Does an address change affect your field office? Moved from Connecticut to Seattle and filed address change last year. Wondering whether that’s why GC is taking forever. PD is Feb 2020 and Case ID starts with SRC… though case was transferred to NBC months ago. Anyone know field office implications and is there a way to find out?

Yes it does. Places where lot of IT companies reside are extremely slow when it comes to GC interview appointments like SFO where I have seen 24 months of wait after EAD and Final action date current. Is your PD current?

ZIP code for your home.

It’s the Texas service center rather than moving to Seattle that’s causing the delay. Address changes now have a minimal impact since GC approvals are coming from service centers instead of field offices

How did you all get into the DEI space professionally? I’m doing a lot of work internally at my firm and spent a lot of time in my masters program focusing on DEI and want to do DEI work full time. Looking for any guidance in making the transition from traditional consulting.

I’m 27 & going to go to back to college for my bachelors. I have worked in the legal field for about 8 years & I’m burnt out. After a lot of research an thought I am leaning towards either architecture or interior design. I wanted to ask some advice from anyone working as an architect or interior designer. How do you feel about the field? What are the stress levels like? Do you enjoy it? Are you working at firm or are you working independently? Any info helps! Thanks 😊

Summer intern at BCG. I've been told by a few people that you need to spend your first few cases "earning your stripes" to gain staffing optionality or be servile/loyal to a pyramid to gain access to the cooler case work within that PA. It's seemed particularly emphasized at times.

Is this the standard at McK? I'm trying to guage the staffing optionality and openness of McKinsey culture to direct your random walk.

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
