How do I approach going back to an old job? I still have contacts and they are interested in having me again. I want to get the right comp and bonuses and not burn the bridge.

Sounds like you’ve already approached it.

Why did you leave the first time? What makes you think that won’t be a reason in the future as well?

Just be clear about what it would take to come back and make sure they fixed the source of your problem.

Who did you reach out too / how’d you know they were open to you coming back?

I have an MHA and 4 years of management experience. I’m currently a manager, but seeking a director level position. Any advice for trying to temper my expectations? I feel like all director level positions have 5 years in the posting, but a lot of my peers with the same experience are already in director level positions. Are they just lucky? Am I jumping the gun? Do I just need to stick it out?

Hi everyone! Idk if I need advice or I’m venting but I’ve been looking for jobs actively right now and want to make a switch soon.

This is demotivating and I honestly don’t know what to do. I don’t make an awful lot (105K in NYC) and I’m looking for a 20-30% bump in terms of compensation. Am I crazy here?
