            Pros

            Staff discount was great and worked with some nice girls

            Cons

            Supervisors, managers, floor managers wouldn't have a problem making it clear they didn't like you etc, manager kept rostering me in for one day a week I was unavailable due to college and would give out to me every week that I hadn't 'informed her'. Supervisors have a power complex and favour/don't correct their sales assistant pals.

                      I’m new to this data analyst part of tech. I’m trying to break in but it’s been difficult. Can anyone help me with what to expect for interview questions for my position?

                      Is there an ‘active job seeker’ icon for recruiters on LinkedIn the way there is an ‘actively recruiting’ icon for job seekers?

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!
