Do directors/production companies ask you who the creatives are on a project before they decide to bid?

Starting off as a Project Manager for Analytics/Data Science projects after a Masters in Analytics. I was hoping to work as a Data Analyst though, with more focus on tech skills. Anyway- if in future I want to be moving into more tech focused roles, what should my path look like? I am quite good with Sql and Python, fairly decent with ML, so is Data Eng a viable option?

Can I sign 1096 for my client? Any means to work around the pre-print red form, like Docusign etc? Client is out of country, we are mailing the completed 1096/1099 to client for signature, and she sends it back to our office, then we paperfile the package. Too much trouble for such a simple form.

Downtime during Project Lifecycles.

We all know that when projects are planned and resourced properly/efficiently, the team knows exactly what they’re doing and the clients don’t scope creep, there will be periods of downtime for PMs. This is usually a good thing because that means a project is moving smoothly.

Also a bad thing because most of us PMs can’t sit still because we’re doers by nature. During these periods, how do you typically fill up your day to keep busy?

🤖 Where is TCS HR ?

I observed No involvement of HR in screening call & scheduling technical interview

Is it common with TCS process ?

#1 Got 1st call from project manager (instead of hr) and he is interested to know compensation part.

#2 Got 2nd call for technical interview without scheduling interview.

I was uncomfortable as in 1st call to discuss compensation with project manager ( no authentication, is he really manager).

On the spot technical interview 😁

Input please

I'm on a long term project (likely to continue on in perpetuity) and the relationship among team members is getting kind of crazy. A lot of stress seems to be building up among partners. I'm the senior associate assisting in the management of all workflows. My tasks are complete and accurately executed, but things are getting super toxic lately. Has anyone successfully disarmed a bomb like this? It's getting a bit wild and my next move is to try lateraling if this toxicity keeps increasing.

Any of the sisters deal with gestational diabetes but already had a restrictive diet pre and during pregnancy?
Doctor says I have it, but I honestly don’t believe them. I don’t eat cane sugar (not even in sauces), gluten, dairy, or soy. So not surprised I couldn’t process their drink-I don’t consume stuff like that regularly. I walk a mile or do HIIT training 5x/ week. The condition doesn’t run in my family (and my mom has 4 sisters w/kids-good sample size) (cont’d in comments)

My doc sent me the wrong prescription this month (20 mg IR, which was my old prescription, instead of 30 mg XR). I forgot how bad the IR headaches and crash were…

I have the opportunity to act as outside counsel for a new construction company (commercial project management). I’ve been practicing for 4 years and have experience in small business law, none in construction. I am hesitant to take this on, and cannot tell if it is just new lawyer jitters or common sense. PC knows I have not worked in construction law, but has worked with me previously and trusts me for the job.

Would love advice!

I'm glad people can order things online and get them the next day; but it makes my job harder because a lot of the people in my company don't see that we just don't have the infrastructure for that kind of operation, so they need to order it BEFORE they need it the next day

I start my new job, tomorrow, as the “Client Relationship Leader” of a very large design fabrication company. I will have to abandon my Mac/Adobe creative suite upbringing and learn the PC platform for Corel (🤮), sketchup and some other 3D software. Normally and historically, this would be a deal breaker- as these programs run fine on a Mac- has anyone had to switch and how what we’re the biggest hurdles? I get on a PC and get so frustrated not being able to do what I want to do.
