You learn on the job, not in any training. If you remain positive, ask good questions, and apply yourself, you’ll get the hang of it. Most people fee this way when they start consulting and very few have any background in what they work on.
I’ve been trying to do that for 8 months now. Refer to the rest of my story below for further context. I couldn’t fit it all in one post
Lmao sounds like a post from my burner account for my first job at a F500 😅😂 up until the hygiene/dress part.
I would say that WFH is a weird , grey area regarding clothing HOWEVER it sounds like you’ve maybe been in some dressed down attire on camera. I generally try to look presentable, especially if lighting isn’t great and I look tired.. that’s just beat
I was never dressed down. Our company dress code does not require us to dress business attire. I double checked by asking. I wore collared jackets or even company attire. I never looked like a bum on camera.
I wouldn’t waste more time there, start looking for a new job.
…now I would try and set up time and ask questions but a lot of the information was difficult to grasp in one sitting. Mind you the person “teaching” me was useless. Was late to every meeting and socially awkward. If I ask him what something means, he says “I want you to really look at it and tell me. You got this” and just leaves. Absolutely zero help. I struggled like this for months and would practically beg other managers to put me on diff projects only for it to never happen. During one of our convos on how to work on the project, this dude says he has friendly feedback for me. That feedback being “I think it would really help if you got up in the morning and showered and just got dressed and ready for the day. It would really help for you to kind of just face the day. I’m not saying like put makeup on but like brush your hair you know those kind of things and have your camera on *insert awkward chuckle*” I was beyond disgusted and also in absolute shock. Mind you I’ve never dressed inappropriately/provocatively/offensively. I never wore business casual through work from home calls because it’s straight up not required of us. Even if I was wearing casual clothes, I never dressed like a bum. And this wasn’t even proper feedback on the actual work I was doing

Yup try to communicate everything in email or screenshots of chats so you have a paper trail in case they continue to be negligent
