I’m looking to transition to a new role with more responsibilities and higher pay of course. I’ve been having a lot of trouble recently, and frankly it’s made me feel very down. I haven’t been able to get past initial recruiter screenings or first round interviews. I have almost 2.5 yoe as a BA and PM as well as a mba but I just can’t get a new role. Any advise or tips would be appreciated.

Hello,

I'm a first year at a mid sized firm and I don't want to be a lawyer anymore. The problem is, I don't really know what to do. I don't really know what I like because I've spent most of my life in school working hard to get the job that I have now. Has anybody gone through this? How did you discover your passions? Were you then able to find a fulfilling career?

Good Morning all,

Since I pivoted into TA (from the Wild West known as Finance) Tech Recruiting has always been the goal. But I’m having a hard time finding a way to get into that space (I do understand there’s a hiring crisis). Nevertheless, does anyone know of tech companies that are hiring? I may be low on the experience side so I’m willing to look at contract/ entry roles as well. Also, any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Tech-confession: Went back to being a Tech leader in Industry from a Tech consultant (SM) in a big4 earlier this year and had forgotten all about all night long deployments. This past weekend was a rude reminder. Stayed up all night to troubleshoot servers, deploy files and monitor performance with the team.

In comparison, consulting was literally so cushy.

However, as a benefit, I now get to use Visual studio more than powerpoint.
