@M1 that could also mean that it's more vague... Depends on your personality. Tech is way more specific.

I did from tech to HC....the work is harder in some ways and easier in others....I would never ever go back

Has anyone switched from HC to tech? And how was the transition

I'm always on the look out for my next opportunity or passively job searching. To that end, I believe in staying connected with my network through out the year and not randomly approaching them for a position/opening. However, at times, it feels the communication is coerced and there is a lack of rapport. Anyone else struggle with this? Thanks!

I cringe at this attitude towards the workplace by students, anyone else relate or am I being negative?
