Well there’s been a lot of rejection in 2020, but I finally accepted a role at a new employer today. It may not be my “dream” but I believe my possibilities are endless and they are aware of my long-term career goals. Finally some good news after all the negatives the previous year has brought me.

This might be a long shot but I'm looking for a volunteer who is trying to break into a federal career. Maybe a transitioning veteran, recent grad, or career-changer.

The single session is all I'm asking but could certainly turn into a longer lasting coaching relationship (at no cost), if you like.

2) Can I tell them I’m going to McKinsey? Can they revert the severance?
