What is the derterming factor for you to reject a job offer?
Recently, I rejected a job offer because the company's values and brand did not align with my values and lacked opportunities to excel in my career. Professional growth was not highlighted or emphasized and the company reviews were mediocre. BUT...the income was great!
Was this bad decision? I don't feel so...what are your opinions? Suggestions?
You are in control of your own personal growth not a job. When comes to values. Does every person in your like share your values currently? If getting a job and paying bills is the objective, take the job. If your job duties is not directly relate to the values you oppose, than you are good. Think about all the companies that you do business with daily. Do they share your same values? Are you going to stop eating? We don't like our leaders but we are moving to another country. Pray on it.
Thank you for your wonderful advice
#WorkerShortage???? Don't believe the media pretending there are tons of jobs...it's a facade.
Applying for 50+ jobs without as much as a email response? I have an associate's degree in business administration and a bachelor's s degree too, and have had retail marketing job for 10 years lost during the height of COVID. Why are the media outlets pushing this false narrative that there's so many jobs you can start working tomorrow or even today? It's simply not true I've been trying for a long time now, and It's horrible being told over and over when the reality is no one is hiring and the applications ask way too much out of people we should be asking more out of employers not the other way around. #wordsofadvice
I have a big gap in between jobs, whats the best soluution?
Baltimore
The reason for the big gap in my resume is that I worked at MBNA and they were bought out. They didn’t keep on most employees who had been 15 years plus. Also, my mother took to a serious illness and needed my my family needed my assistance. Unfortunately she last 6 mos and passed away. Then my daughter had her first child and I started babysitting. Be quite honest I still babysit for my 3 grandchildren. I hope this clears up the reason for the gap.
Are you happy with your present job or have you secretly been looking for a way out? #advice #jobsearch #wordsofadvice #application #workfromhome
I have a question about salary/wages and tenure. I noticed that quite a few employers are now starting their new employees out at over $20/hr. Is that fair to the other employees who have been there longer and are now making the same pay as a new hire? How is this correctable if at all? I couldn't find the right place to post this and haven't seen a similar post. Polite feedback welcome. #officelife #wage #salary #tenure
Looking for porter cook or caretaker work
I can care for disabled elderly or minor maintenance or porter like at McDonald's or in home home healthcare janitorial or light maintenance 50 lbs restriction on lifting so don't like directly dealing with public like cashier work but customer service know from a atockman or janitor sense. #interview #workfromhome #application #hiring #motivation #mythoughts #canyourelate #california
Is it weird that I have no job experiences and I’m a 24 year old college student?
Update: I just recently updated my resume and I’m going to get in contact with my college career services again to see where I can be a best fit. Thank you everyone!
And minor is community arts teaching so I’m hopeful. Thank you everyone.
Have you looked into paid internships for your field of study?...some may also hire you on after you complete your degree and may even pay for additional certifications or continued education like a masters.

So where do you se yourself in 5 years, within the company?
Someone others can look up too and learn from.
Now days employers want the most for the least amount of expense. Per say I have 9 years inventory exp., purchasing etc etc, I know how to work with different inventory control systems, operate machinery, work in medical, retail or food. I know I'm worth 25.00-29.00 an hour, but employers only want to offer minimum wage and want all the experience but I'm passed along when they see what I want. Employers are not out there to benefit you. They're here to offer you what they want if you don't take it someone else will take it for even less. Just like position titles are changing and getting fancy but yet the pay is nowhere near the title. Give the employer what they want pass your probationary period and stick with it til you find something better or slow down, they can't fire you as long as you don't impede money being made.
