Heard from a few recruiter friends that it's the worst it's been in years. Firms are just taking in a large volume of graduates and training them up.

Same for me, and I'm expecting it will get worse.

It's bad in almost every field except government or government-subsidized or low-level menial jobs. It's worse if you're at least 55.

Agree that it becomes more difficult if you are the older worker. Some successful people are financially secure by the time they reach their 50's. Definitely not everyone though.

Pls, any news?

Hi, I am looking for a full time content writing role. (1.5 years of experience)

I had a non traditional path out of law school because I graduated at the height of the Great Recession and my mother was seriously I’ll with cancer. I’ve worked for 2 big four firms in internal positions within compliance/regulatory for a total of 6+ years and am ready to make a move. What is my next best one? Is it totally impossible for me to go to a law firm?

🥹 I’d like to apologize to my parent’s neighbors and anyone else that heard me screaming like a lunatic at my dog. He wasn’t listening the first few times I called him to come inside nicely. 😤 It takes me sounding like I’m having a nervous breakdown for him to wag his tail like, “🤪 Why didn’t you just say so?” Pic of the pupper giving me the death stare behind my dad’s feet.

I started a new job last monday; this is my first corporate job after college. My senior manager ( my manager’s manager) scheduled a 1:1 with me on Friday and she expects me to have questions.
What should ask? I'm already being trained by my peers, so I don't really understand the dynamic.

I've been thinking about my career a lot lately. I feel like I've hit a wall, and I don't know how to get past it.

I've been at this job for almost 5 years now, and ever since the day I started, there have been problems with my coworkers. It's not just one person—it's everyone in my department, and they all seem to be working against each other instead of together. Should I leave?
