I’m in the Financial advisor bowl and have enjoyed reading other industry’s points of view in this Coronavirus bowl but I think letting non industry people into the industry specific bowls would ruin them.

I know. I wish they would invite us to other bowls. There isn't a way to search either. Unless you're invited there are many different bowls to join.

I know there is industry bowls for education.

AD1, can you invite us to your industry bowls please?

SC2, thank you :)

I'm always good.

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.
