I’ve noticed more tech professionals asking about learning budgets and growth plans. It tells me career development is becoming a priority again. What growth support do you look for in a company?

I always come into an interview with a solid career plan, I want to express that I want to be committed to the company - not just a role. It’s always been a great conversation.

That mindset really stands out. Hiring teams love seeing long term thinking and commitment beyond just the next title.

In my experience career budget and courses are nice, but you can hardly dedicate enough time to actually apply what you learned in a decent way. The things I think make the most difference are people better than you that you can learn from. That's where the strongest learning comes from. It should be people actually willing and open to teach you and lead by example, not people enjoying correcting you, if you know what I mean.

Completely agree. Budget helps, but real growth comes from strong mentors, good feedback, and teams that truly invest in teaching.

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.
