How do folks get in touch with recruiters? Do you wait for them to reach out or just find a recruiter at a company you’re interested in? Seeing a lot of conversations with recruiters all around me and wondering why I don’t hear from any

They usually reach out to me with roles I don’t like. If I’m looking at a specific company I’ll DM one of the recruiters on LinkedIn.

For startup roles I had a recruiter in NYC reach out, and I let her know specific geographies I’m interested in & sector and she sends new opps my way every few months to gauge interest

I had an initial interview on Wednesday. About an hour later, I got a call from an internal recruiter from the same company wanting to follow up and see how the interview went. I didn’t see the voicemail until the following morning when I was at work and called her back that afternoon when I was out of work. I still haven’t heard from her. Is this normal? Should I not try calling back again? I’ve been at my job for several years, so I am unfamiliar with how I should handle a situation like this.

Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Received an offer as Engagement Director from Salesforce (CSG, pre sales, L9). Great benefits package, 40% increase in total comp and better WLB.

I do love the people in my practice and current client, but career trajectory has stalled after taking parental leave earlier this year and (yet another) change in leadership.

Realistically, making to Director is 2-3 years away and will require sacrificing time with my family that I am not prepared to give up.

Should I stay or should I go?

Hey 🐠, curious your thoughts on two roles. 27m finishing non-MBA grad school while working.

Second is a senior manager level growth & partnerships role for a slightly larger company that’s cool but I’m less enthusiastic about. 165k with 20% bonus and equity. Ignoring equity considerations, would you take the job with lower pay if the company is more exciting?
