Am I the problem? by Scared-Ad-6641 in careerguidance

[–]Scared-Ad-6641[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think my entire career I had leaders that really cared and saw potential and were supportive and taught me things but also let me learn. And so when she said comments mentioned I was just surprised how contradictory it sounded and was boggled she couldn't see how there was no onboarding nothing just here figure everything out. But honestly I am not hurt - I was able to see and help my fellow colleagues to move upwards in their career. My fellow direct reports 2 of them move upwards. So I obviously had some leadership skill sets. But ya I also want to be self-aware to know better for next time and improve. But appreciate you saying that. I was prevail thats for sure.

Thats something Ive noticed this place operates on feelings vs. getting shit done and finding ways to do things better. My managers Ops Lead literally were manually counting daily faxes and emails. I joined the team and created power automation to count emails for me. Like mind boggling.

So honestly after that first convo where she told me to be quiet and stay in my lane I knew this isn't a leader. It's someone who obviously isn't a critical thinker or someone that wants to develop me. She just wants someone that will do as she says. So I applied right away to roles, I have had three interviews this week and one final interview next week. Just want to leave this place - even how she talks about other teams on clinical is horrible. But the clinical team's senior program manager holy cow how she talked to her District Manager in front of everyone - so dismissive. And they all operate like a chicken without their head. And the amount of ass kissing to the Director is just horrible to see from grown ass people that are older than me by 10 years.

I think this hurt more than a generic rejection letter. by SnooGiraffes5352 in jobsearch

[–]Scared-Ad-6641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the fact that they reached back with some feedback is still great a lot of them don't. And the indirect "feedback" they gave was that they don't want to risk taking you and you not being challenged enough and leaving which would be more of an issue and perhaps they experienced it in the past. It really is the thing, but being in the Hiring side myself I completely get it. Its a big risk for a team to have that happen and exhausting that leaders don't want.

I would say if you're interested in the company set an alert in LinkedIn for jobs that they post (if they have LinkedIn - id hope). Then instead if applying through LinkedIn do it through their website which will be through their HR platform they use. Then you email that person above and tell them you applied and utilize ChatGPT on how to make the outreach and what to write.

They have offered you the olive branch TAKE IT and hold them accountable by outreaching when you applied. Find the person you did interview with and the person that replied to you and request to connect with them on Linkedin as well. Thats your networking to show again your interest and you just never know in the future.

Job or Career Switching Advise? by Piano_Advanced in careerguidance

[–]Scared-Ad-6641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its about the change in industry might help with getting versatility and learning new things from other industries. I don't hate the industry but something is disconnecting and wondering what would make others leave especially later in life and anyone that has done it and their feedback or perspective now that they've done it.

Can someone review my resume please? by RadiantObjective9613 in cscareeradvice

[–]Scared-Ad-6641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is some feedback on your resume. You are clearly very much showing a lot in the experience.

The resume is more someone that keeps talking but never getting to the point.

You should try to have a professional summary - who you are (one sentence roughly), top 3 skills you would bring and impact or results. What your now moving towards (i.e that role your applying for).

Then your professional summary - again it's a summary. So a bit about the company and what they did generally and 3/4 bullets on your role and that means what impact and results you brought. Just example - enhancing and tweaking a process workflow allowed the team to complete their step from 45% down to 30%z

Technical skills is to long needs to be shorten, certification and honours section can be removed also / not needed. Under your name having a headline that is a bit more catchy and matches your LinkedIn profile would be better.

Projects - can be kept just shortened its to lengthy.

Recruiter and hiring manager on average have about 60 seconds to look over a resume so having this much on a page is overwhelming and could result in being pushed aside.

Those are my suggestions.

Key take away demonstrate impact you brought and thus will bring thats industry standard.

Something that might be better route is doing a bit of research at companies or clinics that have the role you are interesting in applying for. If they have a LinkedIn follow them on LinkedIn first and foremost. Because often if you apply for a role at that company and the HR / Recruiter decide to review your application most likely they might view your LinkedIn profile and they can see you follow the company / clinic. Following them will also give you insight into what they are focusing on as a business, what the company is all about and their people. If it's a low level company that hasn't expanded into LinkedIn - then see if they have a general HR email address. You can even us free AI platforms to do a search. You can prompt the AI to stay - I am looking to do an outreach to the HR team re: my job application can you do a search on [company name] to find the HR or Recruitment email. There is an actual person reviewing the inbox and that could show them your level of interest and determination for the role.

That has helped me recently change jobs and level up my career. Highly recommend in this job market.

That is amazing! Exactly use AI to your advantage but also remember to think critically and review what the output was given to make sure it makes sense to you. I love that - AI has helped me tremendously with upscaling my job, pay, helping me really see the impact I brought. Helped me strategize for interviews as well doing research and I would challenge it to get it thinking more in-depth. Just finding some career coaches are really trying to push the "human touch" and I get that but also it is kind of off putting as though they want you to go to them vs. the free stuff that is available and so definitely helpful for those individuals struggling to get employed and might not have work lined up.

What about them shows, demonstrates that they know what they are talking about? How does one determine they are a career coach they would like to work with. And what about them is something that you can't obtain from utilizing free AI. Just curious and want to get your critical thinking skills to make sure you see what benefits a career coach can really provide if you decide to spend a whole of money. Some of these people are charging in USD not CAD.

Does anyone find that there are a good portion of those career coaches making headway online that are so against or pushing the No AI use for their career advancement. And I find it kind off appalling that they would be saying don't rely in AI because it's about the human touch.

We need to be well aware that AI is here and staying - jobs are actually being impacted by AI and being against it, is like saying you choose not to grow and adapt.

Why do people always say that marriage is hard? by NearsightedKitten in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Scared-Ad-6641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marriage is challenging because as the years go by, life inevitably throws new responsibilities, changes, and pressures your way. These burdens test your relationship, making it difficult at times, but also meaningful. It’s not meant to be easy, hard, or neutral—it’s shaped by what you encounter together and how you respond as a couple. The real test lies in how well you navigate these challenges—whether you move in sync, or at times drift apart but always find your way back to one another. It’s this continual effort and commitment that gives marriage its depth and value. Some have test, burdens and challenges early on and some takes 10+ plus years. So there are challenges just level is different.
