Thanks for sharing your experiences. Someone recommended for me Robert Half, a recruitment company and said they got their job through them. That's why i was asking

Robert Half was horrible in my experience. Drove 3 hours round trip for an interview for a job that wasn’t even available.

My recruiter said she is waiting for one interviewer's feedback and he has been OOO for 3 weeks, therefore, she cannot share anything now. Does this mean that by now I have mixed feedback and she is relying on the last feedback before sending it to HC?

Does anyone else feel like they are becoming less confident as they get more senior? When I was right out of my clerkship I felt really confident because I have good research and writing skills; but I feel like I don’t have spectacular judgment when it comes to making all sorts of less studied decisions and it makes me feel incredibly nervous and not confident. I figured I’d get more confidence as the years went by, but I feel like I trust myself and my abilities less.

Hi everyone,

I am running into quite similar issues in almost all of the companies I have worked so far: Most of the senior engineers just exclude me in the important technical meetings whereas I am doing an important part (technical) of a project. They either think I am not knowledgeable enough for a particular task or just that I am good at doing some non-technical/manual task. I am the only female in the technical team and how do I address this issue & to whom? Thanks in advance!
