Hi Fishes,

I have 3 YOE, got offered 10.5 LPA in pwc. I had asked for a higher package as I have a counter offer of 12 LPA, the HR came up with some logic of variables, performance pay etc and gave me the offer. I have been offered a role in Data Analytics dept ( SAP tech stack).

I have another offer from msg of 13 LPA, could you help me what should I choose. I have pwc in my mind just because it's a big 4 and I'm looking for such exposure.

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director l, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.

Anyone here hiring for an SDET/QA Engineer?

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)

TIA ♥️

Hi all! I was thinking about changing industries. I am currently an underwriter for for-hire transportation with 7.5 YOE. Wondering what others have found to be transferable skills or if anyone has made a career change (even just changing departments or lines of business). Any info or suggestions appreciated!!

Would anyone who has worked in the following positions mind sharing their experience? Software developer, data engineer or UX designer/researcher. I am currently thinking about going through with a career change but I'm not entirely sure on what to do.

Anyone here with an interview experience at Amazon? I had the full-day virtual last round last week - the recruiter emailed with a suggested time *2 days from now* to “follow up with me on the results”. Does this mean it’s a no? Is this ridiculous process normal?

I keep hearing this is a job seeker's market but even with 10+ yrs project mgt experience, certs & great references/reccos, I get no traction for roles more senior than 'Project Manager'.

Anyone else having similar challenges and/or any advice? TIA!

I'm considering pivoting to copywriting because that's the part of my role I'm best at -- a lot of the account management stuff is draining, but I can whip out social and marketing copy quickly & I enjoy it. Wondering if anyone has insight / leads on making the jump from accounts to the copy side when applying for jobs? 5 YOE, 3 in-agency with a mix of automotive and pharma + a side gig as a published author with muliple books (hoping that'll help on the creative / copy end?) Thank you!

How do you deal with the office pettiness when people find out you’re leaving? I resigned from my agency last week. Not bc I was unhappy or anything, an opportunity literally fell in my lap and it was too good to pass up. Ppl are starting to learn that I am leaving and already being weird and stand-off ish. I’m here thru the beginning of September…. 🙄

Hi everyone, currently on the job hunt and I’ve had several recruiting firms reach out. Does anyone have experience with LanceSoft Inc? They’ve reached out to me with a promising role but online reviews claim this to be an illegitimate company. However these reviews were very specific to the individual’s circumstance—not sufficient in representing a whole firm, in my opinion. Any thoughts?

Can’t decide on a job offer. Currently employed and have been wanting to do something different. The other job offer is pretty much what I make now but I’d be losing on a lot of PTO. I kind of feel really confused about what to do. The hiring manager actually picked up on the fact that I don’t sound super excited for the job. But I feel like this is my chance to leave and do something different but I’m hung up on barely any PTO and swapping to a complete different industry.

Fishes, any suggestions as to how to move into the VC role with a non-finance background (PS - exp. of working in founders office of a startup, management consulting in past and do understand corp. finance, financial statement analysis etc.)
