I have a confession. As an account person I hope my agency is purchased by a consultancy. I feel a consultancy would provide better career stability and future options. Dare I say a better salary too?

Hi Fishes,

I'm a Sales recruiter currently recruiting telecom and UCaaS and am trying to get a salary and OTE range for people who sell Cyber Security solutions related to Overlay. If anyone can provide me with some insight I'd be very appreciative. If you don't want to comment directly, feel free to DM me.

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?
