Hi! Things are getting weird in our department - our boss is acting crazy. Yesterday she said we can’t spend more than 5 minutes on coffee, even though we make it in the kitchen and then go back to our desks. Sometimes I only finish my cold coffee at the end of the day.
She also won’t let two people go to lunch together anymore - only one at a time. She says we’ll get back faster that way. Now... she’s even checking who is friends with whom.
And I heard her say “That’s all” like in that movie with Meryl Streep. Maybe she finally watched it?🤭

    Leaders are human. It sounds like this leader is trying to manage work performance expectations but maybe not in the right way. Try to build a solid... relationship of trust with her. Complete assignments timely and ensure you are being productive and meeting your goals. If she continues, ask her to clarify why these changes were incorporated. It may be something simple that you and the team can come to a compromise on. more

I had a job interview at a small company. The director said he was going to lunch and asked me to go with him. He bought me a coffee, we talked calmly and then he said I got the job and could start on Monday. I still don’t understand what the catch is. Or did I really just get lucky and find a job that easily?

'Horrific signal': Young job seekers are arriving with parents to job interviews


Employers are increasingly reporting that parents are job hunting on behalf of their adult children, a development they say has stunned them, according to the New York Post. The surge in hands-on parental involvement is spilling from application prep into interviews and even post-hire office visits, intensifying frustration among managers who say they expect candidates to advocate for themselves,... according to Fortune.

A survey by Zety found that 44% of Gen Zers receive parental support in résumé and CV writing, with nearly 50% of young adults asking their parents to write their resumes, while one in five Gen Z candidates have brought a parent to a job interview and 21% have their parents contact prospective employers directly, according to Fortune.

Assisting in negotiation

Other surveys indicate that 20% of parents attend job interviews with their adult children, and some Gen Z job seekers are allowing their parents to negotiate their salary; a third of respondents said their parents assisted in negotiation, with 10% allowing parents to negotiate directly with the boss and 10% of parents negotiating salaries on their behalf, according to Fortune. The pattern continues after hiring: more than half (56%) of Gen Z workers have had parents visit their workplace outside of formal events.

Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary warned that candidates who bring a parent to an interview risk their résumé going "right into the garbage," calling the trend of parents attending interviews a "horrific signal," according to Fortune.

"Do not send your mother to my office"

The backdrop is a labor market in which millions of Gen Z individuals are struggling with unemployment, with a record number classified as NEETs (not in education, employment, or training). Against that pressure, some employers say parental interventions have crossed professional lines.

In a trending video, a hiring manager addressed the issue directly, stating, "Zoomers, do not send your mother to my office," according to the New York Post. The same manager continued, "Don't have your mother call me on my phone, call my assistant, [or] talk to my other staff about you coming to my office to be an intern. If you cannot have a conversation with me, if you cannot have an interview like grown people do without your parents being involved, if that is where your anxiety is, this is not the place for you."

In another example, a hairdresser described a 20-year-old who brought her mother to a salon interview.

"Dad mode" into his nineties

Not all parents see their engagement as overreach. Presenter Alexander Armstrong, a father of four boys, said he believes he will be sorting out jobs for his children into his nineties and described his "dad mode" as thriving when he is involved in his children's lives, including making sure they have charged phones for festivals or printing everything "just in case," such as gig tickets and boarding passes, according to the Mirror.

He once had to teach his son how to cook at university and admits to embracing the stereotype of keeping paper copies of essentials. That outlook aligns with broader sentiment detected in market research: 68% of parents anticipate their children will continue to call them for help for the rest of their lives, according to the Mirror. more

What should I do? I used to work as a primary school teacher, but I couldn’t earn enough money there. So now I work as a private tutor. I help kids get ready for elementary and middle school. I make good money.
But my parents don’t understand why I left a government job with benefits and a future pension. I tell them it’s better to earn more now and save money for the future, but they still think... I should go back to school work.
They say I will spend all my savings anyway, and that without a pension I won’t have money when I’m old.
What should I do?

Hi! Has anyone had this happen before? I didn’t get a job as an accountant/cashier at a big company because they said I’m not trustworthy.
It’s true I’ve had a few small fines for bad parking, smoking in a public place and my neighbors complained once about loud music when I was celebrating my birthday.
But can they really refuse to hire me for stuff like that? And how did they even find out? I... thought only the police could have that information. Should I sue the police for sharing my private information?

8 Common interview mistakes and how to avoid them


What shouldn't you do at a job interview? WRS take a look at some of the most common job interview mistakes and offer advice on how to avoid them!

Start your preparation a few days before your interview. Research the company by looking at their website, social channels and press releases. Get familiar with your CV and prepare for possible interview questions.

Avoiding last minute prep will help... you remain as relaxed as possible the night before, allowing you to get a good night's sleep so that you are fresh and energised for your interview, and ready to make a great impression on your interviewer.

Plan ahead, research the location of the interview and plan your route. Try to arrive no more than 10 minutes early, it suggests good time management skills, and respect for the company, the position, and even your interviewer. Turning up late to an interview gives the impression that you are not enthusiastic about the position even if you are.

Make sure you've eaten and are well hydrated before the interview, a trip to the toilet just before you get there will mean that you are comfortable and able to give complete focus to your interviewer.

Unless the interviewer broaches the subject, you shouldn't discuss salary on your first stage interview. The same applies to benefits such as holidays, flexible working and company perks. Save these topics for subsequent interviews.

According to a recent survey by CV library a staggering 84.9% of interviewers describe overconfidence and arrogance as a job interview turn-off. It's important to be confident and to give the recruiter proof of your achievements and abilities, rather than walking into the interview like you've already got the job.

One of the best ways of doing this is to give your interviewer figures, stats and facts from your previous work experience, showing them unequivocal evidence that you get results and why you're a strong applicant for the role.

Often the interviewer will ask you why you are thinking about leaving your current role. If you say you hated your line manager or the company it may make the interviewer doubt your motivation for the position and your attitude. Avoid being critical, try saying that you want a new challenge or that you wish to be part of a bigger or smaller company, these are perfectly understandable and suitable reasons.

Avoid being tempted to use your phone at the interview, leave it in your car. Or put your phone on silent and put it away in your bag. Texting, or taking a call during your interview is not only rude and disruptive, but it sends a clear message to the hiring manager that the interview is not your top priority.

Don't be tempted to look at your phone when you're waiting to go into your interview. Instead, pickup some company literature and read through it whilst you wait or look at any marketing material/corporate messages on the wall. This makes a far better first impression.

If you feel like your attention is slipping, try to make every effort to stay engaged. If you're feeling tired try to take in deep breaths and sip some water to re-hydrate. Remember to keep eye contact and make an active effort to listen.

Not listening could lead to you misunderstanding the question and giving a poor answer. Don't let yourself zone out during an interview. Your potential employer will question your ability to remain focused during a day on the job.

Keep your answers concise, no matter how welcoming or friendly the interviewer seems. An interview is a professional situation so don't get side-tracked and start talking about your personal life too much.

At the end of the interview the hiring manager will always ask if you have any questions. Surprisingly, the most common answer to this question is no. This is a missed opportunity to find out more about the company and to highlight your interest in the position and reinforces your suitability as a candidate. Ask questions related to the job, the company and the industry. Don't ask questions that you should have covered in your research! more

Why a physics degree is so valuable in today's uncertain job market


Today's graduates face a shifting job-market influenced by AI, funding cuts and evolving industry demands - but their skills remain valuable across various numerous roles, as Sophia Chen discovers

Nothing stays static in today's job market. Physicist Gabi Steinbach recalls that about five years ago, fresh physics PhDs could snag lucrative data-scientist positions in companies without job... experience. "It was a really big boom," says Steinbach, at the University of Maryland, US. Then, schools started formal data-science programmes that churned out job-ready candidates to compete with physicists. Now, the demand for physicists as data scientists "has already subsided," she says.

Today, new graduates face an uncertain job market, as companies wrestle with the role of artificial intelligence (AI), and due to the funding cuts of science research agencies in the US. But those with physics degrees should stay optimistic, according to Matt Thompson, a physicist at Zap Energy, a fusion company based in Seattle, Washington.

"I don't think the value of a physics education ever changes," says Thompson, who has mentored many young physicists. "It is not a flash-in-the-pan major where the funding and jobs come from changes. The value of the discipline truly is evergreen."

In particular, a physics degree prepares you for numerous technical roles in emerging industrial markets. Thompson's company, for example, offers a number of technical roles that could fit physicists with a bachelor's, master's or PhD.

A good way to set yourself up for success is to begin your job hunt two years before you expect to graduate, says Steinbach, who guides young researchers in career development. "Many students underestimate the time it takes," she says.

The early start should help with the "internal" work of job hunting, as Steinbach calls it, where students figure out their personal ambitions. "I always ask students or postdocs, what's your ultimate goal?" she says. "What industry do you want to work in? Do you like teamwork? Do you want a highly technical job?"

Then, the external job hunt begins. Students can find formal job listings on Physics World Jobs, APS Physics Jobs and in the Physics World Careers and APS Careers guides, as well as companies' websites or on LinkedIn. Another way to track opportunities is to read investment news, says Monica Volk, who has spent the last decade hiring for companies, including Silicon Valley start-ups. She follows "Term Sheet," a Fortune newsletter, to see which companies have raised money. "If they just raised $20 million, they're going to spend that money on hiring people," she says.

Volk encourages applicants to tailor their résumé for each specific job. "Your résumé should tell a story, where the next chapter in the story is the job that you're applying for," she says.

Hiring managers want a CV to show that a candidate from academia can "hit deadlines, communicate clearly, collaborate and give feedback." Applicants can show this capability by describing their work specifically. "Talk about different equipment you've used, or the applications your research has gone into," says Carly Saxton, the VP of HR at Quantum Computing, Inc. (QCI), based in New Jersey, in the US. Thompson adds that describing your academic research with an emphasis on results - reports written, projects completed and the importance of a particular numerical finding - will give those in industry the confidence that you can get something done.

It's also important to research the company you're applying for. Generative AI can help with this, says Valentine Zatti, the HR director for Alice & Bob, a quantum computing start-up in France. For example, she has given ChatGPT a LinkedIn page and asked it to summarize the recent news about a company and list its main competitors. She is careful to verify the veracity of the summaries.

When writing a CV , it's important to use the keywords from the job description. Many companies use applicant-tracking systems, which automatically filter out CV without those keywords. This may involve learning the jargon of the industry. For example, when Thompson looked for jobs in the defence sector, he found out they called cameras "EO/IR," short for electro-optic infrared instruments. Once he started referring to his expertise using those words, "I got a lot better response," he says.

Generative AI can also assist you in putting together a résumé. For example, it can make résumés, which should be one page long, more concise, or help you better match your language to the job description. But Steinbach cautions that you must stay vigilant. "If it's writing things that don't sound like you, or if you can't remember what's written on it, you will fail at your interview," says Steinbach.

Companies fill job openings quickly, especially right now, so Thompson also recommends focusing on networking. "It's fine to apply for jobs you see online, but that should be maybe 20 percent of your effort," he says. "Eighty percent should be talking to people." One effective approach is through company internships before graduation. "We jump at the opportunity to hire former interns," says Saxton.

Thompson suggests arranging a half-hour call with someone whose job looks interesting to you. You can find people through your alumni networks, LinkedIn or APS's Industry Mentoring for Physicists (IMPact) program, which connects students and early-career physicists from any country with industrial physicists worldwide for career guidance. You can also attend career fairs at your university and those

organized by the APS.

Once a company is interested in you, you can expect several rounds of interviews. The first will be about the logistics of the job - whether you'd need to relocate, for example. After that, for technical roles you can expect technical interviews. Recently, companies have encountered candidates secretively using AI to cheat during these interviews. They may eliminate the candidate for cheating. "If you don't know how to do something, it's better to be honest about it than to use AI to get through a test," says Saxton. "Companies are willing to teach and develop core skills."

However, with transparency, showcasing AI skills could be a boon during job interviews. A 2025 survey from the American Institute of Physics found that around one in four students with a physics bachelor's degree (see the graph) and two in five with physics PhDs routinely use AI for work. The report also found that one in 12 physics bachelor's degree-earners and nearly one in five physics doctorate-earners who entered the workforce in 2024 have jobs in AI development.

The emerging quantum industry is also a promising job market for physicists. Globally, investors put nearly $2 billion in quantum technology in 2024, while public investments in quantum in early 2025 reached $10 billion. "You'll have an opportunity to work for companies in their building stage, and you're able to earn equity as part of that company," says Saxton.

Alice & Bob are in the midst of hiring 100 new staff, 25 of whom are quantum physicists, including experimentalists and theorists, based in Paris. Zatti, in particular, wants to boost the number of women working in the field. more

The AI Elephant in the Room: Career Growth or Career Ghosting?

As a career coach, my inbox is usually a mix of "How do I nail this interview?" and "Is my resume too long?" But lately, the vibe has shifted. Whether I’m talking to a Gen Z grad landing their first role or a seasoned executive planning a pivot, the conversation inevitably steers toward Artificial Intelligence.

The reactions... range from the "AI is the Apocalypse" crowd to the "I’ll wait and see" group. To the latter: waiting to see how AI affects your career is a bit like waiting to see if that leak in the basement is a problem while your socks are already wet.Here are the two questions I get asked the most, and my honest, coach-to-client take on them.
1. "I’m worried that AI will eventually replace my position. Should I be?"This is the big one. And look, I won't give you the "toxic positivity" answer. Some tasks will absolutely be replaced. If your job is 90% data entry, basic transcription, or repetitive scheduling, the machine is indeed faster, cheaper, and more accurate.

But here is the distinction: AI replaces tasks, not necessarily roles.Historically, every major technological shift—from the steam engine to the internet—has automated the "drudgery" of a job. When Excel came out, people thought accountants were toast. Instead, accountants stopped doing manual math and started doing high-level financial strategy.

The Human-in-the-Loop Factor:AI is the ultimate "co-pilot." It has the social awareness of a toaster and the ethical compass of a calculator. It can draft an email, but it can’t navigate the delicate office politics of why that email needs to be sent. It can analyze a spreadsheet, but it can’t tell you which business move will build long-term trust with your biggest client.My Answer: AI won't replace you, but a human using AI might. The goal isn't to out-calculate the machine; it’s to lead it.

2. "How will AI impact my growth? Will it limit my opportunities?"Clients often fear that if AI handles the "heavy lifting," there will be fewer rungs on the career ladder. They worry that entry-level roles will vanish, leaving no way to "pay your dues."In reality, we are seeing the "Junior-to-Senior Acceleration."

AI allows you to bypass the two years of "grunt work" and move straight into analysis and decision-making.The Ceiling is Higher: AI doesn't lower the ceiling; it raises the floor. It allows a single employee to do the work of a three-person team, making you exponentially more valuable to an employer.

The Skill Shift: The "hard skills" of yesterday (like basic coding or manual research) are becoming "commodity skills." The new premium is on Human-Centric Skills.The "Old" High-Demand SkillsThe "AI-Era" High-Demand SkillsManual Data AnalysisData Interpretation & StorytellingContent ProductionContent Curation & Fact-CheckingBasic Technical TroubleshootingComplex Problem Solving & EthicsRote MemorizationCritical Thinking & Strategic VisionThe Strategy: How to Stay "Un-Replaceable"If you want to ensure your professional growth remains trajectory-bound, stop looking at AI as a competitor and start looking at it as your operating system. Here is how you stay ahead:

1. Become AI-Fluent (Not an Expert)You don’t need to be a computer scientist. You just need to know how to "talk" to the tools. This means mastering Prompt Engineering—the art of asking the right questions—and understanding which AI tool is the right "hammer" for the "nail" you're hitting.

2. Double Down on the "Soft" (Human) SkillsAs technical tasks become automated, "soft skills" become the new "hard skills."Empathy & EQ: Can you manage a team through a crisis?

Negotiation: Can you close a deal that requires human rapport?Ethical Judgment: AI can give you an answer, but can it tell you if that answer is right for your company's values?3. Adopt a "Beta" MindsetThe era of "learning a trade and doing it for 40 years" is over.

Career longevity now belongs to the most adaptable. I tell my clients to treat their careers like software: constantly updating, fixing bugs, and adding new features.

The Coach’s Bottom LineThe "wait and see" approach is the only guaranteed way to get left behind. AI is a tool, not a destiny. It’s here to take the "robot" out of the human, allowing you to do the creative, strategic, and empathetic work you were actually hired for.The most successful people in the next decade won't be the smartest or the most technical—they will be the most integrated.

My coworker who sits next to me really annoys me, she’s always stealing my ideas.
If I talk about something or mention an idea, she later presents it to the boss like it was hers. She also keeps looking at my screen and taking my project ideas.
I’ve honestly felt like flipping the table, but that’s obviously not an option.
What should I do? I’m tired of her constantly taking credit for my... ideas.

Hi everyone! I need some advice. The director of our company thinks you should only stay home if you have a very high fever. If I just have a cough and a runny nose but no fever, he makes me come to work.
I’ve already worked two days like this and feel like I’m about to collapse from exhaustion. Clients and coworkers are giving me weird looks because I’m coughing all the time. But my boss still... won’t let me go home.
Is there any way to deal with this? Thank you.

We work at a big company, and there are a few women around 50 who love setting up single coworkers. They’ve already gotten two couples married. Now they’ve clearly decided to set me up too.
They act like it’s no big deal, but it’s getting annoying. People keep hinting at things. When I go into the kitchen, they leave so I’m alone with that girl. They’re always finding reasons for us to do things... together.
It’s really frustrating. How can I make them stop? If I want a relationship, I’ll handle it myself.
Thanks for any advice

    Sounds like you need to speak HR, concerning sexual harassment.
    Looking into labor board law on your rights
    Bullying, start looking for a better job... for backup. No one should be pressured into dating. You aren't ready to, you are still working on yourself, whatever your reason is , you can stop being placed in uncomfortable situations.  more

Hi everyone. It looks like our company is planning layoffs, and now they’re secretly testing all the employees. For example, the boss “accidentally” drops a pen and waits to see if someone picks it up. Or he says he’d like some tea and watches who goes to make it for him. There are other situations like this too.
My question is: do they really want to keep only the people who try to please the... boss? Are they ready to let good professionals go just because they don’t flatter him? What would you do in my situation?

    My first reaction is that you may be paranoid. If the boss does engage in such antics, may be I should consider moving to a more professional... organization. Too much time is wasted in trying to catch such antics and discussing the intrigue. more

A couple of days ago I had a job interview, and they asked me to draw a mountain I can’t climb. I drew Mount Kosciuszko because I don’t have the chance to go to Australia (I’m actually into rock climbing and mountaineering).
When we started talking about what mountain it was, their HR person didn’t believe that such a mountain even exists.
That’s when I decided I don’t want to work for that... company.

How To Navigate Long-Term Unemployment In Today's Job Market


Headline unemployment remains relatively low. And yet a growing share of job seekers have been out of work for six months or longer. For many, re-entry is proving slower and more disorienting than expected. As CNBC recently reported, long-term unemployment is becoming a status quo in parts of today's labor market.

If the economy is "fine," why are so many capable people stuck?

For those living... it, long-term unemployment is not a statistic. It feels like sending résumés into a void or being told you are "overqualified" one week and "not the right fit" the next. The system you knew how to navigate no longer operates the same way.

The easy explanation is cautious employers and longer hiring cycles. The harder explanation is structural: many professionals are looking for yesterday's job in tomorrow's job market.

How To Reposition Your Job Search During Long-Term Unemployment

If you have been unemployed for six months or longer and are wondering how to get hired again or survive long-term unemployment, the answer may not lie in sending more applications. It may lie in repositioning yourself for how today's job market actually works.

Treating the job search as a transaction -- find an opening, submit a tailored résumé and wait -- no longer works reliably because roles are evolving before they are formally defined. Organizations increasingly hire around emerging gaps that do not translate neatly into traditional job titles or prior experience.

That is why conversations matter more than applications.

Not the transactional "I'm looking for a job" call. Few people respond well to that. What you want instead are curiosity-driven conversations designed to understand where the work is moving, how problems are being framed and what capabilities are becoming more valuable.

Embark on a "coffee journey." Start with people you already know who are doing work that interests you. Talk to them about what is changing in their field. What new pressures are emerging? What tools are reshaping the way work gets done? What challenges feel unresolved? Then ask who else you should speak to.

This is more than networking. It is research.

As you expand your circle from people you know to people you do not yet know, two shifts occur. First, you begin to describe what you actually know how to do, independent of your previous title. In conversation, you naturally draw on past experiences to engage with current problems. You recognize where your experience is relevant, even if it once carried a different label. A former marketing manager may realize her deeper capability lies in translating customer insight into strategic decisions. An operations leader may recognize that what he brings is systems thinking across complex environments.

Second, you learn to tell the story of your skills in the language the market is using today. You discover adjacent spaces where that capability matters. The marketing manager who once saw herself narrowly as a brand lead may find opportunities in product strategy or customer experience. The operations leader may see openings in transformation initiatives or cross-functional redesign efforts. You begin to recognize needs before they are formalized into job postings. What once felt like a fixed career path starts to branch.

The coffee conversations lead you to a clearer understanding of where your capabilities intersect with emerging needs. They shift your focus from chasing openings to identifying opportunity.

How To Redefine Your Professional Identity During Long-Term Unemployment

Even with that clarity, long-term unemployment can destabilize identity. The longer someone is out of work, the more tightly they cling to their last title as proof of competence.

But employers are not hiring your past. They are hiring their future. That requires more than describing your experience. It calls for reframing how you understand and present your value.

Repositioning begins by asking different questions. What problems do you consistently solve well? What decisions improve when you are involved? What patterns do you see faster than others?

You are detaching your professional identity from job titles and anchoring it in transferable value. In a market where roles morph quickly, job titles are fluid. Capabilities are portable. The ability to synthesize information, manage ambiguity, design processes, build trust or interpret data travels across industries. Over time, that clarity becomes your personal brand, grounded in value and trust, and it opens doors to new possibilities.

How To Upgrade Your Skills For Today's Job Market

Professional stagnation used to be a hidden risk of long-term unemployment. Today it can become an opportunity. Work inside organizations continues to evolve. AI tools are being integrated into daily workflows. Teams collaborate across geographies and time zones. Data fluency is becoming expected rather than optional. If you are out of work, you have something many employed professionals lack: time to learn deliberately.

Employers are far more likely to hire someone who can elevate the team's capabilities, not just fill a slot. That means demonstrating familiarity with emerging tools, new operating models and the changing language of your field.

In a market that rewards learning velocity, forward motion signals adaptability. Experiment with AI tools in your domain. Take on short-term or project-based work that stretches your exposure. Volunteer in a nonprofit navigating digital transformation. Write publicly about how your field is evolving. Teach what you know in new contexts.

Even modest forward moves signal adaptability. And adaptability is increasingly the currency of employability.

How To Make Money And Stay Motivated During Long-Term Unemployment

Financial pressure is real. If you are asking how to make money while unemployed, the answer may not be waiting for the next full-time role.

Project-based consulting, fractional roles, teaching, advisory engagements and contract work can generate income while expanding your network, exposing you to new challenges and accelerating your learning. You do not need to decide that you are done with salaried employment. But you also should not confine yourself to one narrow version of what your next step is supposed to look like.

Careers are becoming more portfolio-based over time. Many professionals will combine employment and independent work across a lifetime. Long-term unemployment can become the moment that opens that broader model.

The key is to treat interim work as strategic, not temporary. Instead of asking, "How do I get back to where I was?" begin asking, "Where does my capability create leverage in the opportunity that is emerging?"

Those who treat this period as repositioning rather than waiting often discover it becomes an inflection point. In a world where careers will stretch across multiple identities, industries and models of work, learning to reposition may be the most important skill of all. more
