Hey! Our company is looking to implement a basic tech skills assessment; preferably simulation style of google workspace (i.e sending emails, google sheets, & google docs). We are not wanting to exclude anyone from hire, more so get an overview on where they stand tech wise so we know what training to provide them upon hire.

Is your company using any pre-hire assessments? If so, through what company? Thanks!!

How would you allocate $200K today, knowing (1) this is in addition to your HYSA, investment, 401K.. (2) you have no immediate use (3) if we see a drop in real estate price in the next 1-2 yr timeframe, this could be part of your down payment for a house in HCOL

Hi! Would you be kind to spare some likes? I want to start putting this app to use! Thanks in advance:)

Anyone able to see the September month salary slip in the ADP portal. Any idea when it will be uploaded?

I currently make 78k at Lockheed but I’m not doing what I’d like to be doing and i felt stuck and after many conversations with my manager and no solution in sight, I started applying elsewhere. I just recently got an offer from a smaller AI company for 95k that I plan to accept. I’m happy to make the jump, I just don’t know how my manager/coworkers will react when I tell them I’m leaving.

What’s the scoop on Innocean Berlin? Seems pretty solid and promising, but I’m wondering if anyone can tell me more?

I like my team and work life balance, during the pandemic was very beneficial to my wellbeing. However feel I owe it to myself now, to be earning what I’m worth in the market (I’m underpaid by a fair bit) especially with inflation costs

What is the average hike we can expect this year considering outside market conditions?

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

Hi Fishes, Has anyone attended MAKE MY TRIP interview on the QA Automation side recently ? what kind of questions are being asked, any idea would be a great help

I’ve recently left my job (unhappy with it) and am applying for new work. I have a few irons in the fire at the moment. I’m curious about a trend I am seeing: I like to think I’ve well documented my abilities and functions in my CV, as well as my portfolio. I’ve noticed that for some of these jobs that I can check every single box in the job description, I won’t even get an interview. I’m wondering if many of these jobs are posted for internal hires, but some stay open for weeks. What gives?

Or any advice for a short term solution?
