Not career advice, but life advice:

You get what you pay for with cruises. If you want to be surrounded by white trash, go with Carnival.

I work for a large, legacy technology company that hasn’t been faring so well lately. I have a fantastic manager who cares about my growth, a supportive team, I’m well compensated...but I don’t believe in the product that I have to sell.

Based on stock prices, press, and exec turnover, I don’t know what to do. There are more positives than negatives but it’s hard to be inspired (or confident) much lately. We are a decade behind newer tech companies

In desperate need of referrals/recommendations for a reverse recruiter or headhunters that work for job seekers rather than employers. I’ve been job searching and interviewing for 2 years now and I can’t take it anymore! I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, the most it’s taken in the past was 5 months to get a job. I’ve spent money on resume services and a career coach so I’ve also invested money that’s landed me nowhere. I can’t think of anything else to try 😔

Hi everyone,
I want to have a career advice. I have recently started a full time job in gaming industry for 2 months as a jr manager. Previously i never worked in this industry nor in this position were i am working now. I am trying my best to do the tasks but its really hard. I am not liking it at all. I don’t have much resources to learn it online also. I am struggling and having a bad day almost everyday. What to do? Losing the energy to look for other job after work. Its only 2 months…

I have been struggling in my job search trying to get back into my desired industry, entertainment, after having to take a job in real estate during the pandemic. Similar roles just different industry. Despite applying for a variety jobs with different qualification levels, I have not even gotten an interview for any jobs I have applied for over the past six months. Some I even am a top match for based on my LinkedIn skills. I know I can prove myself in a interview. How do I get past this gate?
