        Pros

        As part of my role as a toddler's teacher , I may create lesson plans, crafts and activities for the children. Designing activities gives me the chance to use my creativity for educational purposes. Working with children in this way allows me to see growth and progress in amazing, measurable ways. While there may be setbacks, I will see the joy on each child's face as they learn new things from me. I can feel good about a career choice that makes a difference in the lives of children and their families. Working with kids is fun, no single day at work is the same. At our La Petite Ocoee Location. We all work together, great Management Teams. Plus Learning Care Group have great Benefits (Health insurance, Tuition reimbursement,Retirement plan,Vision insurance,Life insurance,401k matching...)

        Cons

        Across several states in Us. The average pay rate for a child care worker is low . Work in any Childcare Center may encounter challenging interpersonal situations with both parents and children. It may be our responsibility to converse with the parent and find a way to make both parent and child happy.

      Underwriter

      Applied for a PM role with a salary range of 90-120k. Ive already told the VP my expected salary as 93k to get my foot in the door, even though I lack a college degree, prior PM experience, or designations. My previous employer paid 50k, so this would be a big salary increase. As I move into the 3rd interview round, I'm wondering if it's to consider renegotiating for 103k, despite already mentioning my expected salary as 93k. I'm concerned about the possibility of losing the offer at this stage.

      College Practicum Marketing Fellow

      I have 5+ years of work experince and completed my Masters in Marketing. I have so many interviews, cleared the last rounds(10 companies), cracked a job interview received an offer, and decided to ghost me after that, at this point in time. I have no faith left. any tips? I have been applying since Oct 2022. Is the market going to value me or should I change my career and go into Business Analytics?

      Marketing Manager

      Team interview advice? I’m on my fourth round of interviews. It’s been a weird process where the assignment I felt they were very harsh on so I feel like I’m a shaky option. I got to the last round where I meet the team. 3 interviews on zoom. It’s a global team so I’m meeting my counterparts and 1 level higher in Europe. Any questions you rec asking or points I should convey? Worried about having the same convos again since it’s back to back
