I personally thing a lot of finance is going to be digital in the future. I’m in tech so I’m biased....but I’d go with tech.

Depends on your desired career path. The former is much easier to sell as strategy/organizational work, so BizOps roles, strategy consulting, Business Development, operations, etc are more realistic options. Tech I am not as familiar with so I won't embarrass myself.

Tech consulting at B4 seems to mean different things, but specializing in an ERP doesn't really help with the positions I outlined

Can you get in legal trouble for putting an early version of a produced script in your portfolio?

am currently working as a project structural engineer in London and feel like structural engineering is a dead end job. I have spoken with engineers with 10years+ of experience and their salary is just over 50k.

Do any of you guys in the construction industry or any other engineering industry have any advice? I'm considering either switching to machine learning engineering or becoming a project manager. My degree feels so useless.

Hi Team,

TCS has released the offer letter for me & my doj is on 30th Jan which I chose. My current employer is ready to release me early and my lwd is 30th November.

I am confused whether I should join on 30th Jan or I should talk to HR for early joining. Also, there are rumours that Indian MNCs are cancelling offer letters due to recession and hence I am scared as I don't have any other offer in hand

What's the truth 🤔

I am under qualified for a job that I KNOW I can do. They’ve asked for a certain number of years of experience and I don’t have it. However, I do have some experience in the exact requirements for the role. What can I do to position myself to get an interview from my resume alone? Should I add a cover letter? What should I include? I have 2-3 YOE, but they’re asking for 5.
