Has anyone taken the Comms or Media Cloud AP?

Interviewed today and haven’t talked about salary expectations (ops). Interviewer mentioned that a lot of people have joined them from top companies (FANNG and MBB) for less money because of they believe in the mission. Coming from ZS I’m hoping it’ll still be a bit of a jump 😕

What is sales engineering? And how does one get into it?

Anyone in early stage biotech? I’m looking at a BD role for a well financed (~$150M runway) startup with some preclinical programs and a unique development platform. What are some key risks to consider when taking roles like this? I’m overly excited and want to make sure I’m asking the right questions before committing myself to this.

I know this question is somewhat vague and broad but I’ll soon be joining a Banking & Finance team (in BigLaw) as a junior associate. I’d be grateful for any tips on how to thrive in this role. What characteristics make a good junior transactional lawyer?

For the people who earned the SHRM-CP, did you feel it was worth it? I have an indirect HR position, been applying for more HR focused positions and wondering if this would help. I got the CAPM (certified associate of project management) in December, but that hasn’t really changed things. Would love some opinions before working on another certification!

Best books on leadership and self development?

Anyone who laterally transitioned from T2 strategy to MBB, are you glad that you transitioned or regret it? Why?

Is there anyone who works for Google or Amazon and has a healthcare background with no tech skills? I have my MBA with a healthcare concentration and I’m looking to switch industries. I’ve started to take certification courses on Udemy but would love any insight on how I could get my foot in the door with those companies. Thank you!!

Any advice or thoughts on the experience required to get hired at Salesforce as a Solution Engineer vs Sr Solution Engineer?

Yoe: 3
Experience type: Functional Consultant

Hi! I have 2.5 years consulting experience & 4 years industry (B2B Sales) experience. What level should I be targeting for in cloud S&O. Is IC-5 too junior?

Is it wise to switch from testing background to Salesforce after 10 years of IT experience? If so should I start as an admin?

Hi everyone. I'm pretty early in my career (just over 1 YOE) & not really enjoying my current role as a Consultant/Developer because of the type of projects I get combined with some mobility issues. However, I'm really interested in technical program management or project management and I'm looking for any advice on how to get there bc I've been applying, but can't even seem to get a call back.

(Also would really appreciate some likes on this post to get my 11 likes out of the way 😀)

Everyone complains about high healthcare costs in the US. I understand that it’s a complex problem including drug prices, insurances etc. But no one talks about the high physician salaries. Why do surgeons make near a million in the US while they make $250K in Canada?

I have a boneheaded question I’m pretty sure I know the answer to. My partner can’t use my Hilton Honors account for an upcoming stay he is going to book, right? He doesn’t need my discount or anything - was just hoping that he could get my diamond benefits.

New wage code...what is in it for us?

What would you do in this situation? I signed a schedule A for one weeks work at Company A for $600 per day and then company B offered me 2 weeks work at $800 per day.

Why companies don’t even consider candidates with OPT? :( I feel they really don’t even look at my candidate profile when they read I will require sponsorship in the future.
As a data analyst I have a STEM OPT that allows me to work here in the US for up to 3 years (a lot of time to prove myself or even pivot my career and change of company for them not to worry about sponsoring me) but still I feel they don’t care. MOST companies, I should say.

Anyone here works at Brillio? How good is the company for opportunities?

There's a lot a chatter (not Chatter) in this bowl over the last year about consultants joining Salesforce. What about the other way around - consultants leaving Salesforce or plotting their exit? We know you're out there....

Any recommendations for learning Mulesoft? I used it a bit a few years ago, but I don't remember much. How much has it changed since being bought by SF?

Can anyone speak to the culture of the Salesforce practice at Slalom? Mostly curious about work life balance / average hours per week

Salesforce pros- hit me me up for a referral. Happy to chat through roles and guide you through the interview too.

Pre-requisites for Application Architect and B2B Solution Architect are exactly same, so what’s the difference between the two? Or am I missing something?🤔

Applied for a role with Salesforce and had both a talent advisor and corporate recruiter reach out to schedule time to talk about the role. Is this normal for the recruiting process for two different people to reach out to schedule time? Is one more senior than the other/different approach?

Looking for senior Salesforce developers/architects in the US! Joined my previous mentor in starting a new Salesforce practice. Company is based in SF but we’re ok with folks working remotely. Might require some travel once it’s safe again but not anytime soon. Good opportunity to be actively involved in building something from nothing

I am an IT architect with 10 years of experience specifically in Salesforce products. I am thinking of moving from a strategy consulting role to an architecture role in Salesforce (company) itself. I have experience building tech strategies and also technical project delivery.

Wondering if it makes sense to apply for an Enterprise Architect (pre-sales) or a Senior Technical Architect role??

Also in terms of seniority and salary are these roles any different?

Would you take a little bit of a pay-cut to take a job you want and to get out of a job that you hate?
