Hey y’all. Been laid off a year and half ago. Been doing some entrepreneurial / freelance stuff and had interviews but no full time job offers. Looking for some advice/help.

I was a human capital consultant at Deloitte for 2.5 years, before that worked in talent management at a Fortune 500 for 3 years and have a master’s in I/O.

Any advice on how to get a Change Management Consulting role, or roles in Talent/OD?

Thank you.

I have been job searching myself, for a different role than what you are looking for, but I have come across a number of job descriptions for HR program management/consulting roles with an emphasis on change management. Maybe search for program management? Also searching the roles in various recruiting agencies could yield better results vs. internet search engines, i.e. looking at places like Search Solution Group, etc. Best of luck!

Network and look for HR program manager-type roles.

I recommend three steps:
1) Get very clear on your value proposition and personal brand.
2) Get ready and comfortable with your "elevator speech"
3) Network, network, network, not only online, but in-person as much as possible.
Also I recommend informational interviews: find the organizations you'd be delighted to work for and find someone who works there who would give you 20 minutes of her time to share with you what's it like to work there, and give you advice on how to proceed to be considered for opportunities. I hope this helps. Good luck, and all the best.

Hi there! Let me know if you’d be open to connecting. Also doing contracting work right now

Hi everyone,

I have got the ey hr mail stating i should provide him with aadhar card, information sheet and latest resume for a audit and assurance contract for 6 months as iam a semi qualified CA.

Here my question is should i take this opportunity. Cause since this is only for 6 months. After that, what i can do, where should I try to get the job?

In mid size firms, people won't pay as much as big 4 pays.

Should I take it or am I making a mistake by taking this.

Has anyone found a way to automate salary certifications?

We get about 3-5 requests daily to fill out salary certifications for our employees in EMEA.

At the moment, we have to do all of them manually. We open a pdf, then open their employee file and plug away. It's tedious and time-consuming, but the banks I found won't accept an internal salary certification for some reason. They're adamant about using their form. Has anyone come across this?
