What is the best way to begin a transition from a help desk job to an actual career path in IT? I’m getting close to being at my current job for a year, however I have a lot of experience in the tech field, which is what landed me this job without any actual IT background. I definitely feel over qualified and under paid in the position I am in now, and looking for the next step towards an IT career. Any advice would not fall on deaf ears. TIA

Hey everyone. I found out we are expecting our first child and I’m really nervous. I got into consulting one year ago and I’m up for promotion this year. With timing of our performance conversations I would have to inform I’m pregnant before outcomes - then shortly after the promotion effective date I would go on a leave for due date. I’ve worked really hard and I’m worried our wonderful news will throw chances with this :(- also if I don’t get promoted pretty sure it’s up or out. Any advice?

If I'm already holding an offer and continue interviewing, when the HR asks me about any existing offers - should I mention about the offer or wait till the technical rounds are cleared? What are the pros and cons of being honest here?
I lost an interview as I was honest about an offer in hand. They don't interview people with offers in hand it seems.
Should I just never mention the offer in hand and choose one offer based on my preferences at the end?

Has anyone switched from security to police work? Or should I go for law?

24, final year of university rn. Feeling burnt out from writing papers and want to make money but I dont know if going to law school or into a career would be more productive.

Advice pls. I feel somewhat stuck

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.
