Hi All,
Currently I have 2.5 YOE in Spring Boot backend, planning to switch at ~3 YOE.

What are the most frequently asked topics/questions in backend interviews at this level?

Is Java + Spring Boot enough or are other skills expected?
Also open to good preparation resources

Has anyone asked for a refund for payments made towards student loans during the pandemic and actually received it yet?

Omar from the wire in that W + K spot for the Atlantic. Well done 👏🏽

Has anyone tried AdvisoryCloud ?? Is it worth it ??

Onboarding new member today. He is a PhD so has lots of theoretical knowledge but knows nothing about the business at large. Any suggested reading materials I can forward to him to help ramp up?

Hi! Does anyone work for DeciBio? I’ve been trying to break into consulting and believe their Life Science Analyst position would be perfect for me. So far I love everything i’ve read about the firm, but i’d love to talk more with someone and possibly get a referral. I plan to apply this week. Thanks!

I’m looking for some advice and/or to vent a little. I’ve been looking for a sales job specifically to pivot into tech sales and I’m getting rejected non stop and it’s really starting to weigh on me and ruin my confidence.

The positives are, I’m actually getting interviews- about 5 so far, I get to the later/last rounds but can’t seem to close the deal. I’ve tried learning from each experience, and taking that as growth for the next interview but it hasn’t worked.
I have 7yrs total sales exp.

EY people- Is there a big difference between Director/ED benefits vs Associate Director?

So with possibly three vaccines arriving by January, what do we think? When does life return to normal?

Any LA shops hiring entry level art director/content creators? Love creating social, video, and pretty much anything in between.

When will FAANG turn into FAANGS to include SalesForce?

Recruiter was suppose to schedule a meeting with me when we spoke on Friday “early this week” but I haven’t heard anything.. do I reach out? Or hold off bc it is a holiday week?

Does studying for top consulting firms’ case interviews help in any way for interviews with other firms (e.g., FAANG case interviews) ?

Currently a big 4 consultant and got an offer from FAANG for a strategy and ops role that would bring my total comp up 60%. I’m really grateful for the offer and really excited, however, I am also interviewing with MBB. It has always been a goal of mine to work for tier 1 strategy firm as I’ve always felt on the outside looking in at big4. I feel like most exit ops from strategy would be S&O industry roles but still can’t get these MBB firms out of my mind. Am I just overthinking this?
