Hi! I'm looking at moving to a new role outside my organization. I'm seeing A LOT of interesting positions opening up with @Microsoft (Customer Success Manager, Account Executive, Sales Specialist etc). My experience and core strengths do align these roles but I don't have tech experience. If you’re a Microsoft recruiter or are currently in these roles I'd love to hear your feedback on transitioning to this space. I work for a large Fortune 500 company in the manufacturing space for reference

Current position is $45k year, full time but only a 30hr week. Also, no responsibility and little to no actual work. I play Switch or read most of the time. Was bored and picked up a side project, which impressed the boss. I have a meeting on Thursday with the president of the company for a Social Media/Marketing dual role position. I *know* they’re going to lowball me at $50k. How can I turn it down with tact OR convince them that I’ll need $70k+ to be worth the stress and hassle?

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
