Depends on your personal goals and story, but within the first year after promoted to manager is usually a good time

I would say a first year manager would be the fastest “jump start” to your career. Not unusual to see people be in their late 20’s being hired as a director at a f500 company

So I had a first interview this past Friday at a company that I had previously interviewed with and made it to the final round last month. They decided to go with an internal candidate after it came down to me and him. The current role is more senior, and was one I was asked to apply for by the hiring manager, whom I also met with during the last set of interviews. I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?

I am currently in a logistics sales position at my company. I’ve thrived in a position very similar to this previously. But my direct boss wants us to take a more email based approach when first gaining contact with a prospect. I’m having a little bit of trouble getting the responses I want back fast enough making it seem like I am lacking productivity. Any suggestions on how to get a response more effectively by email?
