Keep your head up, in Dec i went all the way through final interviews at Google only to be rejected at the end, than in Jan i interviewed more than 19 times over the phone with the likes of Uber, more Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc. etc. all to be turned down. Finally I was able to move toward a final around with Google and did really well, I'll soon be moving on to final approval process hopefully... so keep at it... it was a rollar coaster ride for 2 months for sure...

Has anyone successfully made the career move from an HR specialization to an HRBP role? If so, how? I have been working for 7 years in a very niche HR specialization and while I wear many hats on the HR team, I feel like this is hard to express to recruiters or even get an interview for an HRBP role. My niche area has really burnt me out, as it’s very political and I want to expand my horizons. I am already working on completing my GPHR certification. Any other tips?

Hi,
My current company is going out of business next week. I am rushing to get my next job lined up (probably won’t happen in time but I’m trying my best).

Please share your thoughts and wisdom! Thanks!

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up.

This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

Inspired by one of my kids' favorite books, I penned this masterpiece of an Ode to Consulting:

Bring along another four
Five senior managers come overdressed
Six managers show up with a guest
Seven senior consultants arrive in a sack
Eight associates sneak in the back
Nine analysts come to work
ALL THE CONSULTANTS GO BERSERK!!!

Ok, I'll show myself out now... 😂
