Were you expected to be "strong" in school from a young age through college? Now that I'm in graduate school I still notice some aspects of this, but really I remember it from Elementary school when I was always expected to take the high road, ignore bullies, and be totally ok with being disregarded for the most part. Do you feel like you're still expected to be strong at work in adulthood?

All the time. Anytime I was made fun of or bullied it was "oh you just need to be strong." But I didn't hear them saying that to other kids that weren't the same color as me. And I feel like I have heard it even in my adult life and it drives me insane. Futher proof we are not all held to the same standards.

100%. Whenever I tried expressing stress as a student I was accused of being aggressive, or overdramatic, when I just needed help. It's less pervasive in corporate, but I don't think the expectation is gone.

I wasn’t. When I had an issue in school, my parents were there to defend me and then some. My parents really strived to instill confidence in me and reminded me to hold my head high to shine. I feel pretty confident in resolving issues now and know when to ask for and accept help. I was surprised to learn how common this “strong” expectation was for some Black women though. How is the expectation impacting you in graduate school?

Resume question I've had three positions over my career one of which lasted 3 months and that I got fired from, the job search took an additional 2 months. Is it worth it to leave the 3 month stint off my resume? It might be easier to explain getting fired then a 5-month gap I was thinking

Most HRs these days ask for previous salary slips/ bonus/hike letters without even quoting their offer. Should we proceed with what they want? Is it ethical? Any pros/cons
Any views?
I am thinking beyond just verifying if the candidate is not lying on the current salary but what if they don't even have the budget to what the candidate has asked as expectation.

Hey everyone!! Hoping I can get some insight on HRCM platforms like PeopleGuru. Does anyone have experience using this platform in a cannabis company? We are desperately needing yo streamline and entertaining the idea of switching from our current systems (3 at least, to the do the job of 1). I would love to hear about your experience, pros, and cons of using PeopleGuru. Thank you to everyone in this helpful community!
