Hi & welcome.
Tell me your stories. Why made you decide to choose a career that's different and creative? I'll start. I am an extrovert. I am not very keen of studying and that, ideally is the reason why engineering or medical was not my cup of tea. I chose Journalism and Mass Media. In the academics, we had multiple subjects and one of them was Writing for media. This was the beginning. This is where I thought I can be a writer. A Content Writer. Besides this, I am love Rhyming Words.
Your turn

If a recruiter asks me if I’ve spoken to another recruiter at the company, is it okay if I lie and say no? Or should I just be honest and say yes? I’ve heard of instances where candidates have been ghosted if they say they’ve been in contact with another recruiter. In my case, the recruiter I was in contact with messaged me on LinkedIn and never followed up after our 5 minute phone conversation. I really want this job so I don’t want to mess anything up before getting an interview.

Hey 🐟 fam. I’m starting a new gig next week that’s 90% WFH. I’d love some recommendations on a second monitor. Nothing crazy pricy, but something that’ll work well with my MacBook Pro. Thanks y’all.

I used a phrase “our brethren” in a meeting and got dinged by the HR team. Apparently it’s a not an appropriate phrase to use in a professional setting because it’s sexist 😳
