Anyone willing to explain the basic steps of getting a J2 as a consultant or contractor? Do I need an LLC first? Do I do paperwork then find clients or wait till I have clients first?

Hi All,

Does LTI provide revised offer letter with new joining date and new salary structure?

If yes how much time it takes?

Thank You

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

anyone who moved to UK without a last name on passport?

How does everyone track their daily and long term work to-dos (lists)? I am not the best at organising and feel overwhelmed with tracking and prioritising. Any tips?

Bonus and comp raise %?

Got Covid (again) from a holiday party this past weekend…. Many other people at the party also tested positive, and 3 got booster. Be careful out there folks!

Can someone discuss the pros and cons of having a gym close to work vs having a gym near home but still would have to commute there, go back home then go to work. To me it seems more convenient to just on the way to work go to the gym, shower, then go into the office.

Ps: yes, I'm in the office.

Any guidance on evaluation for GS-13/14 level attorney-adviser positions? Matching resume but credentials aren’t insane.

Anyone up for chat😔😔 Feeling low...

I know a young designer looking to make some connections (coffee, info interviews, agency tours, etc). She's great/talented and my agency wants to hire her but haven't pulled the trigger. Leads?

WELL DONE BAKU

Any suggestions on good books on consulting for reading during holidays

How has working in this industry influenced your politics, if at all?

I wish I was overemployed. Searching for gigs, but nothing yet. Any tips on how to get one or more extra jobs?

Anybody working in consulting and OE?

This concept fascinates me & since I saw it on Reddit, I wanted to bring it here. Tell me what your experience has been like :)

Anyone OE who is a people leader in both? I currently manage 1 person and interviewing for J2 but would have a team of 4ish analysts. Any advice?

Did you change anything on your resume when you have 2 FT jobs?

Anyone have multiple FT jobs? I'm looking about to land a new primary FT job, as my current job is very very slow, doesn't really have any projects for me, and could end at any time (with a 30 day notice).
Where there any legal issues? (The two companies area in different industries so no competition). How did you manage both? The new company knows I'm still employed, should I quit the first or keep it as long as I can manage both? Any bad vibes or feelings of unprofessionalism? TIA

How do you go about your LinkedIn profile after having gotten (or in the works of getting) job2? Do you add an end date to your current job?… do you deactivate your LinkedIn? 😅… how do y’all go about it?

I really want to get a second job but I am scared of losing my current one. Both companies are in same field, although not direct competitors so I know it’s technically “not allowed” however, this is the only way for me to get that $$ since I am not paid all that well.

Of course I won’t tell a single friend/coworker. Only my partner. And I don’t post work stuff on social media.

Realistically what are the ODDS of being caught? Is there a legal/HR process with which they could find out??

How did the interview process go when they asked "why do you want to leave your current position"?

I am wondering if I can do this. It feels daunting but also I’ve accepted an offer from another company but don’t know if it is what I want but I think I also don’t feel comfortable in my current situation. I wonder how long I could maybe do this but not sure.

Has anyone taken STD/parental leave at both Js?

Does anyone have any insight on picking up a J2 while working for the US Federal Government? Does holding a high security clearance play a role in maintaining a J1&2; as in, will periodic clearance checks for J1 hit on J2?

How do you manage your LinkedIn with a few full time jobs and each company asking you update your LI profile to reflect the job?

Anyone with two full time roles run into the issue of having conflicting meetings? What do you do?

When picking up a J2, how much should you include about J1 on a background check?

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job. Third: As the main job always has the priority, the Second and third jobs must preferably be contract gigs with not too many meetings everyday. Remember: another day, another dollar.

Currently an HR Generalist looking for a second remote job. Does anyone know of any opportunities? I’m currently freelancing as well.

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?

Does j2 background check decline you if they see you’re still employed with j1?

Ok, I’m in. What are the salaries of some of the jobs you guys are doing, and the daily demands (hours and typical time of day you need to be “online”)? Are we talking working 2 90k jobs or the second job is a $35k data entry side gig?
