Anyone have experience starting a biotech startup? My co-founder and I have an idea but it will require many years of R&D before commercialization. Wondering what are our options in getting funding to do the research required.

Looking at potentially applying to govt grants but am lost in the sea of options. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Friends,

I have total 11 years of experience in IT (Enterprise applications:Oracle Weblogic) and 4 years in DevOps, Git, Google Cloud, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes. Currently working with Accenture India. I have been trying for almost a month in LinkedIn (applying for jobs as directly messaging recruiters) for opportunities in London, however not getting any positive response/interview calls.

If anyone working in UK can refer me in their organization, would be really helpful

Interviewed for a role last week and have not heard back. Is it too soon to follow up with the recruiter on status?

I had an interview scheduled on Friday 2nd Dec for Teradata developer. I completed my technical interview. Interviewer told me he would connect with me soon. I wanted to know how many rounds of interview would be there?
Yoe - 6

EY interview Experience

If I'm applying to a firm as a second year and the application requires a writing sample, would it be better to attach a brief I wrote in law school, or a brief written during my limited practice, which was revised by both a senior associate and shareholder?

Anyone working or know about the company ‘TietoEvry’. A friend of mine got an interview call and wanted to know about company culture and pay range etc.

Feeling disheartened after sending out 100+ applications with radio silence back. No rejections but no invited to interview either. I feel like my resume looks good, but I have not gone the referral route as of now. 1 YOE

I'm considering applying for all the Contact Tracing jobs I keep seeing. Any clue what the pay is?

What is your job title? As it right now I’m managing a team of product owners and I’m unofficially being called “Chief Product Owner.” I’m in the process of working with a coach to get my resume updated so I can begin applying for external roles. But I don’t even know what job titles to target.

What kind of questions can one expect in interviews with the A&M PEPI practice?

I'm working in the US under H1B, I got a chance to face an interview for another company. My current company started the PERM application also and results will be out within the next 3 months. Is it okay to transfer my H1B to a new company? Can my H1B transfer be denied? How long will my green card application delay if I move to a new company and start to apply for a green card from scratch?

Anyone interested in joining the MIA office of DLA Piper? All transactional areas (M&A, Capital Markets, RE, Tax, PE). Very flex hybrid environment and NY market salaries/bonuses. All associate levels.

Anybody here who gave interview for senior business analyst role in IQVIA?

Is it worth it to go back to school for a better track to a FAANG company? The division I’m currently in seems like there are no good opportunities, and I have the funds available to finish my undergraduate full time (Canada). I applied to Amazon before for a highly senior position and made it to final interview so I think I would have a better chance for a new grad type role.

Hey guys,

Hi 👋 I’m a Bank Manager with 12+ years of banking experience looking to transition in fintech sales. I don’t have software exp but banking sales and business development exp. I’m looking for midmarket or enterprise sales executive roles? Ive been applying with no call backs. Any referrals or suggestions please.

If you are leaving your firm and putting in your two weeks notice, what should be on your checklist to make sure your transition is the smoothest, both for you and for the firm you’re leaving?

Is there anyone going back full time? If so, when? Curious to hear thoughts on that if you are returning to the office 5x per week

I have 5 YOE in Analytics... always thought I wanted to be a DS, but every job (even the junior ones) required experience in ML development. Though I am part of the ML project, I'm not the person develop the model. And I have a hard time when the interviewer ask about how I develop the model and what hyperparameters I tuned. I know the thought process and stuff but 'I' wasn't the one who did that part in the project. How to convince them that I could do the job without taking credit of others.

What is nowadays EY paying for newly promoted FAAS manager?

Anyone work at a school who that puts on plays or uses video of the stunt body or staff acting out what the school values are?

Hi everyone, I work at an early stage start up that just closed our round A. I just hired a director below me, however when it was time to come up with an offer I was removed from the conversation. The CO-founders said they’d handle the actual offer amount/equity. I joined early so salary is low but I have decent equity. Not sure if they didn’t want me seeing the offer or if this is normal for early start ups.

Hello, Can anyone share the real world process of sales pipeline in the IT company and process of acquiring new customer?

Hello!

Recommendations on the best podcast, book, or other medium to learn more about “entrepreneurship through acquisition”?

From reading a number of books and listening to a number of podcasts about starting a business, one underlying factor they all share is to have deep passion for what you do. How do you know what your passion is? I mean I think a lot about golf but i don’t think that’s a passion. It’s my hobby. I think most people just know.

A CPA told me to form an LLC in _two places_. The state I just moved to (Nevada) and wyoming/Delaware. Seems weird to me...is this actually necessary just because I now live in Nevada?

Who is hiring Human Capital and Learning Development roles right now?

Need all opinions I can get. Interviewing at a place, and there are a few flags. (Details in 1st comment)

What do you do when you have a crisis of confidence as a founder? I’d like to learn some structured approaches to dealing with it, but also maybe the answer is to just let all the feelings loose then regather?

Hi folks, I am working with a few friends on a fintech idea. I opted to build the marketing roadmapping strategy for the soft launch/prototype phase as I want to learn about the field. Any guidance where should I start? Any guidance, books, topics will be helpful 😊

So...I started my own company in 2018. Things went off like a ROCKET. Its a small Remodeling company and we specialize in higher end bathrooms and kitchens etc. I love working with my hands. I also have my education though and...I am going to return to tech work. I just wonder..when is enough enough? When do you pull the plug?

Any good recommended books on how to build a scalable product and team? I'm looking for recommendations for two areas: 1) in general laying the groundwork in a startup to have the tools and especially processes in place to scale, and 2) tactical focus on building a SaaS project. I've been promoted into a management role from Dev roots, so need to learn more PM processes to be an effective manager in day job, plus would like to start building my own SaaS solution.

Hey 🐠 We’re looking for a technical co-founder for a music/metaverse project (pre launch). Game development / Unity, plus Web3 experience a plus.

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?
