How can you feel like a good person while incorporating AI into your business?
I know AI is a growing tool and can be very useful in the business setting. But the environmental impact is very real and very scary. We may not think that a simple entry on Claude will affect our own water usage, but in the near future that could very well be the case. #Spring26

I have a whole different of kind of experience which doesn't even related to what I want to do.

I'm interesting in starting off with any accounting/finance entry level and work my way up or in HR roles. For example, accounting clerk, payroll, HR assistant, Accounting staff etc. However, a lot of these companies requirement are at least 3-5 years plus in when it comes to experience.

What to do now that I got fired?
At September I should’ve started working on a LLC as a collaborator for a EU company remotely. It was all great, until today when they said that I got weird and I was not decided enough to work with them. They basically fired me even before starting to work. Now they wanted me to pay upfront the costs of opening the LLC(partita iva is called in Italy) and the flight/hotel for the onboarding. They didn’t say that in the beginning and I don’t have that liquidity upfront(and I honestly don’t trust them to refund me, even tho they said that they would) I stayed almost a month without sending resumes and even cancelling interviews because I was set on already having a job and income. Now my dream is to move to the US to be a actor and with a remote job I could’ve done that perfectly, but unfortunately those guys now fired me. I honestly don’t know what the hell I should even do with my life. They made me waste a month of job search because they changed their mind about me. The CEO said that it was better for the both of us to part ways and after asking he said that he will send me some contacts from other places in order to get me started again. I am in pieces right now and I feel like my dream is about to get crushed after being so close to getting it.

How do staffing/recruiting agencies work?
Hello guys. I am a 18 years old European and once I finish high school (in less than a month) I want to get a remote job(possibly with a US company) with a good salary so that I’d be able to move to California and study. I want to be a BDR/SDR for a Tech company, I am doing two internships right now with US customers to put it on my resume. But those are startups and won’t hire me for a salary based position so I am not interested. I really need to get a job with it since I really wanna move abroad. I also have two Blogs that have traffic that talks about CRM and the other one liquors. Also I am doing another internship as a content manager for another startup. For me it be fine to work as a BDR or as a digital marketer. For me honestly it’s the same and since they’d be remote I’d be down to do both of them and have two jobs if that was what it took. Do you think staffing agencies/recruiting agencies could work? Do agenzie that take your profile and go out searching for you to get jobs and take a cut from the employer exsist? If so, do they work? I really need to find a job like this and the faster the better.

What to do if your employer will give you a bad reference?
Hello, I have been doing a BDR internship for a Indian startup for a month and I didn’t book anything, now I am trying a new approach. The founder tho, sees me as dishonest and unreliable because we had some misunderstanding. I fear he will be a bad reference for when I’ll finish high school and I’ll try to get a SDR/BDR job for a US company(I am from Italy). I fear he might say that I am not a good employee and he will jeopardise my chances of getting a job. Now he hasn’t fired me from the internship yet, but he wants me to book something for the end of the week. I fear he might just be firing me out of the internship. He is very micromanaging and pretty pretentious (even if it’s a unpaid internship). Should I put this on my resume? It’s the only sales experience I have so I don’t know what to do. Please I really need to get a BDR job after high school. Plus if in a few months from now I won’t sell anything, should I put it on my resume anyways? I am finishing school so I don’t have time for actually stick to it. Plus I am doing another internship and managing 2 websites. Can I still make it a valuable experience on my resume even if I dint sell anything?
