Hi all, I am just finishing my Ph.D., I expect to graduate in Aug23. It appears that I am too late to apply for the 23 cycle. Is it still possible to pull it off in the remaining months?

Any help would be really appreciated, getting really nervous here!

I want to get out of ID so badly. I don’t mind the work but the hours are just killing me. I just started at a new firm less than 6 months ago and I am already desperate to get out.

Do you think women in the industry are paid lesser as compared to men.
Out of personal experience ,I can see that during compensation discussion HR person tries to convince a women candidate for a lesser package . Now this could also be the case where it is much easier to convince women to take up the job for lesser salary.
Whereas the male team member gets paid high (same YOE , same number of switch , similar prev CTC) though women are equally or more talented sometimes.
