What are some entry-level jobs that could lead to becoming a project manager?
I am a high school senior with a special interest in business. I hope to one day become a project manager at a company, but as I am looking at colleges and majors, I am wondering what steps lie in between graduating college and reaching a project manager position. I was wondering what some common starting positions are that could help me reach my goal of becoming a project manager, and possibly some insight about certain steps I need to take along the way. #business #management #career-path #project-management #entry-level #logistics-management
When can I "hang up the towel" at a well-paying job and pursue my real passion?
Context: I am a senior in college tracking towards a full-time offer from a well-established investment firm after graduation. While I am excited, grateful, and feel relatively prepared (business major for the past four years and have interned in finance) lately I've been feeling the pressure on if I should instead follow my "true" passion since childhood: writing. Assuming I don't need to become a novelist, but would be fulfilled with simply a more creative occupation like a marketing assistant, creative coordinator, etc - my question is this: At what practical, financially stable point can I "throw in the towel" with my finance job in order to pursue a career I am much more passionate about but will pay much less? Is this advisable in the first place? Thanks for any advice! #business #career #finance #creative #art #marketing #entry-level

Can anyone recommend a remote entry level job that does not have calling?
I live in a very loud house, I would prefer not to be calling customers, I think I could do conference calls with my coworkers but not customers. I have been looking and everything I find seems like a scam… linking to sketchy sites which want me to pay money to get a “certificate” or just straight up tries to get me to sign up for another job searching site that doesn’t have the job I was looking for in the first place. Or it’s just a survey site! I have been looking for clerical or data entry. I enjoy organization and feel like those type of jobs would suit me better than sales. I am looking for something where I can start with no experience as well. I am 18 with a year of experience working in person. I don’t plan on going back to school to get a degree. I have a high school diploma. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you
When employers list a specific GPA requirement, is it final?
I ask this because I am a electrical engineering major and I don't have a 3.0 GPA, which seems to be the threshold for most companies looking to hire college students. I would like to apply for most companies but I do not meet this requirement. I want to note that I usually don't meet this requirement and about two or three more, an my GPA is not even close to a 3.0. Does this requirement automatically disqualify me from the position or should I apply regardless of my GPA? Thank you. #computer-science #internships #tech #entry-level #java
