They were formerly my client. Super super smart team. Also crazy hard working and close knit. Overall really great vibes and seems like rewarding work.

HBO is an old school, hierarchical, dinosaur company with zero leadership or vision in its product or programming on how to keep up with its competition at Netflix, Hulu or Amazon. With the AT&T acquisition, I imagine it will only get worse. HBO peaked in 2011.

Hello,

I am a 3rd year insurance defense attorney with product and premise liability experience. Due to long-COVID, I am likely to lose my job.

The plan is to find a government position that would involve more substantive litigation and trial work, then leverage that into the private sector a few years down the line.

Any advice would be appreciated regarding networking, where to start, etc. Thank you.

Evaluating 2 opportunities, industry vs consulting: Vodafone and PA consulting(equivalent) , base pay around 95k - other perks largely similar, 11 Yoe. Would love to hear pros and cons, to make a decision.

Tech Mahindra Hey guys, I attempted Hackathon by tech Mahindra (for jr java developer 1-3 yr exp). After 3 days I received a call from hr confirming that I have been shortlisted and took hr round on that call. Later I received a document verification mail asking for all essential docs which are required for joining, but didn't received any offer letter yet. When I cross checked mail address with my friend in tech Mahindra, he confirmed that such hr exists with same e-mail id. Is it normal in tech Mahindra?

I believe I was just ghosted by 2 different recruiters within a 3 hour window. Is that some sort of record? Do I get a prize?

Do you regret leaving a previous job? What were the reasons you left?

So just had my first Amazon interview interaction the other day and its BS. I got invited to take part in the interview process by first answering a bunch of situational/case study like problems and then had to complete this long work style assessment after which they requested a call/interview only to find out the comp for the role is way below my target. Why would you make people waste so much time on your stupid assessments before asking expected salary range?!
