Resume dilemma. I recently joined a firm, but after 6 weeks, it's clear I don't belong. I'm bored, don't fit the culture, and my experience isn't valued. I have a solid past with other employers (6 years at one, 4 at another), should I exclude this brief role (gap) or include it and explain the quick departure on my resume?

I’d personally include it, especially if there’s any chance it might show up during a background check or employment verification. I’d rather be upfront and briefly explain why it wasn’t the right fit than risk raising a red flag by leaving it off entirely. Controlling the narrative gives you the chance to show self-awareness and professionalism.

I wouldn't add it, since you don't have things to say about it. If your track record is solid, you can leave the short stint off your resume, especially if you're already job hunting again. One short gap won’t raise eyebrows, and it’s better than explaining a role that didn’t add value.

I’d probably leave it off if it’s only been six weeks and doesn’t add much value to your story. Gaps aren’t the red flags they used to be, especially with strong long-term roles backing you up. But if you do include it, keep the explanation simple and neutral. Have you already started applying elsewhere or still weighing options?

Don’t add it. It’s not relevant, and no it won’t show in your background unless you add it as an employer. Just explained the gap is due to “job hunting”

Why do leaders keep comparing how “good”the new staff/seniors have it because they make more money starting out then they did and working 55 hours is better than the 70-80 hours they used to work? Instead they should compare what options they have available to them and what their goals are.

So I just started a new job in sales (B2B specifically). All my life I’ve been in blue collar jobs, military, then construction work ect. I don’t have much money saved to get myself my own business cards as I’m sure they are important to have, I’ve got all the info that I need to go out and start selling. I guess what I’m looking for is just tips on how you guys were successful walking into a whole new arena if that makes sense?

We have a lot of leads coming in from “web direct” lead source. Assuming a lot of this is due to cookies, but any advice for solutions / assumptions to make to better track lead sources?
