Hey Fishes, I’m in one of those situations where it’s easy to give someone else advice, but now that I’m in it, it feels very isolating: I’m a few days into a new assignment, staff augmentation role in Internal Audit at a large consumer bank. The client team pretty much expects me to hit the ground running, but I’ve never authored an IA workpaper on my own before. I feel like i’ve been oversold and I’m floundering here. What are some next steps I can take to wrangle this thing

Hi all, negotiating with HR on salary for a new AS position and want to know what’s fair. I was an AE for two years, took a promotion at another agency for SAE for only 8 months and am now being recruited for AS at 80k.

Economy is shrinking folks - just got my IBD interview cancelled due to hiring needs “changing”… I will continue to prepare and be ready for the next opportunity.

I interviewed with a company last week and the interviewer said he would submit my notes to the hiring manager and I would hear back this Monday from HR on next steps/if they want to move forward. I didn’t hear back yesterday so I emailed HR and she said she wasn’t part of the hiring decision so would reach out to the initial interviewer for his feedback. I haven’t heard from her and it’s been 24 hours - starting to get worried. What should I do? Does this mean they’re not interested?
