32f with 2 girls and a homeloan. Is it wise to ask my husband to resign from his toxic and hectic 9 to 10 low paying job ( I am earning ~4 times his salary)
I tried hard to make him switch job but in vain(works for Private bank in backend). He agreed/interested in any small business. All Iam worried about my job security and what If he dont succeed in business.
he is a wonderful husband and a great dad, I definitely want to support him but back of the mind scared as hell. Motivation

Yaar.
I respect your decision but just asking out of curiosity.
How did you get married to guys earning so less than you.
Like I see girls demanding 3-4 times more earning guy for marriage.

Ohh. Sahi hai.
Ask him to upskill with data analytics course.
It will give him opportunities to switch to different organization and career.

Hey! Been there. I'm 31F. Have one toddler. He was working in core company where the environment was very toxic. There was no life for him due to this toxicity. We can't imagine how long it goes. So decided to take risk in this 30's. He left the job and now working on kick starting his business. Though there were some times when we face crisis financially, sometimes it is very surprising how he is evolving as a business person. There are some hard time then and there. But we are looking for better future by taking risk now. We feel these temporary setbacks are better when compared to working in toxic environment for long term. I'm supporting him by switching jobs to get better pay. I can see him evolving mentally. Earlier he was like work, deadlines, sleep repeat. Now it is far better, mentally. Hope we will be at better place soon.

Business is a bit risky thing, if its not getting affected by covid and all you can start.
Or else ask your husband to try out for other opportunities in other bank, that would be bit better, 9-10 is pretty bad schedule. When he comes back wouldn't have any peace of mind to check with family. and will have communication gap and lot of stress. Try to relax him and discuss with him for othwr opportunities outside, let him try for 2-3 months(Give him confidence even if he is not able to clear, Family support is something that is really required which eventually will land him in good job)

It's better to first try a different job rather than directly doing any business especially the conventional ones. There are plenty of private organisations which provide better work life balance although he might have to prepare or upskill himself.

I am looking into the CCP (Certified Compensation Professional). It seems to be quite an expensive exam.

If anyone else is studying, let me know and maybe we can share study materials!

For those who have taken it, are there any cheaper or alternative study materials to any official guides you would recommend? I went this route with the PHR and SHRM-SCP and passed each on the both try, so I wanted to see if that method may be viable here. Any recommended order to take courses in?

I have over 12 years in B2B sales/sales management experience along with a graduate degree. I am wanting to shift gears and I am at a point where I can invest time in myself to learn through practical experience. The new industry I am wanting to pursue is real estate investment. I have read all the books but want some hands on experience on the property management side. How could I best leverage my skills for a role in this, and what should my expectations be for negotiation in compensation?

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!

Would you guys consider leaving for a role that offers a much higher base salary but no opportunities to advance? Got an offer that’s an 85% raise adjusted for cost of living. The work seems interesting and I like the company but it’s a smaller office so I basically couldn’t get promoted unless my boss retires or quits.

We are looking to restructure our marketing team (B2B IT services) and one of the questions I have is: how does recruitment marketing / employer branding fit into the marketing team?
Over the last year EB and RM have become increasingly larger parts of our team’s work, but it’s not part of the marketing commercial targets (just helping recruitment meet their targets). Are they completely separate in your company? Or part of the team and if so how?

Had a first round interview scheduled for a large CPG brand. My interviewer never called me, and I emailed following up to confirm the call. It’s been over a day and no response. What is going on with recruiters? I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt, but not even an email back saying “something came up” or “we’ve moved on” ? I’ve been ghosted after every final interview during my recent job search, but never had I been ghosted before even having the first call??
