Any ideas on how to prevent my face from lighting up when switching to lighter colored tabs on Zoom/Teams meetings?

Well, that’s happening because lighter tabs output more light from your screen, which can impact the overall lighting of your face depending on other lighting in the room or how pasty you happen to be.

Try a combination of the following:
- Reduce screen brightness
- Increase brightness/qty of other light sources in your space so the screen isn’t the primary light output
- Get a spray tan

Hi Team,

I have cleared all the interview rounds (WebEx & HR on call) for the position: VERIFIER, and also submitted documents (authentic as per my knowledge) for background verification on Aug. 25, 2022.

How much time usually ICICI bank takes to generate Offer Letter, after all the verification process??

So about quiet quitting, at another job I was in I felt I was getting more and more tacked onto my job and picking up the slack of everyone else. I told my boss that I was doing work that was in someone else’s job description and it would be nice if they could help me out by doing their job. He told me, “But you’re so much better at it.” Looking back, I think the whole team was quiet quitting and he was resting on me and so I real quit. What are ya’lls thoughts? Have you ever done it?

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Any fishes here who’ve used zoom for interviews? Did you face any technical glitches while using your personal zoom account on the Deloitte laptop?
