I quit my previous job approximately 5-6 months ago due to toxic culture and being pressured to commit fraud… I fear hiring managers see that I’ve been out of work for this time and may assume I was fired or laid off. Additionally I’ve had a couple interviews where company “X” interviewers have commented on this and in an effort to not bad mouth my previous employer I’m stuck with a generic answer like I want to take my career to the next level with Company “X.” Any thoughts/advice?

Received a reference form to fill up from an employer - I'm the person being asked to be a reference for someone else.

I thought reference is a call asking me things and find out if I would work with this person again - if so, the answer is yes.

The questions being asked here: what are her strengths and weaknesses, what advice would you give her new manager? Why don't you find out yourself via your interview process? Lazy shits.

What trips me up is the offer letter has already been signed

I interviewed for a role about 6wks ago. Didn’t hear back after following up. Email from recruiter Monday saying no new developments yet, but hows my search going? Is this a good sign?

I am a project manager with the strong desire to transition into product management but I’m feeling a little discouraged. Every opportunity I come across mentions 7-10 years experience. I just started training for the Google UX certification with hopes that may better prepare me. Any other suggestions? Words of advice on how to best make this transition?

Thanks in advance!

What kind of Masters program would you recommend for someone hoping to make it into a senior leadership/executive role in Comms/PR? I have over 6 yrs of experience in Comms in public/private sector.

My question is, is there an advantage of doing a Masters to improve my chances of getting into a leadership role? If so, would an MBA be better than a Masters in PR/Comms?
