It’s Monday. And someone just started their week 35% richer.
Not because they got lucky.
Not because they had the perfect resume.
But because she finally stopped settling.

She almost said yes to the first offer.
Almost stayed quiet.
Almost played it safe.

Then she rewatched one module inside FastTrack20…
Walked in with confidence…
Negotiated like a pro…

And walked out with 35% more than her last role. 😭

Let that sink in.

Anyone have insight on comp for contract manager role?

Any PwC manufacturing folks here (Reliability/Maintenance or Prod Development). Looking for referral and also some advise on level (Mgr v Sr Mgr).

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?

Any recommendations for a female psychologist in the Alexandria,VA area?

Anyone has IBS here? Lately I have been having a lot of symptoms of IBS and even if I’m not fully constipated, I think I am to a certain extent. I had excruciating lower abdominal pain this afternoon and it was almost unbearable. Also, my period is approaching so I think my symptoms got worse. Anyone has any tips?

I’m 6 month pregnant with a good amount of lower back pain that gets worse with standing and walking. Insanely, I’d like to take my 2 older kids to Disney before the new baby arrives. Has anyone been to Disney Land (CA) and Disney World (FL)? I’m curious if Disney Land being smaller would be less walking and possibly a better option.

Hey editor fishes! How is 2021 starting off for everyone? I often find this time of year slow but so far I’ve been pretty busy!

I make 135k gross/year & am looking at apartments in a tier 2 city. 2k for a 1 bedroom or 3k for a 2 bedroom? I’ll be working from home and living by myself & a pup. The hesitancy is 3k is basically one of my paychecks after taxes. I live frugally otherwise with the exception of eating at a nice restaurant once a week. Is a two bedroom worth it?

Hello, any referrals for test lead in CGI? I also have Canada PR

At this point in career, would you take a step down in title to grab a transfer opportunity and get out of a toxic work environment ?

Any good Marriott in NYC? Flying into LGA.

Debating a role in the c-suite advisory capacity. In general, is it better to have exposure to higher level within the organization for career growth?

I know most of you would appreciate the exposure and opportunity to shine, but I'm worried about risks/failures and mission criticalness/time sensitivity of the role itself. Is it simply just a matter of high risk high reward.

We're seeing a lot of hiring freezes happening in the tech space, with the exception of some high growth startups. Is this affecting anyone else?

Hi fishes, my friend recently had a bitter experience with Dish Network. So her profile was shortlisted and they asked few questions over email. It did take good 2hrs to answer and she replied back. HM said we are good to go for interview and sent an invite. On the day of interview nobody turned up, neither they gave an update later. She did follow up for a couple of days but no response. Is there any reason why this happens ? Me being in HR field felt this to be a little unprofessional.

*URGENT JOB NEEDED* - BDM/E-com account management roles
Hey all, as I see a lot of recruiters in this group I wanted to know if anyone is hiring for BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER or E-COM ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT or VENDOR MANAGEMENT roles.
My husband is relentlessly trying to get a job in Canada/US but he is getting either regret mails or no response for referrals.
It would be really helpful if there is anyone is hiring for such roles or if you can refer to those roles in your organization. TIA :)

Looking to expand my knowledge with tech recruitment and also management. Anyone have any advice?

Hi there! I am current a recruiter at google on contract. My contract is 2 years, and I’m coming up at the year and a half mark. Are there ANY tech companies hiring?! We’re in such a lull on the FAANG side of things… thanks’

I am a technical recruiter with three years of experience. I am currently interviewing at a series B tech start up located in CA for a fully remote position. I am currently in Texas and don’t have to pay state income taxes. I am making about 90 K and would love to bump up my salary from there. My question is, what is a fair salary to ask for that will factor in both the new income tax and a raise? My other question is what is a fair salary in general for somebody with three years experience?

Are there any tech or DEI related networking groups that anyone utilizes or finds helpful when sourcing?

What AI tools should one consider for tech recruiting ? And has anyone heard of Celential AI

Would really appreciate everyones feedback.

Hello! I’m a Talent Acquisition Manager at a 300 FTE sized gov contractor with 2 recruiters under me. One of my recruiters and I are both having babies in August and will be out for 12 weeks. She’s only coming back part time. My leadership already said no to hiring another full time recruiter. Has anyone had any good experience with contract recruiters? Or any advice for a short term solution?

Agency recruitment managers! How do y’all set goals for your department? Do you focus on outreach goals, applicant goals, purely hiring goals no matter the outreach numbers, conversion rates, etc? Asking because I manage two recruiters working with different clients and both work with different styles, so outreach messages for one might not make sense for the other. Any insight would be so helpful!

What are some sourcing avenues you will use to hire niche positions?

Any ideas on how to negotiate a delayed start date? I really want it to be Jan. My mental health needs some time off and this company breezed through interviews to offer in 1 week when I was expecting it to take at least a month. I really need some time to recover from burnout.
