Hi y’all! Hope this is the right bowl to post this question and get advice. I am dealing with an employer that preaches our values. The owner states that the values are important to her etc yet my manager violates these values and is involved in unethical behavior frequently. Example 1: My manager has told specialists (resourcers) that she will pay them under the table in order for her (manager) to get full credit vs splitfor the placement and therefore (barely) hit her target for the quarter.

I think I have pent up resentment for my peer junior team members. I clean up a looooot of their work and don’t mention it to senior people on the team. I try to provide feedback, but I don’t think it registers since we’re at the same level. Should I just start letting people fail?

Is it really that hard to say please and thank you instead of barking orders at me like a dog?

I know we are busy, I know this is my job, but dang, it is a lot more pleasant to work for the midlevels and seniors who say please and thank you and show a tiny amount of respect and appreciation.

I actively avoid working for midlevels and seniors who just bark at me, never ask, and never say thank you because it just shows they don’t care about being a half decent human.

What would you include about you on your bio as a late junior associate/early mid level? I feel like it’s important to flag what you work on, but also not like you have much control over that at this stage. Anything that’s a huge accomplishment to have done as a junior just feels braggy.

I am on a case with someone who is the same year as me and I do not know how to order our names on the filings. I am a F and he is a M. My last name is before his in alphabetical order. I don’t want to come off as having an ego, but I also don’t want to look like I am being deferential to him just because he is a M. Help.

What's a guilty pleasure you indulge in at work?

Hey 👋🏼 Where are you shopping lately for work appropriate, affordable, unique clothing?

How do they celebrate Christmas/the holidays where you work? Our office has decided to do an ugly sweater competition at our potluck and I can't wait 🤣. Plus we had a guy come and put icicle lights up around the eaves. When I worked at a hospital we could never decorate so I'm really enjoying it.

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

When do you think associates are usually let go in small practice groups that are currently being overwhelmed with work? Is it when it starts to slows down or when they already have a candidate to replace you? Just trying to figure out how long I have after annoying a partner 😂.

I have a manager that does not seem to understand mental illnesses, disorders, etc. He thinks I am making excuses rather than trying to explain things (I have diagnosed ADHD, anxiety, and depression) and I’m trying to take ownership for issues but also help him understand what I am describing better as well. We are sitting down for a conversation later this week. Any advice on how to gently educate or help with his understanding of neurodivergence and other mental health considerations?

Do you look desperate if you apply to several jobs within the same company? I was recently rejected for a job I REALLY wanted at a well known tech company. And after interviewing there and studying up on the company, I just really want to work there. The positions I'm applying for are definitely still within my wheelhouse. But will I just look too desperate to their in-house talent team to be considered?

What title do you list on a resume of the job you performed did not match? You were performing another job? I have read conflicting reviews. Some articles suggest you put the title of the job you we’re actually performing while others suggest you list your title and the other job in parentheses. Thoughts?

Hello! I am looking to pivot into a product manager role. Looking at job descriptions, I know it’s a wish list and it’s hard for recruiters to meet all criteria with candidates. What as recruiters do you look for most in a product manager or junior product manager ?

Currently in a full time role at an RPO but have a potential offer in house on a 6-9 month contract with strong possibility of conversion at Hubspot. Pay is $15k higher than I make now. Would it be a bad decision to take the contract / contract to hire? I don’t doubt my ability to get converted, but the entire market is seeing huge layoffs so it makes me a little nervous. Thoughts?

Hi recruiters! I am hoping a few people can share the salary range you’re seeing for a Director of Product Training position in a large software company. I’m seeing between $135k and $180k depending on YOE, scope of responsibilities, etc. I am negotiating a promotion opportunity and want to get more accurate data.

Can someone enlighten me on what someone who works in Talent acquisition or as a recruiter actually does?

I’ve connected with so many on LinkedIn, and when I I let them know I’m looking for a new role, they all tell me they don’t know about roles or they don’t refer people…I’m so confused. I thought their main job was those 2 things.

Is 5 YOE considered entry level or associate? When I apply to associate level jobs I get nothing but rejections. And all the entry level jobs call for new grads or people with under 3 YOE.

I’m so confused. How do recruiters look at someone with 5 YOE? What level is that considered?

I have a a question for recruiters-what’s the biggest misconception you’ve heard about recruiters like “they don’t read resumes” or “ways to reach out to a recruiter” anything like that? I’m always to myth bust and want to share some stuff with my team of recruiters.

QQ for Recruiters and all who hire. When an applicant selects "Do Not Wish to Identify" to race and gender questions (even to the disabily question) when applying to positions online...Does HR or a hiring manager see that? Do you look for it? Is it hidden? Do companies judge an applicat for not identifying? Can you share what happens if anything?
