I've been with my boyfriend for about 2 years now. I only get to see him on the weekend because we have opposite working schedules during the week.

This annoys me since he sees his family throughout the week but my only quality time is on the weekends. He also hasn't been doing anything to get him closer to his life goals because his family always asks him for his time and money....

Hi, we're searching for a job in HR for my wife. She's an MBA from India and has 10 years of work experiences across various HR roles in FMCG and Tech. Her last role was a HR BP and India site lead for a US based semiconductor major.
Is CIPD necessary to get a comparable role in the UK? While we undersrand it's a new market, would she necessarily need to start from a basic role again? It's difficult to balance studies, work and manage a 2 y.o. Any pointers or job openings would be appreciated.
