Hi everybody ! I’ve been working in Dubai for the past 6 months as a Marketing Manager in a Web 3 firm. Coming back to the US due to visa status, I’m looking for a similar position in the Crypto Industry. Due to the very technical nature of the industry and market sentiment, there are only software engineers being hired and no marketing :/ any recommendations to go into those technical Industries as a marketer ?

Hi Everyone,

Need some inputs before making an important decision.
I have offer from Cognizant and they are promising that next quarter they will initiate my Canada visa. They are giving assurance when I spoke to them over call. Also, my current employer Accenture is also saying the same to retain me. Can I believe Cognizant? Also, Canada onsite is best in which company - Accenture or Cognizant. Please suggest based on your experience.

Thanks in advance!

I just returned to bangalore last week via train. There I met one guy who was shifting to bangalore for the first time due to his job(Infosys). We talked for sometime. There he asked if its okay to keep his luggage for some time if situation arises as such. I thought the guy is new so I agreed to it and gave him his number.
Now after a week he calls me and says he wants to live at my apartment as his 14 day accomodation is getting over. I am a bit uncomfortable for this as he is a stranger.
