Gossippy woman is manager?
Two people in my group were recently promoted and they both gossip and make up lies about others. It is petty and shows their insecurities. I am looking for other opportunities because some of the gossip is about me. I regret accepting a position there and had no way to know that this…

Being Director of HR, I have my hands in a lot of things HR related within the department.
My boss is the brother of the owner and VP of HR. About 2 1/2 years ago, I went to my boss, and told him I had had it with one of my assistants (I had two). She was constantly abrasive with our store personnel and even though I had been her supervisor for ten years and covered it on…

Make an appointment with your career center. They may offer free aptitude tests that will help you narrow down your best options. They can also help you tailor your resume to different fields. Also, do you plan to continue your academic pursuits? If so, try to find work in that field so that you can get used to the environment to see if that path is really what you want to follow. You can check to see if the company will sponsor your education in the field. Another great avenue would be to look at jobs at your university or in a city you plan to settle in. There are always admin jobs posted. This will also provide the means for you to continue your education.
