Have a what do I do scenario. I am over at publicis as a remote employee and just found out that they are starting to push people to hybrid. The only problem is that I live in Raleigh where there are no publicis offices to my knowledge. They claim I am safe because my contract is listed as remote, but I just feel that in time that is too good to be true. Im nervous about making a switch mid pregnancy though and I do love where I work. So what would you do?

Who is “they”? I would try to get clarification from a source within HR if you haven’t talked to them. You didn’t mention how far along your pregnancy is now, but keep in mind the typical hiring process takes 3-4 months from application to start date, so if you did try to get a new job now you’d be WAY more pregnant when starting. Unless you have other reasons to believe your role will be eliminated before you go on parental leave, I’d try to hang tight until then and maybe start looking depending how the climate feels when you come back.

It used to be the case that you could never say anything in the slightest negative about your old position/employer/etc when applying for a new job. I have had a gap in my tech résumé for a bit, as I’ve had some negative experiences (typical ones for women in technology) that have come to light in recent years to the public. Since that is now the case… Is it now OK to say that I left my last position because of toxic company culture, or something of the sort? Or still a huge NO-NO?

Top SDRs oftentimes don't sound like traditional salespeople when cold calling. They use a very casual voice tone.

Here are a few tips:

1. Avoid upward inflections at the end of sentences. This makes it sound like everything you ask is a question
2. Slow down and eliminate buzzwords. Speaking fast makes you sound nervous and less confident
3. Avoid reading from a script - internalize your message and put it into your own works so you sound like YOU!

Thoughts? What are your top tips?
