Had a 3.2 in undergrad at UC Berkeley. Struggled with mental health 2 of my semesters, which reflects in my transcript pretty evidently. Is it worth writing an optional essay about? Just don’t want to be dinged and not seen as capable for grad level courses bc of that

MBA grads who financed most of the experience through loans, any financial advice? Did you choose private loans over direct PLUS? How much did you take on to cover living expenses? How long will it take you to pay it all off?

Just enrolled in a full time program for next year and though I think my school is worth it, getting a lil nervous about the financial burden. To give some context, I got a small scholarship (25% ish of tuition), have about $60k in savings, and will be living in Evanston

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad. I’ve worked twice as hard and feel like I’ve barely even gotten half as much. It’s discouraging sometimes especially because I worked so hard with pretty much no guidance (first gen, poc, low-income) to get into college and do well and then get into a t30 law school

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?

Hi guys currently I'm working in a project with very stringent timelines. Sometimes we need to put more than 13-14 hrs each day. There are 4 members in my team. Two are involved in database prt and me and my lead are involved in the front end and middle layer prt. Somehow my lead is not at all pleased with my work. And even if I try to talk to him for something he is completely rude. Sometimes it makes me that I m completely useless. Even the other team members are following the lead

I am a Chartered accountant and truth be told given the current times CA is a really low incentive education any potent person can get. Today I see engineers barely with a few years of experience earning lakhs per month. Whereas me despite being in the right place at the right time is working hard 10-11 hours each day even today. We as a forebearers of this profession must really rise together

Alabama shuts out two ranked SEC teams in a row. SEC is... overrated. That’s my takeaway.

Is it a viable business opportunity for a mid level patent litigation associate to leave BigLaw and consult? Service could include pre-litigation diligence (e.g., pre-litigation infringement analysis) for funding companies and law firms, overflow work, consulting for patent prosecution firms that take on ipr or litigation work, litigation consulting for tech companies that don’t have in-house counsel. Cross posting this in the BigLaw bowl.

Anyone transition from healthcare to legal sector? I reached out to a recruiter because I’m looking to make that transition from healthcare administrative to a legal project coordinator. What are some transferable skills and goals I can best illustrate to recruiters and hiring managers?

It’s Thursday night. That means it’s “wine confession” time for me. 😂 AMA?

Hello fellow olds!! I was just at a work dinner and HH. Three drinks and food and weeeee! Damn. Such a lightweight now! 😂 Hope you all are enjoying the night. 😘

Everytime I see this bowl name. I read it as wife confessions and keep getting scared.

Gosh i just posted on the wrong bowl how do i undo or move to this bowl? 😣☹️

I just discovered that scheduling a call for 7 am the morning after a boozy team event is the best way to get easy agreement and consensus. No debating for the sake of debating when everyone is sleepy! 😂

How to keep this bowl rolling?

I’m showing my age I guess but it’s really hard to tell who’s on the cover. It’s Usher right?

How's everyone's back and knees doing

Has anyone noticed a weird change in the original confession bowl lately? A lot of new people posting some really ✨interesting✨ takes and just being kind of creepy?

What happened to all my badges?

For some reason i cant stand teslas. Anyone else? Why do you like or dont like them?

Bowl is getting awfully quiet…must be past 8pm Zzzzzz

Got an offer at a great company. Ive done this job before but moved away from it because it burnt me out because of the people and it scarred me. I have found out i have ptsd from it and am scared to start the new one. Been working on ptsd thru therapy. I know its a great firm and a great opportunity but my ptsd is bad. Another company last wk reached out same field diff role more chill and behind the scenes and i cant help but think about the easy way out over the challenge and better future.

I know everyone raves about the chicken sandwiches from Popeyes and Chick-fil-A. But I personally like Wendy’s chicken sandwich and Mickey D’s McChicken.

I could be watching the man burn right now but I was too jaded to get up there this year.

Why do partners feel the need to speak when they obviously have very superficial knowledge about the topic? So exhausting pushing back on stupid ideas, needless analysis, unnecessary credit taking attempts and spending time making their input sound coherent with what was already aligned with client. Let me manage and please just get out of the way…

This bowl fell off. Typical 35+ behavior 🤭😄

What you guys are planning for the long weekend?

Any suggestions to filter the infestation?
