They will not blame a staff for the client firing the firm. There is so much more involved when that happens. Blame will be placed at higher levels than a staff.

That being said, you need to step up your game so you deliver on time and allow those above you adequate time to review. That criticism will (and should) be part of your annual reviews.

No. You're most likely totally fine. If you are in a super small market, you might have to travel more. Not a big deal.

Good Morning all,

Since I pivoted into TA (from the Wild West known as Finance) Tech Recruiting has always been the goal. But I’m having a hard time finding a way to get into that space (I do understand there’s a hiring crisis). Nevertheless, does anyone know of tech companies that are hiring? I may be low on the experience side so I’m willing to look at contract/ entry roles as well. Also, any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
