Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Hi! I know a recent grad who’s looking for an entry-level graphic or UX design position. Her internship is coming to an end soon and she’s having a hard time—feeling like she’s sending her resume/portfolio into the black abyss. It seems like the hiring frenzy is focused on experienced roles…sucks to hear that most places don’t want to take a chance on a young, hungry designer. Know of anywhere looking for new talent?

CDs, when reviewing a creative deck for the first time from your creatives, let’s say 30 pages long, each with plenty of copy, what is your reaction when you see 2-3 grammar mistakes?

Are your thoughts along the lines of, “this person is an idiot,” or “there is a lot of copy in this deck, so a mistake or two is bound to happen”?

Any offices mandating vaccinations as a condition of employment? Or introducing it as a condition of employment for new joiners? Not happening widely yet but it can’t be far off at this rate… if clients ask to deal with vaccinated staff only

Hi there, I got an offer for an early stage cyber security saas startup in Canada and they offered me 130k base and 10-15% commissions which they estimated at 160-240k additional a year. They only have 1 sales person at the moment and I would be 2nd and they are hiring for 3 more. I’ve always been on a 50:50 model and never done the % of revenue. Average deal size is 40k. I got 12 yoe in enterprise tech sales. No stock options upfront but potentially after the first 3 months. Good deal?

Hi Everyone, I have been an HR Generalist for close to 7 years. I had good managers and poor managers in between. My VP once told me not to pursue my MBA because she would teach me everything she knew. She never did. I am currently going for my SHRM SCP. I really enjoy being a Generalist but I don’t know if I want to be an HR Manager. Any suggestions on other areas of HR I should consider?

Pro tip: Never give off the perception to your manager that you have a fun life outside of work. Make them feel sorry for you otherwise they’ll inadvertently resent you for taking PTO or anything that makes it seem like you’re have fun outside of work. Trust me. Carry on.

Immigrant here. How do you guys stay motivated to keep working? It was easy enough when I was broke/in debt to grind and work really hard. For context, I am a 27 year old only child and my parents just told me they made a significant amout of money through their investments and that all of this money will be mine. Granted it isnt enough to buy lamborghinis and mansions, however it is enough to live out a normal middle class life without ever having to work, especially if invested in real estate
