We have a few on my campus, but good collaboration going on so they seem okay.

Hang in there!

I’m a second year teacher, but I am still taking online classes to finish up certification.

I havent taught a real full year yet. Last year I got hired as a student teacher and took over the classroom from a long term sub mid year, graduated in December and finished the year. Now this year this happens. Hopefully next year I’ll get to do a whole year!

I recently joined a company of 400 people as the only Talent Acquisition Specialist. I feel like the role I'm doing is so much more than a Specialist level.

I'm trying to recruit on 15+ different positions while trying to manage so many other ongoing projects and requests. How do I bring this up without sounding like I'm complaining? Is it worth saying something?
