Anyone work at a firm that uses Skype for business as the work phone (no physical phone)? What tips do you have to make it work best? I.e. call forwarding to cell, etc. I’m new to it and struggling.

Install Skype app on your cell and make calls as if you are doing from desk phone. Also, I agree above on the suggestion about routing the calls to your cell phone.

Yes

You don’t need the app on your phone to use the forwarding service. I refuse to download any work technology on a personal device, nor do I access personal items from my work devices!

If you want to use your laptop, same procedure. Open Skype desktop app, look for dial pad and start making outgoing calls

Yeah we do in Canada and most people forward calls to their cells I believe

When you want to make a call do you just dial from your cell? Do you use the Skype for business app on your phone?

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much! I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do! Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Hi Team,

I have cleared all the interview rounds (WebEx & HR on call) for the position: VERIFIER, and also submitted documents (authentic as per my knowledge) for background verification on Aug. 25, 2022.

How much time usually ICICI bank takes to generate Offer Letter, after all the verification process??

I am curious how other inclusion teachers are being utilized when the school is doing remote learning. I find that I am sitting in the zoom class and have very little opportunity to contribute. I am having discussions with my teachers on ways that I can better support them and the students when remote.
