Hi everyone! I’m a young CPA, relocating to Raleigh. I made the decision to transition into sales after realizing that I want to bring more fun into my career. I’m currently reading sales books, watching Keenan’s YouTube channel, and learning all I can. I’m relentlessly applying for SDR positions but I’m having trouble landing interviews (been applying through LinkedIn). I would appreciate advice from anyone who transitioned from another industry into sales. How did you break the barrier?

PSA: I had a horrible experience applying for a job at Devoted Health. Applied online and then got asked to schedule a phone interview. On the day of the interview, I waited 20 min and nothing happened. I emailed the HR rep, he didn’t acknowledge or apologize and just told me to reschedule so I did. I even sent a separate email to confirm the second phone call. Second day of the interview, same thing, no show. I sent an email letting him know that my time is not being valued. (Cont’d)

I've an experience of 2.6 years and interviewing for jav developer IN3 role. Currently holding an offer in 16 lakh CTC.

I've a joining in 6 days at another firm, can I expect to get the offer before this ?

I received a LinkedIn message from a recruiter about joining the EY Federal practice. They mentioned it was fairly small, and they were looking to expand it over the next few years, and getting in now would allow me to grow with the practice. I’m a SC 9 YOE with D right now in GPS making 114k with a focus on ERP Implementations. Any EY Federal have any details to share as far as TC, opportunities, WLB, etc? Trying to evaluate if it’s worth my time to even go through interviews.

Hi everyone. Considering applying for a Phd. I enjoy conducting research but I am not keen on joining the academia. Currently working as a risk and due diligence research associate for a GRC firm and I am relatively new in the industry. I identified some research areas in the field where I would like to do a Phd in. Was wondering if having a Phd particularly in the research segment of the industry is common, or would it just be an overkill?

AVOID AGODA AT ALL COSTS. First they only had interview times 7pm to 3am, none during working hours. Then come interview time, I wait 3+ minutes in no one shows up and then I get an automatic email saying the interview has been canceled. I also then get an auto email saying they moved on but the recruiter emails a few minutes later saying they are trying to reschedule. A waste of my time and money preparing, putting on makeup, outfit and contacts, and skipping dinner.

Hi Fishes,
I had 4-5 rounds of interview in Amazon in last 1.5 months, including bar raiser. I got a mail stating I am selected for position within 4 hours of my bar raiser round.
HR asked for a few documents like last 3 months payslips, ECTC etc. It's been 4 working days and that HR is not replying on my mail. It is fine or something is off track ? Any suggestions ?
Does they usually turn back after sending selection mail and asking for documents

Thanks in advance !

Hey y’all: Plaintiff’s PI lawyer from NC here. Been working at the same small firm for 5 years. Good results on cases sent from Partners, but really struggling to bring in any clients on my own.
