Walmart - E2E Analytics | MS - Business Analytics | MBA | SQL | Tableau | Analyzing large datasets and extracting insights
Perseverance and belief in capabilities: 😮 I had applied to 240+ applications at Walmart, interviewed for 6 roles. I was not a good fit for some, while some roles were closed due to restructuring. 🤓 Being through the taxing job search journey, the takeaway I would like to provide is to be consistent in your approach, and hard work delivers results. 85%+ of the roles were where I was a good fit due to my combination of MS + MBA, and the rest were the roles I applied to only on the basis of my MBA. This is to showcase that applying in bulk is not the key, but keep applying to roles where you are a good fit basis the basic qualifications, and show interest by reaching out to the recruiters and managers on LinkedIn. 😎 I am confident that if I can do it, so can you. One tip I always give to connections seeking help, is the importance of having "dream companies". Have those 5 (varies per person) companies you want to desperately get into, keep networking and conversing frequently with 5-7 employees per company (from your desired domain), and check daily for new openings. 📈 Walmart is a great place to grow yourself as an individual and explore the depths of retail landscape. If you believe in the same dream, reach out to me for a referral. #walmart #networking #jobs #referral

I often get asked, where do I find open positions at Walmart? Here are a couple of links, 1. Here on LinkedIn under the Jobs subheading -https://lnkd.in/gfNqcVpS 2. On our main recruiting site, https:// careers.walmart.com NOTE: I am not a hiring manager or a recruiter. I do not have direct input into most jobs , there for if I don’t personally know you and your work qualifications, I will not provide you a recommendation. I will offer to review your Resume/CV after you apply if you will furnish the position number (starts with R- and then a series of numbers). Please be your own advocate and apply first, I would hate for you to not be considered for a position because I get to your request until after the position is closed. Please remember I am doing this on my own time and I am providing you with my synopsis of your qualifications based on my tenure with the company. If you are looking for a recommendation, I am not your guy.

It took 15 rejections at Walmart before I finally got a job offer. It felt like a lost cause putting in that 16th application. But I did something different with that one. I got ultra-specific on what I wanted to do (sales engineering) and updated my resume and LinkedIn profile to convey that. I also shared this focus with my network on LinkedIn. That’s when a former co-worker of mine reached out about a sales engineer opening in her organization at Walmart. It seemed like a great fit. Turns out it was! Why am I telling you this story? Two reasons: 1/ A company that rejects your application doesn’t mean no forever, just not at this time for that role. 2/ If you’re using the old “spray and pray” approach and applying for any and every job you see, consider slowing down. Get hyper focused on exactly what you’re looking for and pursue opportunities that align with your vision. Anything you’d add? #careerchange #walmart #jobsearch

HR Expert★ Impartial Advisor★Leadership & Investigations Specialist★Master Recruiter★On-Demand Solutions★ROI Enhancer★Global
Be different, Different gets noticed!! Starting work at the Racetrack at 14 in the concession stand taught me valuable lessons. With no cash registers, mental math and counting back change became skills of the trade—rarely seen today. At 16, my wise mom advised me, “Find a company you want to work for and bug the heck out of them.” Taking her words to heart, I walked into Kingsway Mall, approached the first store I saw, and asked for a job. Persistence paid off. Approaching the manager, Mike, yielded no immediate openings. Unfazed, I returned weekly until an opportunity arose. Showing dedication and initiative got me hired on the spot. This experience taught me that job hunting, whether young or seasoned, requires more than just sending out resumes. Networking, reaching out for meetings, leveraging LinkedIn, and seeking referrals set you apart in a crowded job market. Remember, in a sea of applicants, it's essential to demonstrate your unique value to the hiring manager. Stand out by showcasing why you are the best fit for the role.

CAREER ADVICE 🐔🐔🐔 I’ve screwed up 2 promotions in my career, doing exactly the same thing both times. So read this so you don’t make the same mistake! Basically I took on bigger roles (big people management jobs) but didn’t ask for the resources and support that I needed to do them. This meant I was stretched too thin in each role and so they both imploded in a mess and I was left to slink off with my tail between my legs. Luckily I wasn’t sacked…. My ego stopped me asking for the right resources I did need and my overwhelming desire to just be the hero and just smash it. Both my failures took me ages to get over and probably wrecked my career a bit if I am honest. How stupid right? Well its more common than you think as loads of people do the same when they get a promotion. You don’t think you can ask for help from the boss, because otherwise it will look like you can’t do the job and so shouldn’t have the promotion. So when you get a promotion, don’t be an ego driven muppet like me. Make sure you get set up for success and get the resource and support you need. Has that happened to you? #fmcg #hiring #culture #chickens

Director of Technology, Services, Product/Program Management & Transformation Expert: 25+ Years Leading Global Teams
This story of a VP of Sales transitioning to selling electrical goods during a career gap is truly inspiring. Here's a woman who excelled at a high-level position, yet wasn't afraid to roll up her sleeves and tackle a completely different sales challenge. It speaks volumes about her adaptability, her dedication to staying engaged, and most importantly, her willingness to keep learning. This resonates deeply with me, especially in today's competitive tech job market. It's a powerful reminder that growth and development can happen anywhere, even during periods of transition. Just like this VP of Sales, we can all embrace new experiences, hone new skills, and stay sharp until the perfect opportunity arrives. In the meantime, we gain valuable insights and versatility that will ultimately make us stronger candidates in the long run. 🥰
I went to Home Depot this weekend to buy a new refrigerator, washer and dryer. There are so many choices now with technology to use with your phone. The woman who helped me knew everything about every appliance I asked her about. She informed me of the pros and cons and listened to me without trying to sell me. I mentioned to her how much I appreciated her listening to me and that she wasn't just trying to sell me. I stated she must have worked there a long time because she knew about every appliance. Guess what? She told me she had only worked at Home Depot for four months and was a VP of sales who got caught up in a layoff this past year. She decided she didn't want to sit at home while job searching. So she applied to Home Depot. She has a technology background, so the appliance department appealed to her because of the technology in them. They gave her the manuals to take home before her first work week. She studied them inside and out for a week so she would know about all the different appliances. She said doing sales again has been good for her. She is currently in the running with two companies for VP of sales roles. She said the best part has been for her mentally. She still has a purpose. And her job search has not consumed her life. Do what you must while searching for your next right role, even if it is just for your mental health. Or if it is to get by until you find the right role. I promise you it will be well worth it. There is no job that is beneath any of us. Many years ago, I cleaned houses while my two young sons sat in car seats, watching me clean. LOL. But I paid my bills and ended up getting into my first recruiting job at the time. That job changed my entire life. It was a client for whom I cleaned their house and hired me into their recruiting firm. I was a top sales rep for a management consulting firm, making big bucks before that company was purchased and relocated to a different state. So, I was out of a job overnight. So I understand. You got this! #jennsjobs
