Consulting firms have faced increased employee turnover after layoffs and delayed start dates. For decades, business students and MBAs looked to consulting because the work was high in pay and prestige. AdvertisementThe lure of other industriesThe declining appeal of the consulting industry is most evident in the number of employees leaving. That's different from when he left in 2022, when there was a pandemic-fueled boom for consulting work. "When I was transitioning out of consulting, consulting was actually still all the rage.

If Cowie did her job search over, she'd cast a more narrow net from the start. If she had to redo her job search, Cowie would have done a few things differently. During her job search, she applied to several account manager, customer success manager, and project manager roles. "Towards the end of my job search, when I didn't have anything, I was like, 'Oh my God, did I make a huge mistake? Cowie said she wouldn't have changed how she networked during her job search, relying on both her friend circle and LinkedIn.

They seem to be slowing down, and that's creating fewer job openings," he said. While that sluggish pace of hiring is making the fall feel less robust than in some years, Mullinix said there are steps job seekers can take to stand out. That's causing some to list fewer job openings. That can make it harder for job seekers, of course, and for recruiters who have to sift through a pile of applications. Mullinix said that given how unpleasant the search process can be, it's understandable that job seekers would gravitate toward the easiest method for applying.

Someone like Routh was quite easy to meet in Ukraine in the opening months of Russia’s full-scale war in 2022. But already, Moscow’s prolific echo chambers have begun to fashion a narrative in which US support for Ukraine is somehow extremist. People stand near the sports complex of a university after Russian missile attacks in Kyiv, Ukraine, on September 2. The clamor of support for Ukraine to receive US permission to fire longer-range US-supplied missiles at targets deeper inside Russian territory had been growing. The sudden insertion of a wayward extremist like Routh is a loud, confusing wild card, at a time when support for Ukraine urgently needed a calm and balanced voice.

We expected there to be a cooling labor market — that's kind of the goal — and it's always just, you know, how cool?" That being said, when it comes to the labor market … it is, in fact, so over.

In 1970 there had been only 18,333 students enrolled at degree-granting for-profit schools, less than a quarter of a percent of the total number of college students. In 2010, Tom Harkin, chair of the Senate's education committee, began a two-year investigation into for-profit schools. But even more shocking, federal money flowing to for-profit schools accounted for 25% of all federal student aid and 47% of eventual loan defaults. Students' money enriched every corner of the for-profit industry except one: quality of instruction. In fact, these for-profit students were actually worse off than if they hadn't gone to school at all.

AdvertisementMany job seekers believe that including extra detail will help show off their qualifications to employers. But, Mann said, employers have specifics they're seeking on a résumé — often what's outlined in the job description. AdvertisementShe recommends job seekers use distinct sections to help make their résumé easy to read. For people applying for roles with quantifiable results — like sales or marketing — it can be wise to then include a section on career accomplishments. "It's the average of all the resources that are out there, so it creates these incredibly generic résumés," Mann said.

Republican presidential nominee and former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks during a Fox News town hall hosted by Sean Hannity in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, U.S. September 4, 2024. The federal criminal election interference case against Donald Trump resumed in Washington, D.C., on Thursday after a nearly yearlong delay related to arguments on whether he can be prosecuted for conduct committed while he was president. Judge Tanya Chutkan heard arguments Thursday morning over how to schedule legal briefs to be filed in advance of a possible trial in the case. "Probably an exercise in futility to set a trial date now," Chutkan said in U.S. District Court at the end of the hearing. Trump, the Republican nominee, is set to face Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris in November's presidential election.

CNN —Months of feverish negotiations, in different cities and at multiple levels, have gotten Israel and Hamas closer to striking a ceasefire deal. “But we are committed to continue the war after the pause in order to achieve the goal of destroying Hamas. It essentially allows Israel – and Hamas – to abandon discussions after the six-week first phase and resume the war. Far-right members of his cabinet have blasted any ceasefire agreement while Israeli reports cite security officials who accuse Netanyahu of sabotaging the negotiations. Earlier this week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who was visiting Israel, said Netanyahu had agreed to the proposal while Hamas had not yet.

In my experience, flight attendants are only allowed to take time to eat when the food/drink service is done. It's a room only flight attendants know how to access. For example, flying from New York to Chicago is a two-hour flight, so the flight attendants only get paid for two hours. Passengers are sometimes concerned about the quality of the water because they don't know how often the water tanks are cleaned. Some passengers ask to look flight attendants in the eyes during takeoff.
