Honestly, TikTok has some great content creators that have amazing tips and tricks. One tik tok-er made a resume template for people to use for free. I’ve been using it and have had amazing response! I’ve also just googled LinkedIn tips to make it pop out, did a few changes (very easy changes like changing my pic, adding a banner, etc) and got 5 recruiters who reached out same day.

This tik tok is one of my favorites for career tips. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZTdU3YYUQ/

Would you take a free haircut going into an interview or a free pair of shoes?

I’m not sure you really want a free resume service haha

Wonconsulting/jerryjhlee has some tiktoks/reels with decent advice. He sells resume services, but just take the free advice and do that for all the influencers peddling their goods.

Hi everyone
I’m interviewing at Slack and the recruiter is fantastic. She told me to take some time to think about my comp ask but that I should use my current salary at Meta as a guide but to go higher as staying at the same rate won’t do anything for the gender pay gap. I’m thinking of saying that I would like 15% higher but would also love to get an idea of what the salary range for a L6 or L7 marketer at Slack would be just to see if my expectations are in line.
Thanks in advance!

Don’t you ashamed of yourself calling as a Recruiter? These are basic manners/commonsense, which you guys are unaware of!!!

I chose $175k / 0.11% because $10k difference in the cash offer felt not worth the potential upside of more equity. It’s a risk but time will tell. Bad idea / paycut (15k)?
