Has anyone ever dealt with a flirty client? Pretty sure he's made a pass at me a couple of times but I can't quiet tell cause he seems to be a flirtatious person in general. Just don't want to jump the gun but also don't want him to think I'm okay with it.

Just don't mind him. Let him flirt if he wants but strictly no touching. It's hard to jump into conclusion because as what you said, he seems to be a flirtatious person in general.

Agreed, and I personally have encountered this and stayed quiet. As long as it's not crossing blatant boundaries, whatever.

That's the most uncomfortable situation ever. I would remind him once that "this is a professional relationship" if he does or says something that you feel is directed toward you. If he isn't respectful of that, then bring a coworker in for the next meeting. He'll get the hint. You shouldn't feel unsafe or nervous having to work with the guy. It's not good for you & it's also not going to be good for him because you'll inevitably be distracted & on high alert.

Oh, yes I do. I have a client who keeps on sending messages outside of our case. I try to keep our relationship as professional as possible. Just respond to him whenever it's necessary and don't stress yourself about it. Not worth it.

Yes I have totally dealt with it many many times. I honestly just ignore it and change the subject. If it gets to a really uncomfortable situation you may need to say something but most the time if you ignore it they will stop lol.

Hi all, How do you deal with having a good relationship with an ex-colleague, and then that person switches jobs, becomes a hiring manager, is hiring for a position you’re perfect for (experience + credentials) and then you reach out to them saying you’re interested and why it would be a good idea - and then they completely ghost you..I also sent an application via the website and got rejected. I am really always trying to help out old coworkwrs with getting jobs, but this is just frustrating 🥲

Hello Guys,

I have 8 years of experience with more than 4 years in the current organization. Current package is 9.5 LPA. I have offers with Accenture (14L fixed and 4L variable) and CTS (15.5L fixed and 70k variable) both having more than 75% hike.
In my current organization, I see a scope for onsite assignment (not 100% confirmed though). I am confused of which one to choose - Wheather to stay back or switch to which company.

Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks
