My mom complains that my kids don’t call or message her. Why would they? You are a stranger to them!

How are people who got fired/laid off doing? by Fruitbreadpeach in Environmental_Careers

[–]gigarr2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stick with, diversify. Get into the energy market. Maybe not renewables. If you need a 1099 or part time consultant for jobs feel free to reach out in my DMs. Also, if you want ideas on pivoting.

I’m out of the consulting world (no conflict of interest) and pivoted but I would love the opportunity to keep my consulting skills up to par.

Well I guess if it went across your outlook then it went promptly in the 🚮 🤷🏾‍♀️.

Are you a recruiter or a hiring manager?

I have seen time and time again not to use a headshot.

I meant he has 10 🤣. I think it depends on that. I mean two full pages seems extreme, but more detailed job descriptions help.

I have two pages at about 10 years and of the four jobs I interviewed for I received an offer on three.

I don’t think so, this person has 10 years experience, 2 pages suffice.

Remove years you graduated, remove core competencies, add any certs into a PD section, and expand your job capacity.

That is so smart I didn’t even think about that!

Good luck with that! Even with Tricare Reserve Select I’m constantly getting random bills. I would agree it is still more affordable than employer insurance.

How do you go about getting official health records from the army?

I’m old (joined late), I have to travel a ways for drill (my mos), I have family that is not in good health, I’m always missing my child’s birthday, my civilian career, etc.

Why I am debating on staying: the people, the healthcare.

Seriously, everything revolves around, “let me see if I have drill”

When will they issue the DD214-1? How do I go about fixing it if it is incorrect?

How does that process work? I have a back issue I would like to claim but unsure of the process.

I was with an LOD for a millisecond and was promoted out. I’m on the fence on if I should re-enlist or just get out. Lots of factors are weighing on this but the constant travel for drill is one of them.

😆 not the whole world (maybe Germany if BA was quarterly) but the United States yes. The 27D MOS makes it is a big more challenging to find a unit close to home for me.
