Hi all, I’ve been a software developer for 8+ years with a decent mid-range salary, but my true passion has always been electrical work. I enjoy doing home projects like switches, fans, and lights, and I love working with tools. I’m thinking of switching careers and wonder: what’s the best path to reach $100k+ in California? Union, apprenticeship, solar/EV work, or something else? Also, can my software background help in automation or smart homes?

Hi Fishes,

I have attended two interviews with cognizant for the same role. From that, I have got an offer letter from one panel and I am discussing with the HR about to make some salary revise.
Unfortunately, the second panel also processed my profile and it got short listed and they come back for a talk to process the offer letter. Now the first panel HR called me and asked about the second process why it got happened.
Does this results in any drawback for the offer letter i have got already?

In line with my previous question…how much is your personal credit history worth to you? If you found out that a data broker that has significant security gaps buys your data (let’s say from Experian) and resells it to marketing agencies with even less security, would you care? If you’ve ever received “you’re qualified for this loan, credit card, etc. “ marketing in the mail, that’s based on the data analytics from the data broker.
