Robert has been in the same job for 3 years. He asked his boss for a different role, but he was told he was “too valuable” in his current role to move him. A new job just got created in a different department. Robert went to the manager to express interest in the role. The manager said, “I’d love to have you Robert, but I know for a fact your boss won’t let you go.” What should Robert do?

During the summer your career is probably the last thing on your mind.
We totally get it, you would much rather be sitting on the beach working on your tan (that’s what we want to do too). However, it’s important to continue to network during the summer, you never know when a big opportunity is going to present itself.
We’ve come up with some tips to help you continue your job search while also enjoying the summer!
If you or someone you know is deciding to take a lower level position in their career, some challenges may arise during this process. If you are overqualified, it might be harder to land the job you want, employers will think you are too good to be true. Here are some tips to help you make this transition.
🤔 4 things to know before taking a lower level position.
❌ Avoid appearing overqualified on your resume.
🤷 Why you aren’t getting job offers.
Your desk will never be dirty again (well that might be a lie), but these cleaning gadgets will sure make cleaning a lot more fun. Who doesn't love a mini vacuum cleaner. Or you can bring out your inner child with some dust grabbing slime.
Why You Should Admit You Were Fired! Watch this!
In a job interview, there are some questions you should definitely ask and some you definitely should NOT ask!
Some questions can make you look desperate, making the employer think you want the job for the wrong reasons. This is not how you want to come off to the employer, especially if you want the job for all the RIGHT reasons.
