My friend finally got her job back after they laid her off. I’m so excited for her. It’s been a long time coming. Anyone have any success stories they want to share?

Oh, wow! That's awesome. I feel like you never hear stories like this. I wonder why they did layoffs just to rehire? Never heard of that. I just got bumped over to our new store and promoted to store manager, so that's my good news 💃

I believe they needed people because of the work load that they are experiencing. I guess they didn’t want to hire anyone new. Congratulations to you. I know you are excited. Cheers to new beginnings.

No way, that's great to hear! It's not so much a success in the sense I can't take credit for it, but we finally hired another AM after one of our others left 4 months ago and I could do cartwheels I'm so happy. I was working OT pretty much every week since and will FINALLY get back to a more normal schedule now that we have someone else to help out. Very excited about it!

That’s great news. I know you were exhausted with the workload you were experiencing. I was once in that position until my company hired someone new.

Good for her!!!! I don’t have any recent success stories of my own to share but it is good to hear other people are having more luck!

A good friend of mine graduated from Parsons this past summer, has degrees in Journalism and French, is a talented photographer and designer (which I feel I have a pretty decent eye for after working at a design-driven branding agency for half a decade). And I’m certain she’d make a fabulous junior AD or content strategist. Unfortunately she, like many in this pandemic, is still without a job. Any advice for her and/or shops/hiring managers/non-traditional job hunt tips to steer her towards?

Just finishing my first week in as an audit intern and genuinely I have no idea what I'm doing or even a general idea of the audit process. The senior associate left the engagement last week so it's just me and an associate, and they don't have time to give me instruction.

Am I stupid or did the e-learns not prepare me for any of this? The training told me I'd be auditing cash but I haven't even touched a bank reconciliation.

I’ve worked at the same well known tech company since I graduated school 8 years ago. I’ve been promoted 3 times so I’ve held a few different jobs within my org.

BUT .. I’ve applied to a few companies and getting no responses. Is it a deterrent for hiring managers/recruiters that my experience is based primarily at one company?
