Things are and will be slow for a while. Two tips I could give you are: 1) Start freelancing Vs looking for a staff role. 2) Consider Healthcare / Wellness agencies. It might not be super creative, but they are steady compared to consumer.

True story... FCB Health Network (including Area 23, Neon, FCBCURE & FCB Health NY) is still hiring and expecting a few more roles to open up shortly. Otherwise, freelance is definitely a way to get in front of some potential future leads for full time.

New fish looking for career guidance.

I'm a corporate recruiter with 3 years of experience. Finishing my degree in HRM 5/2022. I'm thinking of getting my SHRM -CP shortly after graduation.

I'm not sure of where to go after that, but I doubt I will stick with recruiting or my current firm.

Has anyone here started off in recruiting and branched out to other HR functions? Do you like your new role? Do you wish you stuck with recruiting?

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
