I started a new Accout Executive role a month ago. I am the only AE on the team, my VP of GTM was selling prior to me. In my second week he made the decision to leave the company. I have had no training besides watching a few of his former pitches. They provided me with a…

I was working for a LGBTQA medical company. I loved the two CEOs (they are a couple and I loved the banter between them - they were so cute). Anyway, needless to save I LOVE this company, what it stands for, and watching it evolve in such a short time frame. The only problem? The…

Who has tried substitute teaching as a method of pivoting? I'm at my wits' end with my day job. They have no planning or organization, and no respect for my remote days (which as a single mother I need). I haven't had the time to create any new portfolio pieces for the work I…

How do you get past the boredom? I have a knack for finding jobs that I get bored with, I am told they are challenging and will be busy most of the time. I am finding a lot of downtime in the role I have, I like the job but I am so bored! I do ask others if they need help but…

What should you do when a start-up recruiter calls? My number one advice is to always take the first call. You get two important pieces of information from recruiters: first - an updated picture of what is available in the marketplace (jobs & pay). You also learn about your…

Interviews this week and I'm confused how to handle the situation. After months of looking for a new role, I decided to relocate after finding a position. At first I was honest about where I was currently residing and that quickly ended promising interviews. Now that I'm using a…

Trying to keep my spirits up after a layoff. I was laid off about 2 months ago and I have had interviews but no offers. It can be frusterating at times but I know I need to keep applying. I had a nice day of self pampering with my friends to help me lift up my spirits. And I…

What’s most important? I’ve been in a new job for five months and love my coworkers. They are supportive and we spend time with each other outside of work. In my line of work (sales in a retirement community for seniors) it’s essential to have a team that gels to make thing flow.…

How do I emphasize problem-solving as a jack-of-all-trades? My strengths lie in cleaning up messes and adapting to my environment. But I'm not an expert in anything. My employers run the gamut between giant multinational corporation to small school for autistic children. Example…
