              Good income, lots of good people

              Cons

              Worst upper management I have ever worked with. Changes every 5 minutes and additions to your job requirements with no adjustment for performance standard or pay (they don't give raises). School is currently on probation with their accrediting body, and has no trust or respect in the community.

                Remote and great pay! Those two are the only pros. There is nothing good about working here.

                Cons

                Unrealistic goals needing to be met, micro management to the fullest, high tuition, schools accreditation on probation, guaranteeing language used to recruit students.

                  I have a 5 year gap in my work history due to an illness. How do I explain this? I can't lie, SSD is on my background check as a previous employer. I am on it and looking to re-enter the job market and get off of it, but I understand it is a reason for employers to pause in hiring me.

                  Senior Associate

                  How do you interview for a position when you are under-qualified based on seniority but not based on skills? I currently serve as a senior associate for a reputable consulting firm, and I have an interview for an associate director position. However, I am just shy of the minimum YOE requirement included on the job application and relatively young (though I meet all of the other requirements). Any advice on convincing the hiring manager I am ready for a mid-level role?

                  EY

                  Had 4 behavioral interviews for a position last week. Last Friday (which was the last of the four interviews), the interviewer spent most of the interview selling me on the job and didn't ask me any questions. She ended the interview by saying she thinks I am confident and would be a great fit for the role. I took this as a good sign but giving it's 2023 you never truly know. Has anyone ever had an interviewer do something similar and not gotten the job?
