Anyone take the CIPM recently? How was it?

I found a place with great reviews to be diagnosed for ADHD, but it’s through virtual appointments, is this a normal thing?

Failed REG by 2 points... I feel defeated and honestly don’t know if I can do this anymore

Privacy fish - Anyone taken the CIPM and can share what the exam is like?

Content outline seems like application of standard consulting approach, so how do they test it on an exam?

Any advice with anxiety before calls/door pulling? Never happened before but it’s crippling now.

Has anybody given nab codility test.please let me know

If you've been struggling with depression and anxiety to the point you need therapy and medication, do you think it's best to share this with close workers?

Sometimes I get overwhelmed at work due to these issues. Could mentioning these problems backfire?

What are your thoughts on this?

Curious what anyone thinks about cologne? Is it a turn on? I am not really into it.. but I just got a whiff of this dude at the gym and the cologne did something to me 🥰 It was really subtle. I tend to just like the way a man smells (not body odor but just natural scent) and don’t usually like it covered up, but wow this guy tonight 🥵 I might might buy some but i figured it would be gay to ask him “what are you wearing” because that prob isn’t something the bros at the gym do.

Anyone has used hydration pills to get through fasting? Is it helpful?

Can anyone recommend a good psychiatrist who handles medication that isn't crazy expensive. Thanks!

Has anybody else experienced (what seems like) irreversible physical damage from working long hours? I worked about a month of 19 hour days 2 years ago (this was the peak of the season where I worked at least 12 hours a day) and my facial skin hasn't really recovered and the experience really aged me.

When it comes to therapy do I look up a place online and make an appointment or do I need some sort of referral? Not sure if I need to see a therapist or physiatrist really.

I’m interested in pursuing cosmetic dermatology (possible Botox and laser treatment) for the first time. I’ve done a ton of research and the derm I’m most interested in going to charges a $150 consult fee but does NOT apply that cost to any treatments you get, whereas from my research it seems like derms in my city usually do apply the consult fee to the treatments. Would you pass on her due to that additional cost, or consider it worth it to see the derm you want to see?

I have a question for associates, what would help you the most in your job right now? It could be technical, communication, training, mental health. What are you biggest problems and struggles?

Anyone else riding the $HIVE wave?

I left bedside nursing and the hospital 2 years ago. I don't feel guilty about it and honestly this pandemic

How do you approach a stinky middle school kid or their parents with hygiene suggestions? I don’t know how to politely tell anyone that they smell bad.

I want to say I love working at my school, but I'm a little frustrated. Yesterday was bus driver appreciation and the teachers went outside after school to hold signs for them, amazing right? Today is secretaries day and they posted signs all over the office for them, I find that 100% fantastic! The problem I have is that paras and janitors we're barely acknowledged. Our sunshine said something to us a days after para appreciation day and my team, sped and grade team, both acknowledged us...

Anyone ever mount a tv in their apartment and then suddenly hear way more noise from your neighbor?

Seeking a sublet / pied-a-terre situation, ideally in manhattan near soho. 1-3 weeks every 1-2 months. I can give more details via DM!

I just wanted to reach out and let you all know I understand how tired and beat down we all feel at this point in the year. I’m feeling it too. I also know exactly how students can try us. What I’m working on every day though is to see my kids as God does… not the kids that know how to push buttons and drive me crazy, but as the beautiful lives they are, all deserving of the best we can give them every day. I know it’s not easy, but that’s what I’m working on.

Is it normal for a California employer to include a very detailed notice in the employee handbook about employee monitoring practices and the company’s right to search your stuff? Or do I need to look for a new job immediately….. 🚩

Low billable, low pressure work in privacy law? Slowly realizing that as my boys get older, the money isn’t worth what I’m missing out on. Currently a tech litigation associate with lots of hearing, depo and trial experience (I’ve appeared on my own at hearings/depos) at a well respected firm. I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.

How can I stop data brokers from selling my information to political campaigns & other Ad compaigns? I don't live in California so CCPA does not apply to me..

I feel like a mega nerd saying this but I just got staffed on my first data breach response and I'm having so much fun! 🥸😅

Anyone have any CIPP/US practice questions besides the 30 from the IAPP?

What certifications should I get if I’m looking to go into cyber like data breach matters?

Has anyone taken the CIPP/US exam online/remotely? Also how many times did y’all reschedule before actually taking it…I felt like I kept putting the registration off, so I finally scheduled it for this weekend—that won’t be happening.

Hi all,
Been doing privacy for about a year now in-house. Got my CIPP/US.
Having major imposter syndrome still. I feel like the minute I finally have a grasp, something changes. The law and nuances just seem overwhelming. Maybe it’s just a lack of guidance/uniformity in the US. I’m not sure if I feel this way because it is simply the nature of the work or because I’m just not capable.
😔

Hi all! I’m inclined on taking up the CIPM training and certification exam. I’m already a certified Data Protection Officer in the Philippines. I intend on skipping CIPP as it applies to the US and EU.

How difficult was the exam? Can you share your experience studying for the CIPM exam? Is it advisable to skip CIPP?

Many thanks in advance.

Do law firms ever cover the cost of the CIPP/US certificate?

Can creditors go after my US assets if I file for bankruptcy in a different country? Not sure if this is based on US law or that country's law (Spain)

IAPP is such trash. Why does everyone recommend getting the CIPP certs when they mean nothing??

For anyone who has the CIPP/US certification, how long did you study for the exam?

Best law firms in NYC for privacy law, especially if you’re a judicial law clerk with no experience but studying for the CIPP/US?

So as a 30ish yo with a government/PE/tech background and CIPM/CIPP… I’m finding privacy work is just much easier and interesting than other kinds, but still pays plenty well.

Is it too late/inadvisable to go to law school to specifically aim for privacy work?

I just find some firms are unwilling to entertain the idea that anyone but a lawyer has anything relevant to contribute in this space…

What circumstances under the Gramm Leach Bliley Act would trigger reporting to the FTC, if at all?
