Between now and next week, would you suggest job seekers apply to openings or just focus on networking within their closest contacts?

If people see a listing they find interesting, they should definitely apply. As a general rule, apply right away, as at some point they'll stop taking applications. As far as networking goes, I don't know, if you're getting in touch to wish someone a happy holiday, that's nice. But I don't think most people really want to get into any business networking. It's been a long year and people want a break.

If roles are posted, apply for them. Always better to apply sooner than later

Apply. I’ll be using time between the holidays to review applications, I will not be responding to networking attempts.

Can someone explain me what's going on with Accenture recruitment? My joining date was 29th of this month. HR called me day before yesterday and preponed it to 26th, later today she called and saying that due to high volume of candidates, the Onboarding is freezed and so my candidature is pushed to September 5th. Is this normal?

Advice on applying to PM jobs with 1yr APM experience?

I’ve been working as an APM at my current company for 1yr, and have basically been doing the work of a full blown PM the entire time. I’ve lead several features from start to finish and made sure to mention in my resume that I have been doing everything a regular PM does. Has anyone ever hired an APM for a PM role or done it yourself? Any tips? Advice?

Has a partner ever come back and asked you why you spent so much time on certain things?

Need a sanity check here.

When I joined my current company, we were on a quarterly bonus structure with guaranteed payouts each quarter. This was, in fact, how the recruiter said he could meet my salary request.

The company just announced we are moving to annual payouts only, with no payments for 2023 until May 2024. There are no raises happening.

This amounts to 12% less money in my pocket in 2023 plus inflation.

Is this standard, or should I be looking for opportunities elsewhere?
