Has anyone picked up a new language in order to better communicate with their customers? I have picked up a bit of Spanish and would love to be more fluent.

I know some very basic signs in sign language. I had a deaf coworker and tried to pick up on and learn what I could. It honestly hasn’t come up much, but hopefully it makes a difference for somebody one day.

Even just a few basic phrases in any language can help out a lot with customers. It’s always been on my mind to learn more, and I should start prioritizing it.

I redownloaded Duolingo to try to do this too. I took some Spanish in high school and can still pick up bits and pieces when I hear it at work, so I'm at least not starting from square one. I'm in Florida and we have a huge Hispanic population. I'm thinking being bilingual could open doors for me if I'm able to make it happen.

Very true and yes being bilingual can definitely open more doors for you

No but I have dreamed of learning a new language. I think I must lack the discipline. I Spanish and French in school but nothing really stuck.

Guys I’d appreciate your perspectives on this: how big of an asshole am I for staying in the interview process for a few interesting opportunities despite having received an offer from one of my top choices (80% chance will accept). I’m a first year recruiting for summer 2021 internships FYI.

How to negotiate at McK? Any advice for what to ask for? Current offer is much lower than what I’m being paid in big tech.

For those of you in healthcare related account management, what is your healthcare background? I am clinical and getting ready to hire a higher level account manager. I am really biased toward people with clinical/in hospital experience because, quite frankly, healthcare is a different beast - lots of hand holding and change management. I don’t want to miss the right person because of my bias, so im wondering how many healthcare related AMs have healthcare/clinical experience… thanks in advance!
