In a corporate marketing dept and have to apply for my own (current) role in order to keep it/be rehired at a different level. I thought my manager would want me to stay but I see he shared the posting on LinkedIn with his connections. Is that something he has to do to seem unbiased or should I worry?

This says to me that they’ll let you apply and interview, but they want to measure you against external candidates. That’s common if they’re considering you for a promotion, but not to keep the role you already have. I would start looking elsewhere to be safe.

That's a good question! Some places have a policy where they have to post open jobs even if they've pretty much decided on an internal candidate. But posting it to a LinkedIn circle of connections seems a little odd. Maybe he just has a habit of reposting work stuff to his circle of contacts?

He does, yes. But unless there's a hardfast company rule idk why this time.

What can you do if you’re getting interviewed by the same person who didn’t choose you in the first place?
Context: I applied for a position a while back and got interviewed, but didn’t go to the next round. I found the same position open again a month later at a different location and applied. Almost immediately, I was called for an interview, but with the same interviewer. What does this mean? Is this going to get awkward?

I had an interview w/ the Hiring Manager at  Boston Consulting Group  for a position and it went so well that the HM said on the spot I was going to be moving onto the next round. Its been weeks since that interview & I've had to follow up w/ the recruiter 3x asking for an update. I mentioned interviewing elsewhere but prioritizing BCG. He finally responded to that saying he was going to debrief with the HM and get back to me but nothing... what gives?

Hi Guys,

I am a ReactJS developer (frontend) with 3.8 years of experience. I currently switched my company but they don't have an opening for ReactJS and kept me on a bench for 3 months and they are telling me now to learn AEM technology and work on the AEM project for now.
They hired me for a package of 16 LPA.
So my questions are is it a good technology to learn? Should I say yes and have a career in it?
Will I get the same package like ReactJS or less? What is future if compared with React?

Started a new job search about 2 weeks ago. Of the 14 recruiter screening calls I’ve gone through, all went amazingly well, and I’ve only heard back at all from 4 since the calls. Why?

So I've been applying for jobs with various brands who are owned by the same parent company. They are all separate brands but owned by the same company. All my applications are under one login with the parent company's website. My question is, can HR and recruiters from the different brands see all my open applications (including those with the other brands) or just the ones that concern the brand they work for?
