Is it weird that I like applying to jobs? I just started a new role and I miss the chase (not applying now since it would be a waste/disrespectful of the hiring teams time) but I miss the rush of getting emails from recruiters and talking to other folks.

I’m right there with you. I feel like I’m better at nailing interviews than I am at my ACTUAL job. I can talk about my past experiences and most challenging projects with hiring managers all day, but I HATE when I actually get hired and have to work. 😅

Same! I’m better on cover letters. I don’t like to brag about myself. To a fault! And I think that’s my downfall. Although I know what I’ve contributed to past projects, I’ll downplay it. I feel like an imposter a lot of the times. With each interview, I try to push it a bit more but I’m afraid to cross that line into cockiness.

Serious question…Do you not get enough attention in other aspects of your life?

I get enough attention but it’s so easy to apply on LinkedIn.

I appreciate that. Might’ve gone too far with that statement. Just started FT but took it just for consistency. Still looking.

I’m grateful for the work - don’t want to sound like I’m not. I FL’d but couldn’t do the whole “I might be out of work in 2 weeks or a month” anymore.

I feel this deep in my soul. And It just always seems like there’s something better.

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!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

Recently i was scheduled for an EY GDS interview on 5th of November but no one showed up and interview did not take place , what is it mean?

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Are there any fundamental differences between a salary negotiation during the start (applying for the job) vs. Salary negotiation during a performance review (you’ve been employed for x time and looking for a raise). I’m in the latter and wondering if there are any maneuvers that are different I should be doing.

I like to apply for Product Manager roles at Amazon since I like the role. I have done front office CRM (SAP) implementations for Fortune50 clients through Accenture.
It is more of sitting with users to understand their process and map it to CRM suite and build additional features to map their specific processes.
I have also worked on sales, BD and functional spec creation for new features.
Can I count these as Product Management experience while applying for Amazon or other Faangmula?
