Am I a job hopper? 5 YOE

- 2 by years consulting (2017-2019)
- 1 year startup that was acquired by big tech (2019-2020)
- Took 6-month hedge fund internship post acquisition (2020-2020)
- 1 year 8 months at current company. Likely getting laid off soon… (jam 2021-now)

Laid off. Applying to jobs. Besides networking, what are the top job search platforms/websites? There’s LinkedIn, indeed, monster and Glassdoor. Anything else I’m missing or which is the “best”?

To those who have switched over to freelance: how do you find jobs?

For context, I got laid off recently and it’s been hard to find full time opportunities. I’m also on the lookout for freelance gigs to keep me afloat. I’d appreciate any advice or guidance! 🙏

I don’t think I’m qualified for a lot of jobs. I don’t know basic functions. How does one “fake it til you make it” in industry and not get fired?

I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my manager (now he's acting normal but there were moments where he was condescending/dismissive/mocked my and others work/arrogant/said stuff was "wrong" constantly/belittling the difficulty of tasks etc. in the past project).
Maybe it is "standard chewing out" but it bothered me a lot. So much that I find myself still getting all fired up inside thinking about it...
Idk how to let go of this :/ Thoughts?

Hi everyone, really sorry to hear about the recent layoffs. I would be happy to refer to KPMG—please DM me if you’re interested.

Who here has been laid off? How did you bounce back?

Hello Everyone,

My brother is looking for a job. He previously worked at Amazon as TRMS . They were not on roll so got laid off last month.
Experience 1 year. Looking for fresher jobs for BBA graduates.
Any leads will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance

Is PwC AC doing lay offs?
Especially from Tech Consulting (Insurance/Guidewire) practice??

Just a joke, take it as a joke-
.
Recently Better (dot) com's employees were fired from the job.
If you are some HR/Senior management personnel and hiring them.
You should reconsider your decision as they will make your organisation BETTER. :-)

Hearing of layoffs with some Chicago agencies. MSL...Porter...Ketchum...others? Sign of bad economy coming? Hate to sound skittish, but I lived through 2008

Audit lay off people during recession ?

I wish Ad salaries were like NBA salaries. Each year you get a ridiculous raise no matter how shitty you perform. If you are good you get bird rights and no layoff clauses. And retire at 35.

Deloitte FL/PR is turning into a joke.. if firm morale wasn't already suffering from layoffs, they increase minimum hours through December while half the offices are unassigned. Abandon ship.

Has Deloitte gotten laid off yet?

Ah the great Ad Agency Bubble, your agency is doing great, growing exponentially then boom, clients are lost, there are layoffs and there are no raises/promotions for a year. What do you do jump ship?

Why recently thoughtsworks are hiring women mostly for graduate developer role ??

Got to interview a candidate for Mid senior role... candidate has listed exactly 53 projects on his resume in last 5 year.. kind of shocked to see someone would write each and every ..small and large projects.. 14 YOE .9 page resume ..😭

Current CTC 16, offered 26 by Fidelity - fixed and variable split almost same in current company as well as fidelity

Java, spring boot tech stack

Fair ? Good? Bad ?
Thanks

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!

Hows the company's work culture, management and job security? Is it a very strict company.

I’ve worked 14+ days every day in November except yesterday when I only logged 6 hours of work (billable plus non-billable) (were required to upload our time every night now). How long should I wait after hanging up with our CFO just now who called me to tell me I’m behind and slacking to update my resume?

I have “unlimited vacation” at my firm. How much vacation/PTO is given at big law firms that don’t have unlimited?

What’s next on your expensive wishlist to make this job a little more comforting?

Hey, everyone. I’m originally from Michigan and have decided it’s time to move back to the good old mitten. Does anyone know anyone hiring a Jr. copywriter?

Dubai people I live in Marquise Square tower and my neighbor is having a party literally every day till 4-5 in the morning- I spoke to him and he apologized and promised to keep it quiet but he didn’t. So I spoke to the security if they can tell them to calm down and the security said that he can’t do anything as it’s the weekend! Is that normal or should they give me a noise compliance and force him to stay quiet after some time.
