I currently work as an account manager at a tech company and I am trying to pivot into people ops/recruiting but it has been a real struggle to get my foot in the door. My CV seems to be strong enough to get me some interviews but I keep hitting a wall. Any advice is much appreciated.

What am I doing wrong? Help!

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year.

Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.
