Help! Need some advice. Will it hurt me professionally to interview (or turn down) for a temp position that I will have to turn down because the pay is too low, but I really want to work for the company in the future? I wouldn’t want it as a perm position, even if they offered (pay and other career factors). Also, I can’t get a second job as it requires last minute availability for overtime and weekends. I need a job, but this would be a huge step back I couldn’t recover from professionally.

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing. Had a very successful interview with Amazon but recruiter is working hard trying to place me and said there’s no knowing how long to find a team.

My wife and I are considering relocating to a new city. I’ve been working with a recruiter who (I thought) gave me a good lay of the land. Which firms to meet with re lateral opportunities, which to avoid, etc. I’ve since spoken with a friend who has connections at other firms that could be a better fit. Do I bring in my recruiter or reach out through connections? Is using a recruiter beneficial to me, or am I better off on my own? How does their fee play in to what I could get as a package?

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center).
