After nearly 20 years in the military serving in T&E and HR roles, I’m considering moving on and have been conducting lots of research into consulting. BS, MA, and SPHR cert - no MBA. I’m looking for suggestions or advise about transitioning. DC Metro area is likely landing spot.

I've been working as a building engineer for this company for 3 years. Within these 3 years I have gotten a HBA C education been paid for by the company.They've had me at a very low number for the whole time that I've been working for them, And without a certification in HVAC I completely understood. But now that I have my certifications I am asking for a pay increase of 25%. Do you guys think I am being fair? On top of my certifications I have been doing the work of 2 engineers for the last 2yr

Currently working in non-FAANG bigtech and planning to get my MBA (M7) in August. Any recommendations on how to ask for potential sponsorship from my employer? Is this something I bring up to HR or to my manager first?

If not sponsorship, would like educational leave since I really enjoy my job.

How does 3 years of full time work experience look for MBA job recruiting? Do people with 3 years compared to 4-6 years of WE get fewer opportunities or interviews?

👋looking to pivot into product management. I come from a Talent Acquisition background and am on track on completing the Project Manager certification from Google/offered on Coursera. I’m looking to complete a Scrum certification in the nearby future that will hopefully enhance my profile. After research and connecting with other PM’s, I’m truly stuck on what that next step would look like? (I feel like I’m missing something to get me through that door…) what have you done to get you there?

All,
Need advice for one of my friend.
He is currently in a teaching field and wants to move to IT industry. He completed his B.tech around 7-8 years back.
Any realistic chance if he can move in IT?
He is currently preparing for Scrum Master certification.

How much tenure should you have at your latest firm before applying for a MBA? Worried that if I switch now I’ll have less than a year before recommender deadlines, and that might not be enough time to secure a quality recommendation.

Thoughts on getting a CAMS certification as a Staff/Senior?

Looking for advice and recommendations on starting a non-profit healthcare case management company in my area. The focus population served would be low-income seniors with the primary customers being primary care offices that could obtain contracted case management services based on the practice’s needs/financial constraints.

I have my MSW & nearing completion of my MBA. I have 11 years experience, 6 in healthcare inpatient&outpatient.

What recommendations do you have on starting this process?

Hi fishes,

I have completed AWS sysops Administrator Associate certification and looking for a job change now having total experience of 5.5years into monitoring, troubleshooting with AWS.
Is it the right time to change ? Am scared since recision is going on.
Kindly guide me and help me on how much salary I can demand.
Current CTC : 6lakhs

Curious for people’s thoughts on where I should be focused:

30yo, all figures combined for 2ppl:

-$325k household income

-$150k student debt (mix of mba and undergrad)
-$30k misc debt (car, credit card, personal loans)

-$35k in 401k savings
-$2.5k in HSA savings
-$1.5k investment account
-$8k cash savings

Didn’t do so strongly in our 20s (worked at nonprofits, spent outside our means), but want to spend our 30s getting financially secure. Where should we start? Pay down debt? Start saving?

Thinking about jumping in with Berkeley's flex option for the evening / weekend MBA.

Thoughts?

Hello Fishes,

I am Chartered Accountant with 3 years of PQE in Audit and Assurance. I am looking for a job in US or Europe in Financial reporting. Please suggest me the best way to apply there and if there is any other certification that I should do.

Can't help but feel like I'm in a rut. I'm 23 and realized I still haven't accomplished goals that I set when I was 20. I waste copious amounts of time on Netflix. I keep losing weight only to gain it back. I bought a standing desk and am still sitting on my bed to work. I told myself I'm going to accomplish XYZ certification exams over a year ago and started studying 3 or 4 times only to quit studying 3 days in. How do I stop being such a loser. I feel pathetic

PMP or MBA - Your thoughts ?

If you could start your MBA degree over what would you do differently?

Have any firms sponsored mbas for tas people? I really want to do an MBA in the future, but mathematically speaking I will probably be around s2 or s3 when I apply. At that point it may not be justifiable.

Looking for a way to block/restrict all linked in posts from employees of company X. Thoughts?

Applied to transfer to another property, found out that my manager told their manager that I had attendance issues, which she has never talked to me about and even said recently that I don’t have any attendance issues. I have been late by about 10 minutes a couple times when the bus is late, and have had to take a couple of emergency sick days, but I’m usually in the office before her. I technically shouldn’t know that she said it at all so I have no idea how to approach her about it.

I am preparing for a virtual day with 3 three interviews on the same day: case, technical & behavior.

That seems pretty intense. What can I expect? Any tips and/or pointers will be greatly appreciated if.

Does anyone know the salary for Assistant nurse Manager in NYC?

I’m a manager on a new account. There is an acting manager that has been on the account for a few years. Any time I reach out to him for help he is so dismissive and looks for every opportunity to make me look bad. I can’t stand it. I heard he is rolling off this account in the future so I figured just avoid him

How do you bring up exclusivity with someone? I asked if he was seeing other people a couple weeks ago, he said no but was REAL weird about it and we haven’t gone back to that convo since but we’ve continued seeing each other and it hasn’t been awkward. Im not sticking around if we don’t move forward but idk how to bring it up. Im 25f, he’s 28.

I recently started working as a receptionist at a clinic. Before I started, all I imagined was the adorable animals I’d get to see every day. I was not at all prepared for the trauma cases and euthanasias. How do you cope?

Any chance pay transparency (like Colorado and NYC have instituted) comes to the DC area / contractor jobs soon? Fed jobs include the level already!

Has anyone secured a polticial appointment, e.g., a sched C (not talking sec state here haha). At NSC, State, DOD, etc? It’s goal of mine and I think it would be so rewarding, but have no idea where to begin.

In AFS, does my CC have a say in my promotion or is it all my supervisor? My annual performance advocate is my cc btw

Is it me or is every federal agency incompetent? All the fed projects I’ve been on nobody knows what’s going, can’t capture the necessary information, data sets are a joke, nobody is accountable.

I have NEVER seen so many Feds in this early on a Monday. Good to be back

Messed up my public trust eqip. Forgot to list an expunged alcohol charge using a fake id I had in college four years ago bc it was expunged.

I already have an interim.

Anyone work in passports that can help me confirm that my son’s passport will be expedited?

Thanks in advance
