I think one piece of career advice has quietly become outdated.
For years we've been told:
"Always chase the next promotion."
I'm not sure that's always the right answer anymore.
Sometimes the better move is:
learning a skill that will be valuable five years from now working for a manager who will invest in your growth joining a company where you'll solve bigger problems taking a lateral move that opens more doors later staying put long enough to build real expertise
The best career decision isn't always the one that gives you the biggest title today.
Sometimes it's the one that creates the most opportunities tomorrow.
I've started thinking less about "What's my next job?"
And more about:
"What decision gives Future Me the most options?"
That one question has completely changed how I look at careers.
What's the best career decision you ever made that didn't make sense to other people at the time?

what do you think makes the biggest difference?]
For those who’ve applied for jobs with limited experience, what do you think makes the biggest difference: a strong reference, a well-written resume, relevant skills, or personal connections? I’d be interested to hear what actually worked for you. #jobsearch #interview #resume #advice #application
Jobs not matching my resume
Anyone else getting job recommendations for a truck driving position or other non-relevant positions? I do, even when there isn't a single reference to me looking for any type of driving role or any previous experience driving for a living listed on my resume?

Was a cashier under 90 days and became a Department Manger over mens and boy.
It was a new experience for me eager to learn. Had never worked retail in my life. But its a good feeling when its the first Super Center builded in your home town. And My Sam Walton flys to San Angelo Texas to shake your hand and say good job for being in the top of sales in your district. Top ten. Only 5 associates made it in our monthly magazine from our stores and I was one of those 5 given 1 share of stock from Mr Sam Walton to each of us to show his appreciation for the hard work and dedication to the company.
One thing I've been thinking about lately...
Most of us only think seriously about our careers when something forces us to.
A layoff.
A bad manager.
Burnout.
A recruiter reaching out.
A missed promotion.
Then we update the resume, start applying, and try to figure everything out under pressure.
What if we thought about our careers the same way we think about our finances or our health?
Not only when something goes wrong.
But continuously.
I've become convinced that the biggest career advantage isn't having the best resume.
It's consistently making better career decisions before the next crisis ever happens.
I'm curious...
What's one career decision you wish you had handled differently—and what did it teach you?

Too many decisions
Afternoon everyone. So I have been putting in lots of applications for remote work and I am starting to get interview requests or yes we want to hire you emails. A couple offers stick out in my mind, I am also being aware of scammy sounding ones. So I'm not certain which way to go, but I do want to go ahead and set up 4 or 5 interviews and see what happens. #interview The hardest part is going to be choosing one. We shall see.
All of these factors are important, but when you have limited experience, a strong reference and relevant skills can make the biggest difference. Ensure your resume highlights these skills and ask a mentor or previous employer for a reference. Utilize Jobcase, LinkedIn, and other job search providers to find opportunities where your skills shine. Good luck! #jobsearch #resume #careeradvice
