Happy Sunday to all the women in consulting out there! Hope your preparation for Monday is going strong! Me? I'm having champagne at home while building a deck - because why not.

Happy Sunday ladies!
Loving the idea of deck and champagne! As for me, I'm catching on practice updates and research while getting a pedicure - because why not.

I’m hitting the gym before I fly this afternoon. Love that Sunday travel life for clients! Your champagne sounds lovely. ❤️

I’m networking tonight at a philanthropy dinner. Getting all dressed up, having fun and making a difference in youth at risk, and maybe I’ll find a husband too

Hi Folks,

I was employed at LTI during july 2021 to Aug 2021 (2 months). Due to some personal reason I have resigned from LTI and joined some other organization. If there any possible to join LTI again? Please someone advise.

I got through all the rounds of interviews (including 2 technical panels) at CrowdStrike before being assured that I was nearing the end of the process and was expected to receive an offer soon… almost two weeks ago now? Anyone else experienced this kind of delay from CS or similarly sized organizations? Did I get ghosted? Anything more I should be doing?

I am hesitating to take lead role. But for my experience (8 YOE) I will have to take up that role at least in my next switch.

Could you please suggest me how can I come out of this fear. I am afraid of taking lead role because of below things.

1. Taking ownership for entire team deliverables.
2. Had to attend every requirement call and as well as technical review calls. (When BA is not good, need to provide acceptance criteria points).
3. Providing and justifying resource/work estimates.

I’m struggling on how to effectively coach a designer on my team who is a low performer. I’ve been working with them for two years.. but have not seen the growth needed to succeed in this industry. They’re slow, lack creative innovation, and have a hard time designing strategically (designs don’t make sense even from a functionality standpoint).

I’ve tried everything I can think of.. but at this point, account teams would rather request working with interns over this person.

Any advice?
