Conflicted about my company's non-response to current events
After #MeToo exploded, my company wasted absolutely zero time putting together videos and conference calls and emails regarding how they did not tolerate sexual harassment of ANY sort. The CEO made statements. The VPs made statements. Their employees would be protected against this sort of thing, no questions asked.
But now that #JusticeforGeorgeFloyd has gripped the country, there's been complete silence from my company. Not an email. Not a blog post. Nothing on social media. I know that the novel coronavirus has hit my industry especially hard and god knows that as a black woman, I don't want just PR lip service because racial inequality happens to be trending. But the fact that my company hasn't even addressed it internally makes me feel exceedingly uncomfortable as each day goes by to the sound of crickets.
I feel like I should just suck it up, chalk it up to being the only black person left in the department after layoffs and furloughs (I should be thankful I have a job, etc etc), especially considering the vitriol I've seen from non-black people focusing entirely on the violent protests enacted by the few instead of the peaceful protests held by the majority.

Hi,
I wanted to get some other perspectives from anyone that has become a mum and feels like they need to/want to take a step back in their career? I don't know if my experience is unusual or if this is a common thing that happens. I have a very limited village, so any illness or issue means I have to take time off work etc. and progressing in my career in a high stress environment doesn't feel sustainable alongside the home life pressure. Is anyone willing to share their experiences?

Tired of filling out job application forms? You are not alone!
Job searching can be draining, and one of the biggest hurdles is the sheer volume of applications. Don't let application fatigue slow you down. Here's a simple, step-by-step guide to help you power through:
Step 1: Optimize Your Resume for Each Role, Efficiently!
Instead of rewriting your entire resume for every job, focus on targeted tweaks. Identify 3-5 keywords from the job description and make sure they appear naturally in your resume, especially in your summary and experience sections. Use an AI tool or a word cloud generator to quickly spot these keywords in the job posting. This saves time and significantly increases your chances of passing applicant tracking systems (ATS).
Step 2: Craft a Concise, Impactful Cover Letter Template
Stop writing unique cover letters from scratch. Develop a master template that includes sections for your introduction, your key skills and achievements, and a strong closing. For each application, simply customize the company name, job title, and one or two sentences that specifically highlight why you're a perfect fit for this particular role. Keep it brief – three paragraphs are usually enough.
Step 3: Set Application Limits (and Stick to Them!)
It's tempting to apply for everything, but this often leads to burnout. Decide on a realistic number of applications you'll submit each day or week (e.g., 3-5 quality applications per day). Once you hit that number, stop! Use the extra time to network, learn new skills, or simply recharge. This helps maintain your energy and focus, ensuring each application gets the attention it deserves.

Hello everyone, I will be re-entering the job market at the start of next year.
I work in the health insurance industry and my job is suddenly not looking so stable. I've been warned I might get a minor hour/pay reduction next year depending on how many clients we lose, best case is 10% and worst case is 25%. I know I'm 'safe' for this AEP - I'm the only receptionist for a family business with 2K clients. If they let me go they would not be able to function. But next AEP is not as guarenteed depending on how bad it gets this and next year, and I'm not waiting to find out. So after this AEP, I'm going to be looking for a new job.
I have not job hunted in about 2 years. How much different is it? I have solid experience in office work and that's mostly what my education was focused on (that and business). Last time I job hunted is when AI was just starting to make it's way into the job application field, and I loathe to find out how pervasive it is now.
