Question for the recruiters & hiring managers out there. I applied for a job titled “Office Manager and Financial & Operational Support” for a Golf Technology company directly through the company site. This is a step back career wise, with hopes of getting into the industry. I believe I am overqualified with a Masters degree and years of various experiences. I didnt eve get to the convo with a recruiter. How often do companies deny applicants for being overqualified? What are y’all’s thoughts?

I don’t believe you are overqualified. Perhaps your resume was not interesting enough or it more than likely didn’t even get past ATS.

Currently working tax at a Midsized firm, the largest in my city, and we have reached a tipping point where every additional resignation means more work for those left. The firm has only doubled down on old rhetoric demanding people back in office and 55 hrs min a week to get the work done.

This is my first white collar job, and I'm wondering if every firm is like this, if I should jump ship too, or if I'm being a stupid millennial.

Any guidance would be great.
Thanks!

I am trying to reschedule my Visa Appointment for H1B Dropbox and I see a warning that I have exceeded the limit of appointments canceled and will not be able to rescheduled until an MVR fees is paid.
I have rescheduled twice in the past.

So does that mean I cannot reschedule because I am able to go upto the reschedule page.

Thanks!

I'm a senior software engineer with 10 years of experience. I've been with my current company for 5 years. I started at 100k and now I'm only at 116k, which means they haven't even kept me up with inflation.

I'm happy and don't *want* to leave to have to get my worth. I want to ask for 150k (I've been seeing recruiters emails for 160-200), but I feel like that's going to sound outrageous to them.
