Does failing a licensing exam actually matter to recruiters? I didn't pass my first go-round, but I'm retaking it next week. I’m seeing some great job postings, but I’m hesitant to apply if my first-time fail is a red flag. I'm trying to decide whether to bring it up or not.

Not in my experience it doesn't. Those exams are VERY hard and we have had several people in our office fail them atleast once. As long as you pass it this go around you should be fine.

The failure rate on some of the exams can be pretty high, so it's likely that won't be held against you. What matters is that you pass the exam and obtain the license. Once that's done the history won't matter.

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.

Just restarted stimulants and already I'm dealing with twitches again. Does anyone else get these? No type of pain or anything just every once and a while my body will twitch strongly. Afterward I feel normal, but it's a bit annoying, and I can't control it at all which is a little disconcerting. Don't remember this from when I took stimulants as a kid, but it's been a while.

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.
