I have been working for 13 years with a decent growth but I felt like my career needed some additional push to continue or accelerate my growth into senior leadership positions. Also, I consider myself average in terms of leadership skills and felt the need to define my true leadership identity.

The ability to continue making income to support my family is a big deal. The opportunities to learn alongside executives and up and coming executives should not be ignored either. I felt I needed more c suite level executive education to pursue my own goals to start a non profit but also to accelerate my career and learn how to really help the big decision makers as the begin to lead their companies.

Currently 6 years at job A at 100K and 10K annual bonus but lil to no upward mobility. It's safe if not going anywhere.

Recruiter reached out regarding Job B at 130K with greater advancement potential but it starts out at 6 Months Contract to Hire per the agency contract. No bonus, benefits adequate by comparison. There is no guarantee to go full time.

Interview just for practice?

After 18 years, I lost my art room to a classroom this year in order to spread out kids due to Covit19. They said we can’t hand out papers.. kinda thinking art is remote for all. I will do lessons on google classroom with live lesson to classrooms and home. I was told special area teachers may be “repurposed”. We will be used like a TA. One class will be spread out two rooms.Aday teacher in one room, I help in other room. B day teachers switch 😳😷☹️.. I know I’m lucky to have a job but.
