I have recently been selected for a partner round at Deloitte for data science consultant position. Can someone tell me what they ask? Also what should be my expected salary in Ireland? Is it wise to state I want around 60k? Or are consultants not paid that much? Please help me. I am new to this. I have a work exp in consulting for 2.5 years and have done my masters recently.

I used to do iron condors on Duke energy (DUK).
Had margin on my accounts though, so I never bought the underlying stock.
I never got into selling covered calls by buying the underlying for the sole purpose of writing calls. You're basically hypothesizing that a stock won't appreciate in value, and then turning around and buying it.
If a stock is quite predictably flat, your premiums will reflect that, and you end up tying up a larger amount of cash into a non-appreciating asset and skimming poor returns off the top. Short-term tax free bond funds would give similar returns, maybe more, once you consider taxes, time, and trading fees.
I will do this from time to time on some stocks that I've been holding for a very long time. I have a few lots of AMD that I purchased ~$2.50 that I'm reluctant to sell for tax reasons. I'll sell OTM calls since there's a lot of speculation driving that stock's options and I don't need to commit any additional cash.
Any good starting stocks to do this on given you need 100 shares? Say $5-10 range?
Yeah, commodities are good right now. CORN/SOYB/CANE for example.
Been trying to do it with QQQ
