I was promoted a few months ago but anticipate getting laid off soon. How do I represent my short tenure in this new role on LinkedIn/resume? Combine roles into one line item, or separate the two?

I’m sorry OP. Leave the 2 separate - it’s good for people to see your progression and everyone in this industry understands layoffs. Good luck!

From my understanding layoffs are a LOT easier to explain then getting fired. Definitely two lines! But I’ve also seen resumes that show promotion kinda like this:

Junior Strategist - Assistant Strategist - Digital
Strategist

Kind of laddering the promotions which is pretty effective also. Best of luck on your search! And make sure to start adding local recruiters to your linked in! They all know when a layoff’s coming and then start scouting right away! You’ll find something!

If you do ladder them like pm1 said, definitely do it the other way around (most junior position should never be first).

But I recommend separating them anyway.

Keep to separate, and explain leaving as a financial thing for them or a growth thing for you. Unless you’re fired for gross incompetence the truth prob won’t hold you back.

Whoever said employers don’t care about grades and transcripts after your first job was a liar. Every lateral position that I’ve applied to as a 3rd year has requested transcripts.

Side note - it speaks volume when multiple associates are trying to lateral at the same time

Hi IBM sharks 🦈

So I got interviewed for a project by the IBM team. The interviewer told me that its a go ahead from their end, now the client will assess my profile and if they too are fine with it, I will be onboarded?

Is it true that we have client interview as well? If yes then after how many days of interview by IBM team, client interview takes place?

Or its just that if the IBM team is fine with it, we are selected for the project?

Any inputs on this will really help :)

Hi Fishes,
I had given interview for network security architect position in Feb last week. And as per recruiter, I got selected for that role. I have been asked to share the documents on March 1st. I did a few followup for the offer letter update and they asked me 2 wait for 2-3 weeks. And now they are saying position has gone on hold after I did another followup.
Could it be because of expected salary ?
