I’m about sick of the politics that goes into your job or keeping it. Second time I’ve been let go because of restructuring only to find out that they wanted somebody else taking my position, but didn’t know how to get it done

The worst part is there's no recourse for you. They get to gaslight about the reason, you get to experience the joys of unemployment. Sincerely hope they have no luck filling your old role and have to deal with some serious fallout because of it.

There’s always something that you could do differently as well. Because you are the common denominator in all instances. It doesn’t mean that you were wrong but to learn what you can learn from it as well. Many blessings on the future endeavors.

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement. On my CV I have a section listed as “Education” and under it I have “Business Studies” with the university name and the 3 years that I attended the course (2.5 to be exact). It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before. Does it seem unrealistic for my counter offer to be 12k more than the original offer? Considering that the original offer is roughly 8k less than the market salary. Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer
