        Pros

        You get to have experience with kids

        Cons

        Management only cares about numbers and money regardless if a child is continuously injuring staff members. You can never get work off, I barely got work off for a funeral. Barely annual bonuses, maybe like 50 cents. Extremely underappreciated and you don't get support from staff. The amount of specific rules you have to follow and constantly preparing/doing lessons with no time given to plan and prepare is so not realistic. Management expects 6+ activities a day with a filled-out lesson plan but you are not given any time to prepare them because you are watching large groups of kids constantly.

      I have a supply chain & inventory manager interview coming up for a museum. Can anyone provide me some insight on what questions I should be prepared for? What key points to highlight during my interview? Any tips and advice is appreciated!

      I finished final round interview. Should I send a thank you letter to everyone or only to people where I have something interesting to add on. I interviewed with the hiring manager twice already and sent thank you emails. He never responds, should I even bother to send him one more since we talked again in the final round? HR said I wouldn’t hear back until late next week earliest. It sounds like they still have to wrap up final rounds with other people. I don’t want them to forget me.

      I interviewed for a position virtually and in person both interviews went well. I sent my Thank you email and never heard back from the department. They were interested in me and asked me to reach back out to them, it’s surprising they never responded to me.
