Anyone have tips for getting into preschools with horrendous waiting list? I’m playing up the community aspect, how much we agree with the philosophy, but what really gets you selected? Does the fact that my partner and I both have impressive jobs matter?

Usually, it’s not a matter of clout or connections with preschools (as opposed to private schools), but a letter of following the steps. If there is a day to call to get on the list- call at the exact first moment, etc.

Usually preference goes to those with siblings in the school. Then I think they make sure there’s a good balance of boys/girls. So it’s a bit of luck/chance. Not sure where you’re located, but there tends to be A LOT of movement once families commit to certain preschools and they make their way through the waitlist. In SF, we were waitlisted at 4 we applied to, and eventually got in to 3. Don’t stress!

Unfortunately he’s the only one, so no sibling connection for us to lean on. Out of curiosity, how long were you on the waitlist before you got in?

The community connection helps. Like another poster said, a lot of times if you wait a spot opens up by the fall. It’s stressful to wait though.

Hello Folks,

I had my first round of technical discussion with Deloitte India on 31st March.
How long it takes to hear back from them for the second round interview ?
Will they inform if I’m not selected?

I am stuck in IR purgatory. I hate IR. I started off my career ten years ago as a deal guy. Then my firm asked me to shoulder IR responsibilities as well. Now I am finding each job I change to promise “you will do both IR and deals” but it’s always a lie. The firms just want a fundraiser. Deal people are more plentiful. How do I get out of this trap?

Coach

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).
