How do u even get in

recruiter for a contracting agency cold DM’d me on LinkedIn. it semed a lil sketchy at first but I thought I’d just give it a shot. did the interview and got a 5 month contract role

What kind of agencies and accounts were you on that set you up for this? Did they get you awards and an amazing book?

I’ve worked on tech brands before which probably gave me a leg up but I have zero awards and a very meh book. I think interviewing well and having evidence and numbers of success (which I stretched the truth on) is what really got me in. They want someone sold in on their culture and values cause they’re all like cults tbh

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co.

I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?

My dilemma… I am an injury adjuster at a carrier experiencing high inventory that’s barely manageable. A competitor offered a higher salary and manageable workload. BUT, I would like to get into underwriting. I applied for UW position w/ a different carrier and they’ve made an offer. It’s lower than my current salary and significantly lower than what I’d make by taking the first offer. Do I take the high salary and stay in claims or go for UW in hopes it will be best in long run?

Hi all,
I have 3.9 years of experience in tcs. Last year i was selected in DCA exam and started receiving elevated incentives. This year i was wrongly given C band and because of that my incentives are now paused. But the thing is my compensation letter still says my ctc is 8lpa. But in my salary slips I'm not receiving according to ctc. Currently I'm serving notice period and told the other company that my ctc is 8lpa. Will there be any issue on bgv when i join next company?
