I've recently started this new job, and I feel scared that I'm not going to be able to actually increase engagement across all social media platforms. I know that's what I'm supposed to be doing. But what if I can't make it happen?

Research, research, research. The more videos you watch, books you read, podcasts you listen to, etc... it will become second nature to you. They don't expect you to be perfect at first. Everyone starts somewhere. You've got this!

That means a lot. I'm feeling so nervous and suddenly completely unqualified. Trying to take deep breaths here....

That's pretty normal. Just give your best and don't be too hard on yourself. Also, don't hesitate to ask for help or questions.

You've got it. Dont, worry. What you are feeling now is normal. Soon you'll get in the swing of things and you won't even be thinking about it.

A good place to start is posting content that asks questions. People inherently want to talk about themselves, so asking them questions that are related to the product or service you’re working on is a good start. Ex: if you work for a book company, then do a poll asking what they drink while they read.

New midlevel associate at a big law firm and still ramping up. I’m having a lot of trouble tackling small or discrete tasks that are either administrative in nature or otherwise because I don’t have a full plate and something to focus on. I feel bad stopping in the middle of the day and doing something else (e.g. watching tv)since I’m already not billing many hours, but my brain feels all over the place and think that may be the only solution. Anyone have exp. with this or advice?

We had a team touchbase where we as a group were asked our concerns regarding year end. I raised my concerns about staffing/expectations (the team is 75% new) since last year was demanding with us being up to 1 AM the day before deadline.

My director was on the call but not my VP. My VP reached out today and said he doesn’t appreciate hearing such comments on the grapevine but I was confused b/c all i did was answer the question I was asked.

Hello. Just curious on what's the salary ceiling for a manager position at Deloitte? Received a verbal offer and waiting on written offer. I was told by a recruiter that M at Deloitte doesn't make more than 180. Just curious if that's actually true and if anyone had experience negotiating higher salary than 180.

Tax is also getting deducted, I'm paying hefty emis.
What can I do?
Please advise 🙂
