- is that realistic anywhere else other than startups/tech for a marketing or sales position?

Wanting to pivot into medical device or med sales.

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I'm still bringing money in as a software engineer, but I'm looking for advice on how to support a partner who has been laid off. Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

Klick - would you go? Why or why not?

How do you feel about "workplace of the future?" I literally can't focus when I can hear & see everything everyone is doing. It's definitely impeding my productivity to not be in a quiet environment.

Any idea what a reasonable salary is for a strategic sourcing specialist in the PNW? I currently work in allocations and graduate with a dual MBA/MS in two weeks.

It's incredible how our racist af retail manager has managed to keep a job. HR is aware of this, but nothing has been done to fix this. Anyone else dealing with such mess?

Can someone enlighten me and tell me whether the industry as a whole is slow or if it's just me?

We should do a Charlotte Consultants Bowl Meet up.

From reading a number of books and listening to a number of podcasts about starting a business, one underlying factor they all share is to have deep passion for what you do. How do you know what your passion is? I mean I think a lot about golf but i don’t think that’s a passion. It’s my hobby. I think most people just know.

How long were you a junior?

I’m looking for some new things to read or listen to — doesn’t need to be ad-related. Books, podcasts, whaddya got?
I’m not really into fiction, but open to anything. Last books I enjoyed were Junior and Moonwalking with Einstein, last podcast I binged was Startup (Gimlet).

Are there any agencies where creatives actually have good work-life balance in LA, SF or anywhere else for that matter? Like no weekends or no working more than a 40-50hr week? Or do I have to go in house for this? Or do I have to leave advertising altogether?

I feel like I’m either getting burnt out by work or trying to heal myself from it. There’s never much time for real life and I don’t want to be on my death bed reminiscing like, “Wow, I made some cool ads.” Nothing scares me more.

Is anyone expecting agency layoffs at the moment?
