I am a Financial & Strategy Consultant (15+ yrs exp in Banking, Climate/Project Finance & Strategy Consulting) with a pending EB-2 NIW case. I got a request for additional evidence from USCIS. Most of my letters are from known experts. They want me to submit independent expert letters from people who can talk about the significance of my work to the Financial & Management field and US interest, from non-familiar persons. Anyone willing to write me an expert opinion letter highlighting above?

Has anyone here not pursued an extension because client isn’t listening to advice, whitewashes statuses, purposefully misreports (read: lies) despite what data clearly shows, misses deadlines and then just rebaselines dates, etc. because of concern they will fail and try to blame consultants (so reputational risk) and for other reasons (e.g., no value in time billed, other work could be pursued, mental health, etc)?

Hi All,
I recently started working as Associate Project Manager in CBRE project management in New York. I am paid $80,000 plus bonus. I think I am paid less, but just wanted to check with the group here on what you all think.
I have 4 years of experience, Masters in civil engineering.

I am currently working in Europe but would like to relocate to the Middle East. It’s a pain to relocate within the firm (no support from partners, ask you to go for <1 year but keep your old contract, etc.).

Does anyone have experience on directly applying to firms in the ME from Europe? What are potential candidates (besides the obvious choices)?

Any advice on being a leader for the first time? I got hired to run a small section of the agency and have a couple of amazing designers but I’m feeling massive imposter syndrome. They are both so well spoken and I know I bring value but sometimes I feel like I’m not good enough. I really want to develop as a leader and mentor.

Had my HR discussion with BoA and found that they don't have any year end bonus component. It is weird given every bank has that apart from the CTC. Do they have any other reward / bonus and it they don't have, why it is so ?

So I work as a freelancer for an agency. And I have another client outside of that agency. I work between figma files and sometimes use components across files but change and redesign them to fit the project. My manager in the agency was able to "go to main component" and see my other client's project which included some of the agency's icons (they downloaded them online) and some basic tabs and drop shadows components. I feel busted but I shouldn't but can't get over the embarrassment.

Hi everyone. English is my second language. I understand the language, I can write relatively well, but I struggle when speaking. I'm not at all an elegant speaker. I sound so un-smart when I speak during meetings 🥺

Impromptu speaking is a nightmare. I struggle to find the right words for even the simplest things. I struggle to translate my thoughts into words.

I'm looking for advice on how to improve, or even book and course recommendations on how to become more articulate.

I had technical and behavioral interview today at Deloitte Canada for visual analytics and information design position.
In technical round there was a case study to create visual data sheet and present it to technical round.

It went good they asked couple of questions and showed that at some point it lacks of continuity and rest thing is good. I have been told we will discuss and send details to HR and you will get update within few days. What are the chances that they can hire me ?

I had a really weird interview for Creative Director today.

It’s a small startup. HR interviewed me and asked all the hard hitting questions (how do you get design inspiration, how do you deal with design roadblocks, what sets you apart for this role?) which I thought was odd for a screening interview.

They made some affirmative noises then said the next step would be a design test (one pager) which I would present to a panel of interviewers including the CMO.
Anyone else think this is odd?

In an internal where the other designer’s option in objectively not as good as mine. I swear it’s not my ego talking. But the CD seems to give more praise to her. Why does that happen? Is it over compensation? Anyone have the same experience? Would love a CD’s POV.

In your experience, which agencies pay designers the best? Answer however you please! Categories, verticals, specific agencies etc.

Finally got my first role as a UX Designer! Extremely excited and wanted to thank everyone that helped me out with questions and input!

I work in a start-up - and the founder keeps wanting to see design progress day by day and I feel like am rushed and not given time develop design concepts to their potential. And because of that, I am forced to show them where am at, and then they start nitpicking every little thing in the screens designed even though I myself haven't fully finalised them
And based on the comments I change directions and then they would be like oh sorry now I see what you meant then (continued in comments)

Hi- I got two raises last year (one with promotion last December). I believe I am underpaid- partly for my own lack of speaking up and negotiating and not making the best career moves.

With current company 3+ years. People are great. Work could be better. 16 YOE. 72k for medcomms. Was told cost of living raise will be in my first 2023 paycheck. But like- I still have 6 months of living to do until then.

Recruiters telling me I should be at least 100k. What would you do?
