What does it take to be able to get a job here??? I’m no longer looking to continue on with my current employer because they keep telling me that I can’t get a new position due to no experience even after 10 years of working here. I can’t get any kind of other experience because all jobs require some type of experience. Mostly 2-5 years to start off with. I’m currently working full time, have a part time job, and I’m earning my degree in finance.

Things are apparently going to get better after a client will be leaving, I’ll get to work on different brands but I am feeling pretty burnt out from the agency I’m at. Will new clients help? Or should I look elsewhere. Been at the agency almost 3 years, I feel like I need to switch things up for my sanity.

I am thinking to switch my career from being an auditor to software. How hard it is to switch? Has anyone done this? What are your experiences? Thank you.

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
