Dear JT and Dale: I have been in my company for 8 years. I’ve become the one whose management gives all the special projects. I have worked in HR, operations, sales and marketing. You name it, I’ve been working on it. As a result, I now work 60 hours a week and there is no clear path to my career. I met with management and talked about my future at the company. They told me that they wanted to give me the new title of director of a special project. That’s not exactly what I want! Still, they get the impression that I’ve already decided that the company is higher than ever. How can they change their minds?

Dale: Congratulations! I used to be the director of a special project with the same title, which was a great opportunity. From there, you can work with executives from each department to change your career in any direction.
JT: Well, no congratulations from me. It may be possible to change management’s perception of you, but it will be difficult. For eight years you have not selected a specialty. Instead, you allow your boss to decide on your career. At this point, I think you have two options. One is to identify a particular area of business within one area of business and ask them to focus on that area for a year or two. Or, the second is to start looking for new jobs that can actually build up your skill set. I know it’s hard to hear, but when I go elsewhere, I really grow up and realize what I’ve lost, so I might even return to this employer.
Dale: But they are great options and are set by the job of your special project and the title of its director. With cross-departmental experience, you can perform smaller operations. (In my career, I became the head of a consulting firm from a megacorporation special project.) Or you can rewrite your resume to pursue the most compelling disciplines. Hey, you are special.Embrace
Dear JT and Dale: I got a new job three months ago and the CEO lied about everything during the interview. I am surprised at how this company is run. I’ve even been told by customers to lie. Unfortunately, we are in a financial situation where we cannot live without income. I’ve only been in the company for three months, so I don’t think recruiters are looking at me. How can I explain that I want to quit?
— Ethan
JT: This situation is common and seems to be more frequent during and after the economic crisis. There are many bad guys out there who know it’s difficult to get good people into the company, but try to do anything. The first thing I do is make a list of employers you were talking to before you got this job and contact those recruiters again.
Dale: Eventually, you’ll face an explanation problem. In most cases, you don’t want to be negative, so it’s considered potentially malicious content. But in your case, the one detail you provided is sufficient. The customer was asked to lie. In the interview, he says he doesn’t want to criticize his employer, but … and here’s one simple example-a lie-and then on.
JT: When it comes to cover letters, don’t elaborate on why you want to leave your current company. Focus on why the contact company is attractive to you. (Rather than talking about their work benefits, talk about what they are doing and why it helps their customers.) Hopefully they will see a short job with their current employer and impress you enough to call you.
