Hi,
I hope everyone is doing well!
I recently accepted an offer with B.O.A. How soon is standard for one to work a position before looking for upward mobility?

Some people say a year at minimum. I feel like if you go through your first 6 months absolutely coasting, excelling at everything you do, and wishing for more challenges, it's not too early to start looking or asking about a vertical move. Just make sure you're truly integrated and ready for the move before you make it.

Thank you

Congrats! Honestly, 6 months is reasonable if you are putting in the work!

Thank you!

I think I honestly always followed corporate guidelines of having to stay in a role for a year before moving. But if B.O.A don’t have that then set your own personal goal. Congratulations!! 🎉

Hi everyone!
I currently work for Graybar Electric as a Project Specialist. Over the past few months, I’ve been training some of the new employees and it’s really inspired me to want to move into a operations training and development or a leadership position. Unfortunately, there isn’t a lot of room for growth where I’m at. I’m hoping to make new connections and see where this new endeavor takes me, if anyone would be so kind as to refer me. Here’s a picture of our family dog for some likes ❤️

So I just started a new job in sales (B2B specifically). All my life I’ve been in blue collar jobs, military, then construction work ect.

I guess what I’m looking for is just tips on how you guys were successful walking into a whole new arena if that makes sense?
