For those of you who have homeschooled or are currently homeschooling: what made you choose it? And for those who haven’t, is it something you’ve ever considered?

I’d love to hear your thoughts on what you see as the biggest benefits, the hardest parts, or what you wish more people understood about homeschooling.

I homeschooling my daughter for 1 year, but decided it was best for both of us to put her back in school. However, if I had a school-aged child now, I would definitely homeschooling or find a good private school. If I was homeschooling, though I would most certainly connect with a good co-op.

If I could go back in time, I would try homeschooling with my kids. I would definitely join a homeschooling group and give my kids opportunities to learn and get involved in the community. I am disappointed in their educational experiences. My son already graduated and my daughter is a junior this year. Too late now to try homeschool, but I do think it can be great if it is done well!

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?

I gave interview in Amazon and cleared all the rounds , then went on hold and still on hold due to hiring freeze in that departement. HR does respond and update me when reached out.

Interesting thing which happened here is iam cracking each every product based interviews now after my tough preparation for Amazon and getting higher packages than what Amazon would give. So whatever happens , happens for good. Cheers Amazon

For those of you in healthcare related account management, what is your healthcare background? I am clinical and getting ready to hire a higher level account manager.

I don’t want to miss the right person because of my bias, so im wondering how many healthcare related AMs have healthcare/clinical experience… thanks in advance!
