Scrum Master with 3 YOE, 1yr in agile. Technical background. Secret clearance and working in Federal. Two in demand certs (SAFe SSM & SGP). Currently making 103.5k in DC. Realistically what is the highest I can negotiate for at competing firms?

Exit interviews, who has access to them? ACN says it's kept within HR and if managers were to ask for them, they'll get turned away. Is that so? Can MD/leadership's from your practice see them?

Hi! Does anyone know what kind of knowledge is needed to crack the Data Scientist interview at Google?

I'm currently working in Marketing Analytics (primarily using SQL and a bit of pyspark). Apart from mastering SQL, I wanted to know from people working at Google what does it take to get there as a Data Scientist? (I'm very interested in Strategy Ops)

I plan to another 6-8 months in preparation and upskilling myself before I even apply.
Any help and guidance is appreciated! Thanks :)

Hi All,
I had my 1st round of interview with Executive Director and 2 leads for Technical role. I have 2 queries-
1. How many rounds should i expect in total considering I clear everything? (I think my first round itself has technical + manger/director)
2. How long (time) will it take to get an offer?
TIA :)

Any folks here familiar with the Fremont school districts (California)? Looking to buy a house there. Daughter will be starting elementary school next year. Thoughts on choosing Irvington vs American attendance area? Also open to recommendations for good school districts in other affordable Bay Area locations. Current plan is to buy a place and live there through elementary, middle and high school for minimal disruptions (but who knows what will happen in the future).

Utilization rate this time of year?

What is the range of annual stock refresher for Software Engineer II(62 level) at Microsoft, Bangalore?

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

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

2 weeks unassigned in may. Can I use PTO for those 2 weeks even if I haven’t accrued it yet? 1st year, and what are the cons of two weeks off? Like utilization. Etc

I got hired in at Staff/Assistant grade 4. What does this mean?

Hi all! Curious if any Americans here have had any experience applying for a temporary work/creative (or other non-company sponsored) visa and if creative ad work is considered eligible. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Why is the ad community in London so cliquey?

With all these redundancies happening, how can we as a community help each other? We had a thread about new job opps, but it didn’t get much traction... Shall we try again?

Pandemic induced pressure & burnout. Is every agency bad at present? Desperate to move on before it kills me but worried it’s not diff anywhere else. Hearing people are off sick in lots of agencies.
Or does anyone have positive experiences to share?

National insurance

how’s everyone feeling about this?

Quite miffed as I just got a small pay rise and now I think this plus the upcoming not rises in utilities and inflation will pretty much cancel it out.

This country is fucked lol
