I’m really struggling mentally. The understanding of how insanely busy and overwhelming it will be because of this COVID-19 crap is giving me severe anxiety and panic attacks. I want to leave so badly but no one is hiring right now. I don’t know what to do. I feel trapped with no way out.

Cont… Friday came and went no communication. I allowed another weeks to pass and then sent another follow up email.

What i didn’t mention was she had told me that if I get the position she would let me know and if I didn’t get it she would still give me a call . Another two weeks passed and I try emailing her and now she has stopped responding to my emails . Don’t understand this …..

I took a job I was overqualified for because I thought it would fit into my life (for now) better than an intense, high responsibility role. Plus, it’s a career shift for me into HR. The role has given me a lot of confidence that I can actually do more, but I think the workload is right for me. However, low and behold, my talents have been recognized and I’m taking on more responsibility than the role was benchmarked for. What are your best tips for asking for a raise in this situation?
