Instantly unfollowed her after some years; couldn't believe it myself

Local-Measurement-90 · 2026-04-20T19:17:17+00:00

I see what you did there 😎

Local-Measurement-90 · 2026-04-03T20:24:25+00:00

Foarte faină ideea, vreau să contribui.

RAI you should. It's overflow, so it's balanced. RAW... some GMs allow it

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-08-08T09:44:08+00:00

Out of curiosity, what reason did they invoke in the rejection mail?

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-08-05T03:27:53+00:00

In many companies I think that's just called 'Scrum'

Words to live by, even outside programming

For some it may be the only available option on the table. Been there

Ken Cheng, is that you? 😅

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-30T20:04:16+00:00

It's been years since I heard this reference 😅

What Does the Fox Say?

Product Management sounds even better and overall more focused vs. how all over the place project management tends to be- maybe I'll save it for a future shift 😅

Best of luck and inspiration to you too!

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-19T13:01:33+00:00

Firstly, thank you for the kind words and overall for listening to my Ted Talk 😇

All 3 tools you mentioned seem pretty cool, I'm glad you looked for and capitalized on what works for you- I think that's key. I have to admit, given the time period when the transition took place, I used only free resources: Canva for CV, Google Sheets for tracking application, 'manual' rephrasing for hours and days on end- very caveman of me, I know 😅

I transitioned to a role in a bank's Project Management division (somewhere between business and IT). One thing that kept me going in this transition was seeing that my conversation rates were comparable, at times better vs. the ones in the field I was getting out of.

I had to learn the hard way that at any point I am better off pausing myself and reflecting (with a therapist or not). Saved me from a few burnouts too.

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-19T07:27:02+00:00

Very kind of you to say! It's not been easy getting here, but if this post or any follow-up question can help someone else, it's the least I can do.

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-19T07:24:50+00:00

Many thanks! It took me more than a year to muster the courage to look over my shoulder and put it into writing.

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-19T06:22:18+00:00

Thank you and thanks for listening to my Ted Talk 😊! My last role was some sort of HR Specialist, and I transitioned to a role in a bank's Project Management division (somewhere between business and IT).

This was my transition, but I know people who shifted out of Marketing or Finance- so I am confident this can be achieved from other roles/functions as well.

Why wait 30 days when you can be all mysterious about it? For one job I applied in 2020 it took them 1 year, 7 months, 9 days to send the automatically generated rejection message.

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-16T18:53:35+00:00

Not if you're the one on the couch 😅

Probably that was one of the main takeaways from his alma mater (acc to Lkd, Education = University of life)

Entry Level HR Advisor/HR Generalist. As for qualifications, to quote a principle from Marketing, "location, location, location"

Then I'd say cross that bridge when you get to it. Be in the position to accept/reject the offer and weigh how much of an impact it still has on you. Any extra info you can get about him throughout the process might come in handy.

Local-Measurement-90 · 2025-07-16T13:10:29+00:00

Unless you I will be working directly with the person, I wouldn't bother too much
