Mostly easy apply so they aren't directly on my "career path" so I'll probably get three phone screens out of it.

you aren't wrong, lol. keep it up, though, I need motivation to commit to something. I ended up in this career because these jobs were handed to me by recruiters and now I'm hitting a wall.

I've contemplated how feasible it would be to work multiple full time jobs remotely

It's a low level operations job for a huge company. I've gotten it to the point where it's pretty easy but I always have to be "on" and the corporate politics are brutal. I would rather work on my own projects but that health insurance hits different.

I actually had a manager from a past job join somewhere else in the company. I asked him because he's given me a recommendation before but he's a contractor and they're letting his team go.

another manager who moved elsewhere in the company would give me a rec if needed. I still meet up to smoke and play games with him.

Keep up with the guy whose team was just let go. If he gets a great gig that could also be your ticket in.

Good luck!

It's a good sign that all I have to do now is lie back and let the poor jobs roll on in B)

I've been here 25 months, 11 as a contractor before getting hired full time.

They don't consider my time as a contractor toward my tenure, but maybe someone else will.

I'm talking with a VP of sales tomorrow for a video call. I've already met the CRO but have no idea what he thought.

This is it yall. I've been talking with this company for weeks and I'll have done 3 hours of interviews so I'm being seriously considered. It is not part of the round of applications I just did but the only one I'm even in talks with right now.

I don't even want this job that much, I just want a bit more freedom and to be able to leave my current job.

He turned a 30 minute interview into 18 minutes and ended abruptly.

We'll see, folks.

Hey, I work on the finance side of S&OP. Not my cup of tea and need to get out of this.

it truly is the devil's idea of a corporate department. in my experience you do all the work and nobody respects you.

My company has two seperate forecasts that are done each and every month with one of the forecasts getting 1-2 rounds of revisions per month. Way too much focus on getting the numbers right instead of analyzing the numbers to fix the problems.

the sparring over unimportant metrics depresses the hell out of me.
