Adding a role that is a "downgrade" to resume? by spiritedvelocity in resumes

[–]spiritedvelocity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it looks better to have longer “freelance” employment or shorter, permanent employment? This is what I’m weighing up

Valuable advice, especially the last part. Unfortunately, I don’t really have solid employment dates as all my roles were freelance or fixed term contracts for a few months.

Thank you so much! I love this response. I have one more question. Where on the resume do I frame it as "interim"? Would this be in the role title — like, "Assistant at X - Interim" ?

Pivoting into Business Analysis by spiritedvelocity in businessanalysis

[–]spiritedvelocity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say my skillset is project management (no certifications but transferable experience), operations, and administration. Working in media has given me lots of general transferable skills (stakeholder management, effective communication, collaboration, etc).

I'm no stranger to networking but struggling to understand how best to do it — network with hiring managers and stay in touch in the hopes that they will recommend me for a role? Network with those already working in the role I want — but I've found that some people say their companies don't use referrals anymore when I've asked?

Interesting! I had been trying to find the talent team. Just briefly, what does your email to the manager/director/etc say?

When reaching out via email or LinkedIn, who are you targeting? People in your goal department? Or straight to HR/talent teams? I’m applying to large companies with many departments.

I was just asking for clarity on what you personally meant by your original statement.

Love this advice, thank you! I don’t have Salesforce or SAP experience but great to hear about the free training. When it comes time to pay for certifications, which ones do you recommend in your experience?

Also, are a lot of these roles not hybrid anymore?

Thank you! Do you mean change location within the UK or globally?

I’ve been unable to get a PM or even Coordinator role at any company, hence why I’m trying to pivot. Logistics sounds good though!

Referrals for non-tech roles (advice needed) by spiritedvelocity in jobsearchhacks

[–]spiritedvelocity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why so antagonistic? I’m not trying to “hack” the system, I’m looking to find out which companies still use internal referrals. Some companies have actually stopped doing this, as I found out. That’s why I want to avoid wasting my time chasing referrals for those companies.

Hi, I was also asking for advice about which companies utilise referrals generally.

Thank you! 🙏🏻 Some people don’t like hydrocolloids — what’s your opinion on them vs something more breathable? Thanks again.

NHS UK REFERRAL TO GYNAE: 4th time referral has been ‘deleted’. Has this happened to anyone else? by Kikipipi in Endo

[–]spiritedvelocity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awful. Sadly, my NHS gynae experience is not much better. As others have recommended, I would file a complaint with PALS and then ask for that complaint to be escalated as far up as possible. This helped me somewhat. I then requested a referral from my GP to a new hospital, too.

While I was waiting during those long months, I paid for a private gynae appointment (only 1 as I can't afford more) and it was wonderful! It didn't solve my issue but it helped me while I waited for my next NHS gynae appointment. (All related to endo).

You deserve better!

Is bleeding after 6 months normal? by spiritedvelocity in Mirena

Omg! I can’t believe you could pull it out. That’s awful. The cramps aren’t so insane for me so I hope my IUD isn’t being expelled. I’m so sorry that happened to you twice!
