AMA. I'm a former Deloitte Manager who was laid off last year. Recently signed with FAANG with onsites at FB, AMZN, AAPL, Groupon, Capital One. First rounds at GOOG, Netflix.

This community helped me a lot and I would like to give back by answering questions to the best of my ability. Resume tailoring, consulting to tech fit, interview prep etc.

Is anyone expecting agency layoffs at the moment?

Is there anyone who completed the last SHL test and is waiting for the result or call back from HR. For me it's almost a week now after completing the last SHL test but no reply from HR.

Note: Completed all the rounds and documents are also submitted.

Please share here if anyone faces the same situation or any relevant scenario.

Anyone know any biotechs/Pharma (ideally oncology-focused) that are looking for a VP (or even SD for the right TC) of BD/CorpDev and allowing for remote/travel models (if not Boston-based) or at least a Boston-based hybrid model?

Feel free to share any company names with open roles or DM, if preferred.

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
