Hi Fishes,

Can anyone recommend an agency for fast tracked degree legalisation/attestation services?

I am using BVS Global, but 5 weeks into the process, we are still in the first step, and they are unable to articulate a path to completion.

Thanks in advance

Not long ago i got quotes from different agencies in Dubai to attest my degree. Ended up going with 'Benchmark attestation services'. They were the fastest and cheapest, and they delivered the document for free when it was done.

Thanks @C1. How long did yours take?

What’s the country your degree is from?

Ah sorry- can’t help

Doing the same with them, they are the worse indeed

Yeah doing though company so went with them but I’m far from impressed - that said I’m also far from impressed from anything that is not automatically done in UAE 😂

If you want something done right, do it yourself.
French degree -> it took less than 3 hours of my time over 10 days
(1) make a copy and certify it with any local authority
(2) send it to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for legalization, with a prepaid envelope to the address where you want to receive it back
(3). Stamp the legalized document at the UAE embassy in France - on-site

Copywriter with serious imposter syndrome at new job! How do senior writers up their game? Was in-house 1.5 years and underpaid in NYC. With only previous freelance experience (and nonprofit and grant writing before that) figured I had to slog through it for years. Cut to now, 6 months into a new copywriting role at huge tech company. My salary almost quintupled overnight. I think I’m doing great, but that depends on the day and who I work with (no other writers by the way).

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

Or should I move into the JS-React path since there seems to be a lot of demand? But my worry is about my lack of actual work experience
