Send your resume to someone on thumptack they will give you good feedback. You can choose to buy their services if you like what they have yo say.

Try chatgpt, it’s what I did and it was way better than my own wording.

Don’t waste money on a PM degree. Utterly useless, just study for the PMP exam and take it. That’s all you need.

Do you have advice on how to interview better with Amazon?

My résumé and portfolio are great, and I’ve been asked to interview with Amazon for 4 different teams now.

I have been invited for a new interview today with another team, and I am hoping 4th time is the charm. Any tips on how to do better next time?

Random, but valid/persistent thought.

How can I get over this feeling? I'm over the whole "stand in the line of fire to prove how good I am" bs. Any recommendations for getting over this or possible industries to pivot into to avoid bs interview processes and ghosting?

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
