Besides sports / athletic groups like Volo Sports, anyone have any recommendations for groups to join to meet people? I’ve tried TimeLeft, but curious about other options.

How was TimeLeft / would you recommend it?

Feels like everyone recommends Meetup, running groups, and Skip the Small Talk.

I would recommend TimeLeft. It’s a great alternative to Bumble BFF because they do all the work for you in matching you with a group which aligns with your interests. However, it is obviously hit or miss depending on who you’re matched with - sometimes you will hit it off and sometimes you won’t.

Thank you for the recs!

Or any BSSC sport.. I did free agent teams when I first moved to Boston and still see some of the friends made 14 years ago

How do referrals work?
If I get a referral from someone and I apply, then can I still reach out to a recruiter on LinkedIn expressing interest in the role? And do I let them know that I already applied? I’m sure they get tons of messages so what should I say so that it won’t be overlooked?Im currently unemployed and very eager to get an entry level position in either HR, Marketing, or Project/Program Coordinator in the tech field, so any advice is greatly appreciated.

Is Operations paid the least at your respective firms? I was hired to a Client Service Delivery role with a heavy focus on project management. I regularly interface with leadership internally and at the client. But, I am aligned to the “Operations” capability and make the least of my teammates who perform seemingly identical work but are aligned to “Strategy and Consulting.” I worry I’m on a career path to being paid the least wherever I go, because Operations is in my title and background.

Good morning all I hope all is well. So I'm currently a Computer Engineer (Glorified Help desk support) for the MGM Resorts International Corporate IT office here in Vegas.

I currently have a Bachelor's in Computer Science but want to be Cloud Security Engineer. I'm debating whether to go for second bachelors at WGU in Cybersecurity while self studying Cloud certifications, or doing the Cloud Computing while self studying Cybersecurity certifications. Or just go Masters with IT concentration.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!
