Was in the pipeline for Accenture federal. Got staffed on a project but was told the role was given to someone else internal because of external hiring freeze put in place.

Hi guys,
Looking for a referral in a fast growing tech startup for a business analyst role!!!

Is it true that companies just interview candidates for the sake of meeting a quota and then hire someone internally instead? Interviewed with Charles Schwab a while back and never heard anything. Interview went really well, at least that’s what I thought.

I was recently promoted to a new position at my company. I'm so excited to be taking on this new challenge, but it's not going as well as I had hoped.

I've been given a lot of responsibilities, which is great. But I don't feel like any of them are being prioritized or delegated appropriately. I'm getting a lot of pressure from my manager, who is quite demanding and doesn't seem to understand that I need time to get things done and learn new skills.

Food for thought: the US is actually one of the most racially conscious places I’ve ever lived. Not saying we don’t have a LONG way to go and that there isn’t immediate important work needed.
But the amount of allies this movement has is incredible. Keep in mind this is just my experience and may not represent others- however, in many of the other places I’ve lived or traveled to, racism is almost tacitly accepted. You wouldn’t have people calling out taxi drivers for ignorance for example
