Does anyone know how much a catalog lead makes and what their career path is ?

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad. I’ve worked twice as hard and feel like I’ve barely even gotten half as much. It’s discouraging sometimes especially because I worked so hard with pretty much no guidance (first gen, poc, low-income) to get into college and do well and then get into a t30 law school

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

I have looked into getting SHRM certification. But should I go back to school and get my masters in Hr?

I have offers from different organization, Could you please help me to decide which one would be great choice.
All are for Bigdata profile with almost same package.

Deciding factor- Job security, WLB, yearly hike and scope of learning.

I received a 2 year continued service agreement costing $12,000 in effect fot individuals who 'leave voluntarily' within the allotted timeframe. Will I actually have to pay for the costs of training if I don't end up liking the job? Are these enforceable? What are the parameters of 'leaving voluntarily?' Thank you!

Hello - decade old question. ..

Medium fish in a medium pond.. or small fish in a big pond?

29M. Have had plenty of success within my current organisation. I feel like I'm over-staying in my organisation .. clocking close to 7 years under my belt.

But if I were to make a move .. it'd be ground zero all again

Anyone here works for Johnson Controls? I have heard mixed reviews about the company. Not sure if I should make the jump based on what I’ve heard so far. For context, I am looking at a security account executive role.

Is it possible for someone without a degree or tech experience to get a fully remote entry level SDR or BDR role? If so, how? My sister’s boyfriend was fairly successful at a call center a few years ago but has only worked low wage jobs since. Any steady job would be a step up. My current employer wants 2+ YOE in a “professional environment” for the BDR role, which would likely be a barrier even with a referral.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities. In an effort to make my job opportunity appealing, I am asking everyone in this bowl about an appropriate job title. Is "Administrative Assistant" outdated or unappealing? I certainly don't want to mislead anyone on the job responsibilities, but I do want to avoid any potential negative stereotypes attached to that job title. Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?

Hello, I’m about 3 and a half years as a clinical data manager. Does anyone have any advice in how I can progress my career?

I’m working a Principal TPM for a FinTech firm offering digital payments platform. I have 10+ YOE and recently got MBA. One of my focus areas in MBA was business analytics where i learnt ML and NLP using R. Now, I’ll go for PMP next and thinking to pick up Google Cloud and go down Architect route. I have used AWS in the past but don’t want to pursue it further as it has grown a lot and will take me years to learn. Also, Competition! What do you folks think? What would you recommend otherwise?

CCTC - 17
UKG offer - 22 Fixed + 1.76 Performance bonus

Any suggestions?

Reading “the call” posts on LinkedIn is a cold reminder to be grateful for having a job. Too many career employees who gave their prime years to their employers are having to face a daunting job market. I pray many of them land on their feet, and truly hope they don’t face too much age discrimination. Any one of us could be or has been in similar shoes....

Happy Wednesday everyone. I'm so excited, I have a recruiter call scheduled with @Meta for Administrative Partner position. I've been in my current employer role for 19 years and I'm nervous as heck. I haven't had to do an interview in so long. Can someone please tell me what to expect with the recruiter call? I'm assuming it will be mostly about the role, my skills and background? Do they ask salary expectations? I have no idea what to say for the salary question. Feedback appreciated. Thanks

I’m planning to get my PMP either by end of this year or in early 2023. I’m a marketing PM with with a mix of agency and in-house experience totaling just under 4 years. I’d appreciate to hear any tips on applying for the PMP, the exam, and thoughts on relevance of the PMP in general

When a new type of project comes in and you get assigned as the PM to “figure out” the project plan, how do you go about resource allocation? Sometimes I struggle to know what the team configuration should even be, because we’ve never done said project type before. It’s hard to know what type of people should be assigned, and at what % time, when there isn’t a preexisting process or work breakdown structure for the deliverables I’m being handed to “manage.” How do/would you handle?

What are typical PM title structures? I know they are a bit different everywhere. I’m building a team from the ground up and am curious what other agencies and in house teams look like. Thanks!
