Not entirely sure myself. If you fill the referral template it asks for your connection, so I’m always somewhat wary

I’m not sure how it would be a scam per say. I just think referrals give someone a better chance of getting their resume reviewed by a recruiter/HR, whereas if the referral gets hired, the person making the referral usually gets compensated.

Im not saying referrals are scams. The website jut seemed fishy

Would you submit a resignation letter(RL) if the employer is requesting one? I used to work in Sales with a Fortune 500 company for 8 years before leaving and starting a new role in IT with a small biz(medical practice). Was fortunate to have the opportunity to 180 my field, but the practice manager is an impulsive leader, which leads to a lot of disorganization. I am remote and they need someone FT. When we spoke about it they gently fired me because I couldn’t go FT, and now want a RL.

Currently I work for a mid-sized InsureTech that’s had 2 rounds of layoffs in the past 6 months. Salary is 100k, with no defined bonus. I have close to 4 years of PO experience. I am debating whether I want to leave since my boss is very chill and I have amazing WLB. Benefits are eh. 15 PTO days and healthcare premiums are okay. Should I jump ship? What could I be making at a bigger company? What types of companies are most stable right now?
