Starting to see the writing on the walls, went ahead and got an offer else where but thinking I’ll decline. I don’t want to take the job and leave in a few months to a year. But feeling like I need to ply the game so I don’t go 1-6 months without a job. Thoughts advice.

Good evening Everyone, I have been a PSR for 10 years with the same company, but worked for 5 different practices.

Hi Everyone,

I am currently working at Meta as a Recruiting Coordinator under contract. That contract will soon come to term in July. There hasn’t been any talks about extending my contract, so I am getting very nervous about potentially being out of work in July. I am a first gen corporate worker, and I have about 5 years of experience in recruitment. I have also recently finished my Masters in HR Management, so I wanted to jump on here and see if anyone has any tips for landing a new role?

What is a typical promotion pay increase?

I am interested in getting an executive career coach to help me understand how to get from where I am at now to an executive one day. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on company or a person

I work in security and would love one day to transition more of strategic business leader. I would want this career coach to understand the field and the path to success and have connections to be able to do this.

I began a new position 2 months ago and took on a managerial position where I oversee a team and a week ago, my manager and I was discussing a delay that happened and how she gave my team feedback and suddenly she said to me that she doesn’t mind restructuring the team and make it a team where everyone reports to her. She also said that the only reason she is “allowing” me to lead is to gain management experience. I was shocked because I got hired as an experienced manager. What would you do?

Is it worth moving just for money?

Does anyone have a sales resume that I can use as a template? Thanks in advance.

I was given a promotion 6mos ago & told that the position was a lateral move & a raise would be given at my 6 month mark. Throughout my time at time at this company I’ve realized that they call people in to give their raise on the exact date of milestones (i.e: 6 mos, 1yr, & so on). It’s now been one week since my 6 months in this new position. I’d like to reach out to my boss and set up a meeting to review my work & discuss a raise. Should I wait a bit longer or should I set this up now?
