Hi Everyone,

I am currently working at Meta as a Recruiting Coordinator under contract. That contract will soon come to term in July. There hasn’t been any talks about extending my contract, so I am getting very nervous about potentially being out of work in July. I am a first gen corporate worker, and I have about 5 years of experience in recruitment. I have also recently finished my Masters in HR Management, so I wanted to jump on here and see if anyone has any tips for landing a new role?

I don’t think it would hurt to ask about it in a 1:1 with your manger! I’m sure you are valuable to the team, they owe you clarity on whether to plan on extension/conversion

I've not anything other than generic advice (Apply to many jobs. Don't get your hopes up too much on any one position. Make sure you have good stories in the STAR format. etc.)

But I did want to say this at least: Good luck.

Not sure if you’ve talked to your management about converting to FTE, but if you have and they’re not moving fast on it, I would consider asking them for a letter of recommendation as your on the hunt for your next opportunity. In my experience, it was taking too long for me to convert from an intern to FTE, and once I asked my boss for the letter, I was converted the next week.

2. FAANG, Sales Account Manager role (similar to my current role)
I have 5-6 YOE and have been in an Account Management role for most of my career - is it worth making the switch to PMM at a smaller firm or sticking with what I know at a FAANG? Both would have relatively similar comp. Thanks in advance for your input!
