Has anyone here used a service like HitchSwitch to deal with changing their name after getting married? I’m sure I could figure it out myself but I just don’t have the bandwidth to right now. I would love a service that just does everything for me (including websites). I’m seeing mixed reviews about what HitchSwitch actually does...

I used HitchSwitch and loved it for the time-saving aspect of it.

Just wanted to say thank you for asking this question. I’m going through this now, do not have the bandwidth to deal with it and realize that it’s generally cumbersome and particularly delayed due to COVID. I just added a HitchSwitch gift card to my registry, so would definitely appreciate any insight here if that is not the best alternative.

I feel kinda dumb for not just figuring it out myself, but I just can’t do it on top of moving back to NYC and starting biglaw - I’m currently looking at ms to mrs as somebody recommended. I do think the HitchSwitch reviews are too mixed for me

Yes- it honestly did save a bunch of time. I actually asked for it as a gift on my registry which was super nice too.

I used hitch switch and highly recommend - super super helpful. It includes all the forms pre filled out to the extent possible, and more importantly tells you the order to do things. I did it 5 years ago and they hadn’t yet come out with the highest tier (I think that you send them a passport photo or something like that) but it was well worth the money for me

Hi everyone🙂

This is my first time posting on this app. I see here working professionals from almost all the big companies, so I would be really grateful if someone could help in switching from my current company.
I joined SoftwareONE as a fresher and it has been 2.4 years working here. I would be suitable for profiles like procurement Specialist, vendor management, customer portfolio management, operations and end to end customer account management (i.e. from RFQs to invoicing)

Thank you

Associates, how did you balance your morning sickness and fatigue in early pregnancy with work? Thankfully I’m still WFH, but worried about receiving insane turnarounds that require me to stay up late/all night and the effect it might have on the baby. I’m past my hours for the year and feel like I should be able to say no, but the team I’m on has a tendency to push past no’s.
