Does your company pay for Gartner membership, and other textbooks/resources?

I’m a certified Health Coach (my training/courses are CCE-accredited by the International Coach Federation) w/ a BS in Psychology. I got a temp to hire starting at $18/hr. It is my first professional health coach job & they did not require temps to have a coaching certification, but I have one. I’d like to know if temps could negotiate salary when given the job offer. The position is remote & I’d like $20/hr. I’ve invested in myself as a coach & plan to complete board certification by early 2023

What’s the brand value (SME) of holding an CDPSE cert (Certified Data Privacy Solution Engineer, ISACA)?

If your goal is to be as high ranking of an in house counsel position as possible, how would you structure your career progression? Is it better to stay in big law as long as possible and then transition as a partner, or is it more valuable to get relevant experience by going in house as a mid level/senior associate? Practice area is IP: working in patent pros, litigation, and tech transactional to varying degrees if that affects the answer.

I am interviewing for a paralegal/legal assistant position and coming from the insurance underwriting field. Any tips or suggestions of topics/products/etc to research/be aware of going into the interview?

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.

More are in pipeline from KPMG GS, TechM, Accenture.

But one peculiar thing is happening. I have appeared for 4 Cognizant interviews but in all I have been rejected. Whereas most of my friends had easily cleared Cognizant. I am switching tech, so I am a bit concerned like whether my knowledge is too shallow😐

Is it sign of an Imposter Syndrome 🥺

Pls help🙏🏾

My wife’s been on Lexapro for a year. She seems to have become almost robotic, cold, not like she was before. She needs it for anxiety and that’s a lot better, but I don’t see as much emotion in her. Has anyone else experienced this?

The Atlantic:

McKinsey, which didn’t hire its first Harvard M.B.A. until 1953, retained a diffident & traditional ethos—requiring its consultants to wear fedoras until President Kennedy stopped...

I wish I could wear one of Arya Stark's many faces to see what projects are in the pipeline.

Started my morning with the worst spin class I've ever had. Passive aggressive move to leave before it ended to not have to talk to the instructor. It was a cringe worthy class.

Question from a newbie consultant - What are some good online courses/ books to improve consulting skills?
