Hi! I’m new to the tech industry in San Francisco. I manage a team of 5 people in recruitment. One of my hiring managers is slow to respond and causes confusion around what her team needs. I’ve recently learned she’s been blaming me for being her bottleneck behind the scenes and telling people my team and I aren’t delivering for her. I’ve tried to have a meeting with her and she avoids me like the plague. Im at a point where I need to cya. Any tips on working on solution?

I saw some sales managers discussing hiring strategies, especially for entry level roles (e.g. SDR, BDR).

One strategy that came up was having the applicant do 90 minutes of cold calling into real prospects with the hiring manager coaching.

What do you think of this approach? Would be curious to hear from both hiring manager perspectives and from candidate perspectives.

Can any pls share the lead position interview questions?

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut.

My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?

I’m planning to buy the study materials for the SHRM-CP certificate through Amazon. What are the best ones to obtain?
