How to leave a new job for a better one? I have been job hunting for more than a year due to a layoff. It's a brutal job market as we all know. I am in the midst of consideration for 4 roles, one of which I really want and would be a step up. I am due to receive an offer for…
I could use some advice... I started my job 10 months ago, I work for a non-profit that is government funded. I was hired on their first dedicated recruiter on their HR team, and it's be awful so far. The team is dysfunctional at the least and allows for unethical, at times even…

Does anyone have advice on how to word a resignation when you have a 60-day contract? In my industry, you need to give at least a 60-day notice which is unrealistic because a new job won't wait & hold a job for full 60 days, I imagine. I'm in the process of applying for a new job…
