Did anyone here apply for Canadian citizenship last year? Curious to hear how the progress on your application has been, specifically the time duration, i.e., when did you receive the AOR letter and how long after that did you receive the invite for the test and then oath ceremony? Any applicants still waiting? I understand that processing times are longer than usual due to Covid and might vary on a case to case basis, but just want to get a sense of the average processing time.

Doe's anyone else miss Covid pay👀🤷🏾‍♂️

Echo and nuclear leaders and techs: is your facility 1) requiring COVID testing before exercise stress testing, 2) wear N95 and PPE, or 3) both testing and PPE?
Our clinic is removing the cost barrier of testing but staff are worried about risks since echo rooms don’t have HEPA or negative pressure systems and patients are allowed to remove their masks while running and breathing heavy during image acquisition.
Have you had good / bad experience with lack of Covid testing before stresses?

Sooooo, haven’t slept all night... was told a Co-worker has tested positive for COVID-19! You would think they would have quarantined the building for at least two weeks, but instead we attended a staff meeting with people who could have been exposed! “Get tested if you want to, no need to quarantine?????” Praying to GOD I’ll be spared!!!

Per the job boards, I feel like Hundred has been looking for a CD for months. I’m sure a handful of great candidates have applied (thanks COVID). So, what’s really their issue?

Are people including information on COVID protocols on their wedding websites for Summer/Fall 2022 weddings? I’m getting married Sept 2022 and I’m unsure whether to put a note about COVID on our website since it’s still so far out. Are others including info about potential protocols? If so, would you mind sharing what you have on your website (or whatever other kind of information source you’re using for your guests)? Thank you!

What did your agency’s processes look like before covid? What part of the process did you find to be absolute gold, the game changer, the thing that made it work and work so well?
And what part of the process was it that failed the most and why? How you navigate around the pitfalls of the process?
And how have your processes changed (for the better or worse) during Covid?

Anyone willing to do a meet up? I’m visiting Seattle next week and thinking about moving there. I understand it’s covid, but if anyone is open, I’d love to have a chat. Beers on me!

My manager has always been one to micromanage. For the past two years I've been experiencing bad anxiety attacks brought on by the COVID pandemic, however with the recent developments in Ukraine and Russia, my anxiety has been through the roof. Logistics is hard enough, but now it's even worse, because not only am I struggling with my manager and the shortages/delays of merch, but now I'm also dealing with my mental health. For anyone who travels a lot for work, what advice would you have?

So I just had 2 tables fight in a restaurant. Table A coughed and table B said oh covid and laughed. Happens that table A is Asian and table B is white.
Table A assumed the joke is because they are Asian and table B says no, everyone got covid not just Asians it’s just a bad joke; who is right?
Table A escalated to a fight and had to be both separated and asked to leave. Who is right?

I’m a business/commercial lawyer with 8 years experience looking to relocate to Chicago from NYC area, while also trying to make the jump to in-house after only ever working at a boutique firm. It’s been 5 months and I haven’t had any luck applying to job postings on the usual sites (no calls, no interviews, nothing). I can’t tell if this is due to covid, the market, the fact that I don’t have any in-house experience, the fact that I live out of state, or something else entirely. Any insights??

Working on my masters in finance. Would love to network either for future capital markets relationships or fellow finance people who want to grab drinks after covid.

Hi All,

Is there any policy that will Ban us from joining TCS after accepting the initial offer and declining it on a later date?
Also how much percent more will TCS give as a counter offer. The other offer that i have is 30% more than TCS offer.

I have got into a project a couple of months back yet no work has been assigned to me. I am not sure if this is normal in TCS. Kindly let me know. The project I was in before had a lot of work that was assigned to me. Now this stark difference is affecting me. Not sure when I will be working properly.

In TCS, for onboarding they provided contact person email addresses. But non of them do reply. What is reason ? How would I handle this?

Thanks in advance

Folks, very new to the EE process. Most recent draw cutoff was 75 points but there are still folks with higher scores in the pool. Does that mean candidates are picked based on time in the pool? A CRS100 could be picked over a CRS300 if the CRS100 has been in longer?
