Leaving my first job out of undergrad next week. Any tips before I head out and how to calm the nerves? I really like my people but this opportunity is to good to pass up.

Even without LinkedIn, I see a lot of people younger than me in much better roles. They started off with relevant jobs right out of college.

I’m constantly comparing myself to others who are younger than me.

Hello! I’m currently a Administrative assistant now working at a major medical system in Baltimore. I’ve previously worked for 10 years as a medical assistant in a variety of specialties and primary care. Lately, I’ve been feeling a bit stuck as to my next step.

And how would I be able to cross over to management?

Our diocese has decided on full return 5 days/ week for all 42 schools despite a recent increase in COVID in our communities.
