                Business Outlook

                Pros

                I worked in the field and for corporate, which is nice. If you want to move around, they make that possible. The trips were great. It’s a lot of fun, inspiring people if you’re on the right team.

                Cons

                The field is dying. Leadership from a corporate level down to the field keeps making terrible decisions. Ultimately, their business model for the field force will not be sustainable and the agents through RSC levels will all fade out.

                  The benefits are good and affordable as well.

                  Cons

                  Sales Leadership positions are at the mercy of the market director and where and how he/she/they want to achieve quota; which directly affects the support to your role and thus your compensation. There is no way to counter this, no matter how you communicate the misdeeds or to whom the challenges/issues are reported.

                      Graduate Student

                      Hi! Looking for some advice regarding hiring processes. I completed 2 interviews with the company and they emailed to say they "want to put me forward for the job" and asked for references, passport, and for me to do a background check. I didn't hear anything for a week, so then emailed to check on my application status. They responded saying they would get back at the end of that week. Its been 2 weeks since. I emailed last week to ask for an update and have not received a response. Thoughts?

                      Got booted from my former position about 4 years ago, which I LOVED. I have the impression I was "kept" in sympathy. Now that I have my feet beneath me, I feel like I'm running in place. Over the past 2 years, I've probably applied for about 100 positions in other departments. True, a few were unlikely moonshots, but for the most part I didn't misrepresent myself. Am I the world's worst interviewer? Otherwise.. shouldn't I have been accepted elsewhere, by choice?

                      Administrative Assistant

                      I haven't worked since Jan. 2020 when my job as administrative assistant for the Hospitalist group was eliminated. I can't begin to count the number of applications submitted, interviews I've had, jobs that I was told were mine then they weren't, etc. Several jobs have fallen through or not panned out. I am not a job hopper and want to stay where I go. I have a zoom interview tomorrow for a front desk receptionist position at an oral surgeon's office. Any interview tips are appreciated.
