Stuck in transit! I’m an advertising professional with over 4+ years of experience from India. I moved to Canada and got a postgraduate in Marketing. I’m trying to get my foot in the door at Canadian agencies to continue my professional journey and need help. I’m open to internships, part time roles and full tome roles to learn and grow here. Would love to connect over career advice and more!

Hello,
Can we get promotion after the mid year review in CitiusTech?
Or the promotion for the mid year already done?
I see for many people the designation has changed but for me it's not. I was under the impression that the promotion happens after the mid year discussion or after the year end discussion.
Can someone please tell the details and when we can expect the new revised letter mentioning the new designation.

I’m an SE who works 2 AE’s, and from looking at the market am on the bottom end of the pay scale. The company I work for has many different products/services (80+), so they wanted SEs to take on a local “SME” role in a specific area, to support other members of the team.

This role has ramped up quite a bit recently, and people have been coming to me for help with their deals (overviews, demos, POCs) which is increasing my workload.

How would you approach asking for more money here? Thanks!
