Hi everyone! Tamy here
2020 college grad with a degree in organizational dynamics, alongside that I have my Google project management cert (still in progress).

So lately I have been applying for roles: junior business analyst/ project assistant/ project management entry/ project coordinator and have been hit with all rejections. It sucks but i must press on.

Now my question is, how the hell do i break into the work space?

I would advice to get your resume reviewed by a professional, it makes a huge difference

That’s the thing I did! I got an interview with one but it didn’t go through. I guess i should mention i have no experience outside of my cert.

Ask your favorite professors for help in

I'm currently in a process for senior associate at a Big4. The process began on July, yet between the first and second interview it took like 3-4 weeks. And between the 2nd and 3rd like 7 weeks. I sent an email to HR during those weeks asking for an update and didn't have an answer. Then it a 3rd one was scheduled three times (the manager didn't connect to the first 2) and next week I have the last interview with 1 partner. Is the timing normal? Or were they looking for other candidates or what?

I did interview at another company earlier and they refused to pay the salary I asked for because I wasn’t senior enough. Any tips ?
