I’ve started a new job and though they have a community, it has been stagnant for a long time. Would you face the change directly with a “we’re back!” style post, or just increase the activity without acknowledging the absence?

Just walked out of FAR test, literally cried after submitting it. SIMS were something I got ripped off by, can say clearly 4 out of 8 sims I kind of missed completely...😭😭😭 don’t know if I can ever get over this

Hi Fishes,

Any suggestions for questions to ask a Manager and Director during an interview? It is a healthcare strategy/transformation role. This is the second level interview, so I did ask a few questions during the first interview with the Manager.

I want to spend $10k on a cruise to Antarctica. My wife doesn’t want to go and doesn’t think I should spend the money either. I make 200k and she makes 65k. I worked hard to get a 37k hot skill bonus from all the certs I studied for. We are recently married. I’m discouraged because I feel like I can’t save and spend my money the way I did before. I know marriage is supposed to be united financially, but since we are recently married it’s tough to give up my freedom financially. Advice?

What is the process to resign from EXL?
There seems to be no option to create a exit request

I have no idea where to post this, but is a anyone else super weirded out by LinkedIn lately? All these pictures of people using their kids as props for parental leave, or how their kid has a disorder and how proud they are? I just came across a post that was a woman lying next to her mom who had *literally* just died. I feel a little cold hearted saying it, but it is so over the top on what is supposed to be a professional network. Am I just totally out of touch?

To my writers/content creators and alike, how much do you charge to write content for someone? And do you charge them hourly or by cents per word? I’ve been offered a small contract for 10 hours per week and not sure what my rate should be or how I should set it up

What motivates you to start or keep up a side gig? Is it just having more income or a specific financial goal?

How long does it take to create a business on paper, officially?

Hello Are they any other HR licenses that are as valuable as the SHRM and HRCI ?

What is the best way to get early adopters participating in the community before officially launching it? We want it to look like a lively place before new folks pop in.

Moderators/managers for virtual communities actually have a pretty difficult job because the rules for posting have to be interpreted, there are very few hard and fast absolutes in this profession

I’ve been thinking about starting a blog for community managers. What topics would you like to see covered?

It's actually a lot of work to manage our online communities, but some people think my job sounds "fun" because I "get to" surf the internet for a living, if they only knew...

How did you get started in your career as a community manager?

When someone complains about the product in the community, do you address it publicly or privately?

Looking to create a survey to send out to our customers to get an idea of what kind of content they’d like to see from us. Any suggestions on high-value questions to ask?

Wanted to share a recent win in case this would work for anyone else in the bowl -- We started a “share some music” channel in the community and it’s amazing how a non-related topic can encourage participation.

I feel like a big part of what attracted me to community management was spending so much time in online communities myself. CMs, are you active in communities other than your own?
