Thank you to everyone who has reached out to me. I wanted to share some additional advice for my fellow connections who are still searching for a job. Many of the skills and tasks we've developed can be applied across different industries. Sales is sales, no matter where you are. If you're still on the hunt, consider checking out stores in your area. While retail may not always seem ideal due to varying hours, it can be a great way to get out of the house, away from constantly filling out online applications, and engage with people. For example, local construction supply stores often hire seasonal staff, and even part-time work can be beneficial. Getting a paycheck versus receiving unemployment benefits can make a big difference. If you enjoy gardening, think about applying to the floral department. If customer service is your strength, explore opportunities at the front of the store. Take a chance—you might be pleasantly surprised by the opportunities you find! #openforwork #2024jobsearch #jobs #sales #2024holidays #paycheck #unemployment

What's it like to be part of the team running t-shirt campaigns for the RSPB one day and Beast Philanthropy the next? 🤔 We sat down with our Account Director, Robbie, to get his perspective. 🗓️ What does a typical day in your role look like? A nice blend of working closely with key clients on their marketing strategies and empowering my team to perform in their roles. 🎯 What's your favourite part of the role? Well, it's the whole thing. Working closely with awesome organisations to help them achieve their goals, as well as developing the internal strategy and tools that the team need to keep growing, all while cleaning up the fashion industry at the same time. 💚 What's been your favourite campaign to work on? The Shark Trust store will always be up there for me just because of how important I think their work is, plus they punch above their weight in terms of store performance vs their size, which is very rewarding. Working with Greenpeace UK on their 'Don't stop thinking about tomorrow' campaign last summer was pretty cool too. 🧑🏽💻 What makes Teemill a great place to work? I like the whole 'small company, get it done approach'. There's no bureaucracy or internal politics. If you have an idea, you can own it and go try it. Because of our mission, the people we bring in are all down to earth and share a similar outlook. It makes working across teams super straightforward! 👉 Good news, you can get in on the action. Robbie is looking for new team members to help us have an even bigger impact. Explore our vacancies and apply today: https://lnkd.in/gjVxhtHs

I once worked as an office manager/marketing assistant. At least I thought that was the case, and you won’t see this job on my resume because it happened to be one of the worst jobs I’ve ever had. Turns out what they wanted was an errand girl, a person to pick up snacks from the local dollar general. A person to count their ornament inventory, check for defects, input such inventory, organize, and ship orders. We’d receive shipments of over 5,000+ at a time. These orders would go to prestigious schools, museums, hospitals, and I’m pretty sure none of these places knew how they treated their employees. I was in the middle of trying to be pregnant with our first child, and there was a gal I worked with who went her whole pregnancy with this org. She complained a lot about her treatment but came back because she had no other options. Plus the business was ran extremely like a family. The marketing part was taking model pictures of the ornaments and posting them to their storefront. The office assistant part was picking up snacks. Don’t get me wrong two of the employees I worked with were nice people. They made it manageable for the 6ish months I was there. But my destiny was not shipping and packing ornaments. So I left. I leave this out of my resume because it’s not relevant. The same way where someone went to college is not relevant in your cold outreach. Speak to your prospects problems. They know where they graduated from. They know they like sushi or steak. What they don’t know is if you can help them. So tell them how you can help them. P. S. And if you’re posting a job to be an office manager/marketing assistant. Don’t lie in the job description. Stop it. Just be honest. You needed an inventory manager that could lift 300lbs and count in boxes all day. 🙃🫠 Posting the real stories, follow me for the 🫖🍵
