It's rare we get chances to work on multiple but if someone gets then it would be very good...

Thnx for ur comment.

From my past experience, the more projects you work on (and the more they're different from each other), the better your learning will be.
Also, for a QA, they usually ask atleast two- three types of testing (functional, api, etl, automation, etc. Only performance and security testing are considered separately). I do understand that you need to build your expertise in one of these, but if you're dedicated enough, you can show that you have worked in different kinds of testing when you give interviews (you will also have multiple options, since you can interview for jobs of any kind of testing you want once you are well versed). Work for a project for around a year, learn well, move on to another.

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!

Hi everyone, need some advice.
A local b d / ria has an opening for an Advisor. We provide the leads in the form of current abandoned brokerage clients and the advisor just needs to build relationships and grow the business.
In addition he/she would have the opportunity to build and lead a team of other advisors.
For a candidate with 12+ years of experience what would be an appropriate compensation structure (base plus commission %)
Thank you in advance for your help.
