Best rewards/cashback credit card for post-MBA consultant? Know it’s been asked but with so many mergers (Marriott) and policy changes (reduced Reserve lounge access) thought I’d ask. Thanks

Dude why is the fact that you’re post MBA relevant at all? Like what in your brain triggers you to tell everyone you’ve completed your MBA when you’re asking about what rewards credit card to use? Do CC companies look at your GMAT to determine if they’ll approve you?

I think it indicates likely spend/limits - I’m running a lot more expenses than when I first started in the industry and want to maximize my benefit.

Hi all! To qualify for an L1A visa, do you have to be a senior manager / executive level or does it work as long as you’re a manager? I just moved out of the US because the H1b lottery didn’t work out for me, and I’m thinking rather than spending 1 or 2 years in my home country and go back as a senior, I’d much rather work here a bit longer, get that manager title, wait a year, and then go back as I think that would be the fastest route to green card..? Any thoughts/advice? I’m from 🇰🇷 :) TYI!!

I just have a lot of students with special needs who would benefit from music therapy. I have done extra classes for them where we do stuff that I've picked up from others, but I want the certification.

Hi Fishes ,
I got an opportunity from Axtria as a Senior Associate/ Lead - BIM. BIM is one of the Axtria's business vertical.

I've cleared all rounds of interviews including final HR round and salary discussion and at last HR told me that he will get back to me with next steps. It's been over a week, I did not get any response. I have called HR and he said he is checking with internal team and getback to me.

Anyone from Axtria or past employees have any idea for this kind of situation?
