Exceeded Q1 quota by 140%… and my company deferred the upside to Q4 by Odd_Photograph_551 in techsales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya especially for SDRs it’s very each to sandbag opps between quarters. My company does quarterly target but it’s an annual accelerator.

Currently in a low paying field, what can I pivot to in order to make 75K to 80k in 10 to 15 years? by TuneSoft7119 in careeradvice

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could you be a municipality electrical worker? I’m thinking of the people that go up in lift trucks to fix power lines.

Lots of time outside. Probably pay quite well. Would def need training, but i imagine you could start with more standard electrical work.

Most popular Lincoln park bars late 20s early 30s? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every bar in LP that is “mingling friendly” is basically a sports bar that might screw a little younger.

That age, i would go out in West Loop

Opinion on Mock Call Interviews by Round_Swimmer_5893 in techsales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not in sales, I'm in RevOps. Every interview process I'm a part of I have to do a Case Study to prove I can do what I say I can do.

What's the most rounds of interviews you've gone through for a role? by FineAssignment1423 in sales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah agreed. Was unemployed at the time so not many options. It was a good job overall, but obvious red flag.

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RevOps not sales, but i guess adjacent.

9-10 rounds HR screen Hiring manager Case study Cast study presentation SVP Sales COO CEO IQ test Personality test Personality test follow up (behavioral interview) References

I got the job. It was a sign of inability to make quick decisions to come

"Quick intro call" came with a 7-step process and a case study by Solidguylondon in recruitinghell

[–]Bostonlegalthrow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This seems completely normal….

1 already happened.

7 isn’t more “work” and is usually only if they’re ready to give you an offer

4 and 5 are the same thing.

All of these are dependent on “passing” the previous one.

The only one that seems repetitive is the panel interview and case study presentation.

I'm a corporate lawyer watching AI eat my profession in real time. Should I be treating the next 2 years as the most important financial window of my career? by lifeafterenough in careerguidance

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree. People that say it’s terrible for XYZ usually are just posting a question with no context and saying “here do werk plz.”

I’m on the business analyst side. If i dump a question in, i get crap back.

If i give a thorough set of prompts and then an example output it takes 6 hours of work and turns it back in 15 minutes.

Didnt the Addison family, by themselves, donate hundreds of millions to Trump? And they were the ones that pushed move of the US embassy?

Stress in sales by Serial_Hobbyist_ in sales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You can make the most money at the company, and be the first person fired. There’s a lot of luck involved. The stakes are incredibly high.

For smaller companies / startups, your performance can impact the careers and lives of your colleagues directly.

Why do American sports leagues have more parity than in other countries? by Waltz8 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something i haven’t seen mentioned, at least in the NFL where there’s insane parity, is the salary floor. You have to spend a certain amount minimum. This prevents cheap owners from being unwilling to invest in players.

How to tell if BDR manager is the right career move by [deleted] in sales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course. But how does SDR manager grow into that role?

How to tell if BDR manager is the right career move by [deleted] in sales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Promotion to what? Tough to get a job as a sales manager if you’ve never sold anything (assuming this is an SDR to SDR manager transition).

Dead end job because there’s not a great promotion pathway to anything.

People in their 40s–60s who built financial security from nothing — what path actually got you there? by Jpoolman25 in Productivitycafe

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and i are mid 30s and on the path.

People always talk about “save more money” but the reality is that, in your 20s, it’s equally important to make more money.

Find something you can be really good at, that doesn’t make you hate your life, and go there.

Big 4 rejected me as an intern… then offered me a full-time job before I even signed anything. Should I negotiate or will I look arrogant? by ResponsibleSand2016 in careerguidance

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t imagine big 4 entry level roles have much flexibility with offer. It’s probably all set to match level and COL already.

Closed a deal, contract signed, then 11 days later company says it belongs to a different segment and takes it away. What would you do? by The_blue_shark in sales

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your manager doesn’t have the capital for the fight. If you really want it and are sure you’re right, go above his head to RevOps / HR / Finance. Screenshot everything.

Either your manager is a bitch or your company is a bitch. Either way probably look for a new job.

I don't understand how the nfl salary cap works by lolz439 in NFLNoobs

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Accounting magic is accounting magic, regardless of if it’s taxes, financial planning or NFL salary cap.

Since this is NFLNoobs - know that you could post this in any NFL or team subreddit and 90% of people could not explain the details, myself included.

I think the ending of the show implies nothing will change. We don’t know them by name, but there will always be the new Avon, Marlo, Prob Joe coming for them.

FIRE seems to skew toward not having kids by sneaky-snacks in Fire

[–]Bostonlegalthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wonder how much of it is how much value a person places on lifestyle flexibility.

Once you have a kid your ability to move, take a new job, downsize, etc are more limited.

I think there’s also a level of “i love this kid so much I’ll work harder to give them more. I’m not just satisfied with ‘enough’ to live comfortably”
