I’m currently a financial analyst at an ad agency. Coming close to 2years in this role was a intern for 6 months prior at the same agency. I’m realizing I’m not enjoying the work anymore and would like to do something else. I’m looking for more of a analytical role. I’ve been thinking about being a business analyst. Can someone provide tips or advice on transitioning to a BA. Also I’ll take any advice in other roles I can transition to with my background that I may enjoy.

I’m 2 years out of college and have been working at a bank as a corporate accountant. I’m thinking about making a transition from to IB/ more finance oriented role. Any advice?

Just curious to how my firms (wealth management/bank/trust) comp compares with others out there. I received a promotion earlier this year from an Investment Advisor, AVP to Senior Investment Advisor, VP and moved from $110K to $140K ($130 salary + $10K discretionary bonus) all in. By meeting expectations in 2 pay cycles, the base bumps up to $175K + bonus. Grown in this role over about 10 years with the same firm, MBA + CFA; top 10 city and living comfortably as dual income household.

I recently accepted a position with a new org. One of the benefits I asked about with offer was the parental leave policy and was told (in writing by HR) 16 weeks paid after 1 year, which is as good as you can hope for in US. Now I’ve been sent the employee handbook to review/sign and it says only 12 weeks, which is less than the org I’m leaving. What might my recourses be to negotiate 16 weeks when the time comes? Also, should I be viewing this is a red flag?

I need some advice. I have some co workers that are really disgruntled and complain about their jobs a lot to me. It really bring me down and makes it hard for me to work because I get constant messages about how much they hate it here. I’m friends with them outside of work so I don’t want to explode on them. What do you recommend I do/say to them? I want our friendship to last but I can’t stand how they talk right now. And honestly some of their bitching is valid but some isn’t imo.

Thinking about my next career move, looking for a 6 figure base salary and good company.

I have a Mech Eng bachelors, about to graduate with my MBA, 6 YOE in manufacturing environments with a focus on design and product management. Open to any thoughts or suggestions.

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH. There is talk of bringing everyone back to the office full time and that’s not what I would like to happen. I’ve been searching for a new position in which it would be a remote role. My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.

Is it okay to email a recruiter if you find the email on your own? I mean most emails nowadays are fistname.lastname@company.com/net

Does this annoy recruiters especially if you already sent them a LinkedIn message and they didn’t respond or does it show you’re serious about the job?

New to Fishbowl, currently working on a career pivot! I graduated in May with my MBA and have experience as a Director of Operations as well as recruiting and HR experience.

Feeing a little defeated over here. Thank you!

I’ve been an insurance defense attorney for 10+ years and am feeling completely drained, for all the standard reasons. I’m ready to make a move away from insurance defense but I’m not 100% sure where to begin. I am also considering leaving the law entirely but again am not sure what fields to look into or how to approach this type of search. If you’ve made this move before, how did you do it? Do you have any tips for how to get started or types of jobs to look for?

Hello, not sure if I should move this to the Referral Bowl or here is good.
I have multiple years of working in Sysadmin/Tier 2-3 roles. Still experience trouble getting another SysAdmin role since I lost mine. I live in a state with plenty of work if sec-cleared. I cant get one.

Is there any way to work for a company as their SAP/Scada/Primavera support ? I have 4 years of experience in these but the place I have joined here in Canada doesn’t use these technologies/ERP systems. Just wondering if I could land a part time position (available Saturday/Sunday) just so that I stay updated and cutting edge? I’m open to any kind of pay (if it’s minimum wage then I’d prefer to work remotely). Any suggestion or any help?

Just got out of the Army and trying to grow my personal brand as a personal trainer.

Hi,
I'm thinking of changing my career to data analytics. What course should I be doing?

looking at jumping from a big brand to a small boutique creative shop. they don’t do a ton in the way of traditional titles, I’d just be “strategy”. excited by the opp to work on a nimble team with a lot of influence and really rad clients, but i’m a little scared of losing my fancy brand title for future roles. can someone tell me it doesn’t matter!

Looking at a complete pivot into a business analyst or even into a technical software role, but still trying to work out where to start.

Coming from an enterprise sales role and before that enterprise marketing. I've got a minor in accounting so have (very) basic formal commercial knowledge.

Would you recommend reaching out to recruiters to get an idea, completing a few online courses or building up my skillset on the side to eventually transition? I've accepted that there will be a paycut.

Anyone here have experience pivoting to self-employment? I’m specifically eyeballing commercial photography post-covid.

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!
