I'm an HR professional currently working at a nonprofit and I'm seriously considering getting out of HR completely. With the state of the world, I want to help people more directly. I want to go back to school, but I have no clue what for. I enjoy L&D, technology, and process improvement, but what other areas could I do this in?

For those that have pivoted out of HR into a more socially focused role, what are you doing now?

I’m a PR manager with 5 years of experience and have been applying for copywriting, project management and comms strategy positions with no luck. I’ve been applying since April and have only had 2 interviews. Any advice on how best to transition or what other fields I can look into?

I'm accepting an offer with a new company... Start in early Aug. Senior Manager role, though in this company that equates to Manager at most consulting farms. They did not had hunt me. I came to them for the job.

I have COVID delayed vacations planned for the last week in August and the first week in October.

Should I just cancel one of them? Or should I at least put both on the table and see what they say? They're going to hire me either way, but I wonder if it's a bad start to ask for both.
