44: Early Career Q&A, Part One: Negotiation, Setting Boundaries, Managing Your Inbox, and More, ft. Ellie Peterson

Knowing many of you may be facing career advancement opportunities around this time of year—accepting a new role, negotiating for a promotion, or getting your footing in an early career transition—we thought it’d be helpful to take some time answering your questions and sharing our candid experiences as early professionals in the full-time working world. In part one of two, Chloe chats with Ellie Peterson, also a member of The Passages Project team, about strategies she’s leveraged to feel confident establishing and growing professionally from day one.

In this episode, we discuss:

Did we negotiate for raises for our entry-level positions?
When is it okay to take a pay-cut?
How can you earn your manager’s trust as early as possible?
How can you respectfully establish work life balance boundaries while still demonstrating you are willing to work hard?
How do we organize our weekly to-do lists, inboxes, and calendars?
And (to be continued)...

Stay tuned for part two next week, when we discuss giving and receiving feedback, partnering with your manager to improve in your role, when it’s time for a promotion, and when it’s time to leave.
