Started a new job Monday and already thinking of quitting. The role has changed a bit since I signed on, they're expecting me to cover a higher level employee for an unspecified time starting Monday, and no one has even reached out to onboard me or say hi. Thoughts? Am I jumping the gun?

Start applying for a new job asap. Honestly, waiting and trying it out for a couple more weeks isn’t that helpful.

If you feel like that, then you’re probably right. I had the same feeling earlier this year and stayed for almost two months, only to realize I just wasted time. I’m sure you’ll have some new opportunities soon!

Yikes, I'll be sure to avoid then! This is my fourth agency (including my internship) and I've never experienced anything quite like this. Haven't even been included on any internal team meetings or given access to materials.

Seems like a bad idea on their part to leave me out of the loop this week if they expect me to be client-facing next week on what is an objectively challenging account

Hello,

I have an MBA from the University of Chicago, not that it matters much in sales. I have always been in a consulting role but I think I can make more in sales. I have a competitive personality and I am bored.

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
