Have you noticed how people only remember the one thing that didn’t go right? A hundred details can land perfectly, but the small miss is what sticks. I’m proud of the work, but the pressure never really leaves.

The “small miss” is the place where most “executives” live. The worker bees toil endlessly from conception to production. The “suit,” who waltzes in at the last minute, panicked that work he (or she) had no hand in will be perfect, finds a “flaw.” Thus, a quarter-million dollar salary is “earned.”

That’s just human nature. I guarantee you remember more moments in your life you wish you had back to do differently than the ones you nailed. Regret is a bitch of a memory

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
