Hi! I am a relatively inexperienced aspiring writer seeking entry-level jobs in the Boston area. I have a degree in communications and journalism, and would be open to a lot of positions. I am having trouble hearing back from companies due to the job market we are dealing with and my lack of experience. Does anyone have any advice for me? I need to start paying my loans soon and am wondering if I should just get a part-time job while I continue trying for something more career-forward.

HELP! When using other offers to negotiate salary, does the employer usually ask for proof of your other offers that you mentioned? I’m super new to this so I’m just curious.

Also, if they do ask to show proof, is that a red flag? Or is that pretty common? If so, I imagine I’d just block out the company name and stuff like that?

Currently on H1B and waiting for an offer from EY. Does EY kick start with green card process quickly in special cases. HR said normally it is 1 yr but he has to check with legal team. More inside..
