I’m 25 years old, graduated in 2017, and am interviewing for a Strategy Manager role with a pre IPO software company that is valued at ~$700M.

In the interview, the hiring manager asked me if I was okay being an individual contributor for a year, having the manager level title + salary, but not having any direct reports. It’s basically a utility player role for GTM, Pricing, Sales strategy, product, Corp Dev, etc.

What should I be thinking about? Does this sound good or bad?

Dear Friends,

I had my package discussion with HR and they asked me to submit the documents for approval. In the meantime I received a link from Capgemini to take the Mocha English Pro test.

Thank you in advance.

What is the best way to begin a transition from a help desk job to an actual career path in IT? I’m getting close to being at my current job for a year, however I have a lot of experience in the tech field, which is what landed me this job without any actual IT background. I definitely feel over qualified and under paid in the position I am in now, and looking for the next step towards an IT career. Any advice would not fall on deaf ears. TIA

Just finished my first year in audit. Recruiter reached out to me for a role with a 30% bump in salary. Total comp included it gets closer to 45%. I actually enjoyed my first year and especially being done with busy season now feeling pretty good. Not at all actively looking to leave, but just looking for advice on if I would be crazy for not pursuing an opportunity for so much more money at least a little further. Really what I care about is my long term career more than anything

I have just spent half an hour arguing with a contractor about how to correctly pronounce my company's name. Ten video and audio clips from A.com later, I think he can finally say it correctly.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.
