I’ve been searching for an HR Manager or Senior Generalist Position for months. I check all the boxes on experience and SHRM cert but no degree. I can’t get past the ATS.

The managing partner of my office likes to make jokes about Covid now that it is “over” (either in small group convos or speeches to the office). My dad died from Covid, and I honestly feel like it’s so insensitive for him to make these comments when he knows that I lost my dad to it. Our office isn’t that big, and I don’t think many people forget being told that someone they know lost someone from Covid. It has made me consider leaving because of it, but the economy isn’t great.

How to politely decline unsolicited advice? A colleague of the same pay grade as me is leading a task and I am helping him with it. He keeps giving me unsolicited suggestions and feedback in shared chat, and he blamed me for something in a group call. I am scared that this is making me look bad in front of others when I am doing all the work assigned the best I can. How do I let him know I don’t want his advice? Is it okay if I ignore his advice or will it come off as rude?

Whoever said employers don’t care about grades and transcripts after your first job was a liar. Every lateral position that I’ve applied to as a 3rd year has requested transcripts.

Side note - it speaks volume when multiple associates are trying to lateral at the same time

The amount of people, even attorneys, who can't separate out the policy merits of abortion from the issue of whether it is a constitutional right is disappointing. I consider myself pro-choice ---I believe states should allow it, that the federal government can pass a statute to guarantee it, and that FDA statutes and regulations will preempt any state trying to ban chemical abortions through FDA approved drugs. Dobbs at its core is a case about the Due Process Clause, not the policy of abortion
