What do you say when doing cold outreach networking online? Starting the job hunt and feel weird since I've got nothing to offer in return for folks' time. Got left on read a few times and am now paranoid about my messaging

I feel the same! I’m trying to connect with them on human level. And then perhaps go in for the ask later. But it also feel manipulative.

Hello! New to Fishbowl! I am looking for a mentor. I was a stay at home mom and have decided to return to the workforce after my divorce. I am currently a TA but I desire to move into HRIS. I am currently working for a start-up e-commerce logistics company. Accepted the offer in efforts to “get my foot in the door” but I feel like I’m grossly underpaid and unfulfilled bc I didn’t know how to leverage my skills. So I’m looking for guidance on how to make this transition. Thanks in advance!

Hoping to find someone who can help guide an early career shift to management (recruiting externally). Anyone willing to share their wisdom?

Two cents intro:
Am coming from the B2B tech advanced analytics space. Have also thought about consulting IC work, since it can be very people-forward. My goal is to make my daily people-first rather than code-first. Since I like corporate and helping folks and projects grow, analytics management seems ideal.

My ASM is lazy and is incapable of doing the easiest basic tasks with recruitment.
