Do you feel networking through sites like Glassdoor or LinkedIn has helped your career or do you feel it’s a “just for show?” I have a LinkedIn but honestly never grasped the idea of it.

LinkedIn has been great for recruiters reaching out to me for opportunities, especially the jobs that are not posted.

Not really. I log in once a week or so and hit like on all the posts I see from my connections, but that's about the extent of my networking on there. I only bother having a profile for job searching and for the random applications that require a link to your LI.

LinkedIn is not near as good as it used to be, but I am still getting contacted by recruiters on there fairly often. It is how I found my current job late last year. I find it is a lot better for recruiters to find you rather than for you to reach out to others. My attempts to network on linkedin are usually ignored.

I think it’s helped me get more info about a company and people that work there, and it’s helped me stay connected to colleagues I’ve worked with in the past. It hasn’t really helped me network to get a new job, but I haven’t tried that hard to use it for that either

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade. Series 7, Series 63, Life, CFP, ChFC, and soon to have my MBA with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. I’m look to enter another area of Finance at this point instead of starting over somewhere else from scratch, but not sure what direction to go. Interested in Investment Banking or M&A.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Does anybody know what the typical salary range is and total comp for someone starting out as an internal or external wholesaler? If you are one of these, can you share about your experience in terms of whether you liked it or not, work life balance, travel, etc?

User experience mgr salary? I support six product teams and eight reports. 20+ years experience

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
