Seeking freelance or staff producers interested in being a panelist. Kindly DM. Thank you!

IEP, 504, and those without internet will return in-person next week while rest of students remain remote. Regular Ed teachers may have students (mild Learning Disabled kiddos) in their room while teaching. They are saying it’s a liability issue if they have one student in the room with them, even though teaching other via Zoom. Thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this?

What’s the dress code for zoom interviews? So far, I’ve definitely been dressed more formally than my interviewers but could be because they were tech companies

Just me here hoping that slack never adds the “read” notification on messages.

Who wants to learn semiconductor industry or chip shortage?

I like how this app wants us to market ourselves for likes in order to get started on networking!

5YOE+MS+MBA begging for likes!
HELP please! In return I can have a group zoom session on semiconductors

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

So we hired our own doctor to be on a firm wide WebEx about how COVID is ok. When pushed on whether the Dr would travel, he says “No.” LOL @ the idiocy of my firm.

I am the partner leading our local office lgbt group. What should I be doing to engage more with our people during this time? Zoom once a month only goes so far I think but I have run out of other ideas.

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available. Should I have waited until one of the last slots so I was fresher on their mind when choosing a candidate? I am just sitting here stressing out until I here something. Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Anyone looking to do a case prep this weekend via Skype / phone?

Has anyone gone through the Breeze Airways panel to interview? Can you give me some insight? Is it a panel of several interviewers asking me questions OR several candidates being interviewed at the same time? It's being held on Microsoft teams but they have been very vague about the specifics. @breeze airways

So glad these restocked

Any referal for UK - Data warehousing or Data Management space or Data Modeling?

Enhanced maternity pay at EY - how long do you have to be employed until you can qualify for the enhanced pay? I believe it's 50% for 9 months, happy to be corrected

Thoughts on RX Bar's brand? Personally, I thought it was novel at first as a way of getting the brand to stand out, but now I think it's revealed itself to be BS. Wld like to know what others think.

Feeling grateful today. 🥺

Anyone work for ring central? How do you like it? What’s the culture like?

Hi everyone! I’m staring in an AE position to book demos with restaurants for their POS systems. How to prospect / have conversations and close the demos with them? I’m new to AE, used to be an interning SDR. Looking for tips and advice more towards the conversation factor. Thank you

I’m in my 2nd year in audit. I want to pivot into management consulting within a big 4 or MBB. Has anyone seen someone make this lateral movement? I’m not sure how feasible that is and what steps to take. I’m also down to discuss further with whoever is comfortable in connecting.

Does JP Morgan email the initial offer after final interview or does the recruiter call?

Hey y’all, I need backpack or tote bag suggestions that won’t break the bank

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?

Just curious: What’s your typical reaction to lawyer jokes (from non-lawyers)?

For those of you required to be in office- do people use the phone and email to contact you or do they still come by in person? People in my office seem not to understand how the phone works...

Interviewing with Cordell & Cordell next week for a SouthEastern associate position. Any tips? Things I should know about the firm/position? Things to avoid?

If you could ask for anything at your firm what would you ask for? (Something realistic but a stretch)

Billables are low this month. Like I have 65 billable hours in so far. I’ve messaged partners over the last week to try and get more cases but there are tons of new associates who were just onboarded and were at a low point for business. I’m freaking out

How many bonuses come around in a year at the average law firm? Number of occurrences more importantly, but y’all can provide amount too if you like

When lateraling to another defense firm, is it necessary to show billable hours at current firm?

As things start to open up fully, some of my institutional clients are sending notices that we are expected to do X activity over zoom from here on out (things we used to do in person). Clearly it’s a cost cutting measure. Anyone else feel like filing for telephonic appearance so the insurance company can save a buck isn’t going to sit well with judges who prefer in person attendance? I hope they deny all of them so my billables don’t suffer. Less travel = more desk bs I have to do to hit quota

Insight on Venable?

Noob plaintif-side L&E lawyer here—how long should I wait for defense counsel to stall on a demand letter before I start getting ready to file?

Firm announced flexible come and go as you see fit approach to coming back to office. Partner I work for said I need to be in office 4-5 days a week anyway. Thoughts?

Former biglaw first-years now in government: Do juniors in government get more autonomy than those in biglaw? Or is the review process for juniors' work at least more efficient/streamlined (i.e. reviewed by one mid-level and one senior, instead of four mid-levels, two seniors, and two partners)?

Work is an emotional rollercoaster - change my mind.

Workout before (4:30 am) or after (6:30ish) work?

Anyone want to give me retroactive FOMO by sharing stories from their summer associate programs? Mine is entirely virtual, and needless to say we are less than enthused by what we’re missing out on

Does your firm give you credit for hours that were written off? Sometimes I feel if you don’t lose anything for hours cut from the bill, you have incentives not to be 100% honest w/ your timesheet.

Struggling with this whole work life balance thing. Is it possible to have a semblance of a life/hobbies? If so, how? Most of my socializing is honestly in the microcosm of the firm (drink nights etc)
