Hey I am currently in Banking and looking to change job industries into Project Management. I have a lot of transferable skills but have no experience in the field. I am currently working on a Google Project Management Certificate but would like to branch out into this field before completing. Any advice ?

For Project Management, from what I know having a nationally recognized designation like PMP is important to have. There are recruiters out there that instantly toss resumes that don't have those kinds of designations.

Hi fishes, I need some guidance.

I am currently into the SAP Security domain and I absolutely do not have any interest in it. I am planning to shift to development and have started on some courses on my own.

My question is, is there any future prospects in SAP UI5 and Fiori? Since my background is in SAP, I assume it will make a domain switch easier.

Or should I move into the JS-React path since there seems to be a lot of demand? But my worry is about my lack of actual work experience

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
