Have you ever found it hard to settle in to a new job? Have you ever had a tough time with managers, colleagues or customers?
On Tuesday evening, we'll be running an expert chat all about problems at work.
Here are the details:
Who's the expert?
We'll be welcoming Lyssa who works for the global financial company UBS. She has a load of experience of working in different places and is happy to answer your questions.
Lyssa is the recruitment head for two of UBS London's business areas; Wealth and Asset Management, and looks after a team of 8. She's been in recruitment for almost sixteen years, covering a wide range of areas before becoming a specialist, including IT, risk management and graduate. Before becoming a recruiter, Lyssa trained as a teacher and taught French and English to 11-18 year olds. She has lived in France, South Africa and all over the UK, and estimates she's probably conducted over 2,500 interviews and read over 20,000 CVs!
What kinds of things can I ask?
This session is a great chance to get advice about anything related to issues you face or have faced at work. The people you work with, the place or organisation where you work are all things you can talk about.
It doesn't matter what stage you're at, whether you've got a part time job, a permanent job or even a volunteering opportunity! Come along and ask about your particular situation.
How will the chat work?
Like all expert chats, this will be open to everyone. The moderator (me) will ask the room who has a question and then ask you to take it in turns to put them to Lyssa. You'll also be more than welcome to chip in by sharing experiences and ideas that might be helpful to others.
You will be able to log in as normal on the night in the usual place: http://www.thesite.org/chat/live-chat
What if I can't make it but I have a question?
We can accept questions in advance and put them to Lyssa on the night, however live questions will take priority. If you have a question you'd like answered then please PM me with it.
