I'd say strike while the iron is hot .
Missed out on a job but I bounced back well.
For the most part just compare it from stress levels ,if your shift at the other job holds their weight that's less pressure on you.
Of course you won't know unless you risk it.
Good luck

Thats what the trap money is for pleighboy. Anywho, i had drinks with the CEO of Northwestern Mutuals in my state last nignt and they really want me onboard. Just don't know if I should accept the logistics job that is base plus commission or NM who only pays commission but I could make bank.

Sure enough. I posted a while back about getting hired but it was for a Freight Forwarder at a logistic company which I took the job just for the money. My career goal has always been a HR manager, money alone wasn't really enough for me to keep going to work so i quit within 3 days. A week later I got hired at some automotive part seller company as a Data Entry clerk. I also quit that job in a week . Its ridiculous I know, but I am so glad I quit all those jobs and decided to pursue my career as opposed to just work for the money and I could not be happier. I have full health,dental,vision and 401k after 1 month and higher pay with this future company. Just be patient man... during the job search period I was depressed, lonely, and my self esteem was going down the drain.. just hang on there and you'll get yours too.

Got the other job offer from northwestern mutual as a financial representative. I also received a job offer from a logistics company in the sales department. Bad thing is I have until tomorrow to accept the logistics job offer and until wednnesday for the northwestern offer. Essentially i have until tomorrow to decide.

What are the pays for both job?
Realistically you should have a better career as financial rep tho.

Aw man i wouldn't feel comfortable taking commission job at all. Usually they're scams or they work you like dogs and dont give you any respect. I'll always choose a job that will have a base salary for me.

I would take the logistics job.
With financial advisory jobs, you're typically asked to go through your personal network as your 'leads' and it can be tiresome asking all your friends and family to buy your life insurance. The money can be VERY good in financial advisory (6-figures while working less than 30 hours a week) but you have to be one of the top advisors to make bank and you have to put in alot of time and work in the beginning with no guarantee of success.
On the other hand, if you do sales for the logistics company, there's a lower ceiling in terms of pay but there's a much higher floor so it's less risky. Another benefit is that the skillset you gain from working for a logistics company is alot more transferable than what you would learn at Northwestern Mutual.

I remember your post about the logistic company. Glad you got into the field you wanted. I was looking into HR also but I don't know if I have the right qualities for it.
I'm good friends with 2 sales guys at my old company. One is doing six figures annually and the other one barely breaks the mim. commission each month. The base pay is 40k-60k I think.
The one doing six figures has been in the business for 10+ years and build up a large client base... he was once the regional sales manager on the east coast but his situation changed.
Just know you'll be working with a lot of international ppl so the language barrier might be a challenge when things don't go as planned.

I begin training for my new job (lg marketing rep) on monday. I'll be in Atlanta for a week, but the actual job is in San Antonio, which is whrre I am now trying to find an apartment. I have a broken lease from 2013 and it's very challenging finding a decent location that will work with you. My last 12 months of rental has been perfect, never late. Regarding the complex I applied to today, I make about 4 times the rent, they need to look past that mess from a few years back and see that I'm on the right track now,smh. I showed up in my military uniform when I applied, this is a big military town so I hope I can use that to my advantage.

Look at har.com and Craigslist for rentals. try to rent from individuals instead of complexes.

I was sent a part time job offer that I think some of you may be interested in.
Sounds like a good job to have if you're in the DMV, like teaching children, like video games and technology, have your own car and need some extra cash.
Apply if you're interested or feel free to pass the information along to some else who is.

Had an interview they asked for a copy of my drivers liscene and social security card is that a good sign? I know most companies don't want a copy of ssi card unless you get the job.
