I left a seasonal job as a Campground Host and it was the most rewarding experience ever! At 55 years young, the job opened me up to meeting new people from around the world! A rewarding job that allowed me to work onsite in my own travel trailer for free until the season was up!…

Assigned to a new project supporting a group of long-time friends and colleagues I was moved to a new team last year to help out with a large project. Well, it turns out that the one of the top managers there had been recruiting people from his former place of work to the…

I am burned out at my current position. I have 5 yrs until I can retire with full benefits. I have an associates degree and I want to further my education, but at this age, I just don't have the energy and even if i do get a BA/BS I won't have the experience to further my career.…

negotiating hybrid roles into fully remote roles Has anyone successfully negotiated a hybrid role into a fully remote arrangement? I have dual residency between Florida and New York and would prefer to remain in Florida. The position currently requires a few days a week in the…

Coping with leftover anger from previous job I was laid off from a very toxic job in June but got a new job immediately- which I’m very grateful for! The layoff call lasted 3 minutes and I wasn’t allowed to speak. A lot happened there. I was bullied, gaslit, forced to work until…

Hello Community, I am jumping back into the workforce, after an extended leave, due to health issues. I've been in Banking for the last 20 plus years, doing what I know how to do, but this field was "never" my dream field. In my last Banking role, I was really happy and…

Anyone here have any hacks/tips for this full time working mom who is trying to go back to school? So I’ve had quite a professional journey, I started off wanting to be a veterinarian and I got a bachelor’s degree in biology, but I eventually decided that it wasn’t right for me.…

All the jobs postings are majorly for senior positions. Is there any digital marketing position for junior level? or is this platform only for experienced women professionals?

Hi everyone, Yesterday, I received news that I was being laid off from my position — it came as a complete shock, but I’m staying positive and open to what’s next. I’ve built my career around healthcare administration, care coordination, and member support, where I’ve had the…

Hello! I'm currently looking for my first work from home job. I have the bare minimum in experience and it seems my job options are limited. I would really appreciate all the help and recommendations I could get.

Hi. I have been looking for job in my city (Houston, TX), other cities, and remote for over 18 months! I am drowning now...and scared and worried. I don't understand why I can't find something! I have a good education (MBA) and experience. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am…

I was laid off in the middle of July and have been applying for jobs. I haven't seen many job descriptions that I am actually passionate about until earlier this week. I applied and completed my first interview yesterday but I don't feel like I "nailed it" and now all of the…

I have had several job interviews for an EA role. They all ask how I would manage the exec's calendar or the exec says "how would you help me with my calendar?" My response is simple - put work blocks on times to allow for emergency meetings, try and shift things around like 1-1…

Do any support staff people have a preference on a staffing agency? I've been out of work since May. I have 15 years experience working as an admin and office assistance. I have a list of agencies who seem promising then of course the rude ghosting happens. I'm not here to…

Resume drop? I just saw an email about a resume drop on FGB. Has anyone done it? I am willing to do it but I don't want my name and resume shared with everyone, including my employer. Linkedin is different because I can choose to stay anonymous and only share with certain people.

I am a survivor of many re-orgs at the same company, technically 8 in the 9 years I have been here, with 8 different job titles and 8 different bosses, with slightly different responsibilities- but at the end of the day, it's been mostly similar work. When I try to list it all…

Does the hiring market still have opportunities for people to explore and grow talents? It seems more to me like hiring management reaches out to branded job seekers than actual talents.

My current job is getting strange and I think I need to move on. I’ve been in this job for more than 5 years. It’s actually a decent job, at a large company, that pays well, has good benefits, and allows me to work remote most of the time (90% work from home). Recently they had a…

Our dept has been ordered to RTO. One person, however, was able to somehow negotiate to continue WFH 3 days a week. The rumor is that they pleaded their case that they simply cannot afford the cost of the commute. The commute is costly no doubt. But more than the financial…

Wondering how often job applicants have been ghosted lately? It’s becoming the norm for me. If and when I get an interview. I had a virtual interview with the recruiter/HR on 9/15, then moved to a virtual interview with the hiring manager on 9/26 which seemed to go well. I was…
