Hi Fishes ,
I had a HR Discussion after clearing 2 HCL rounds and 2 client interviews . HR is not considering moving above 40% hike no matter whatever I say to justify, the Discussion was like talking to a wall . Any suggestions to get another 10-15% more (first offer)? Will HR reject me stating this reason in HCL ?? FYI- Client and the project team wants to take him in as per their feedback to me and I feel i am the right person for the role too .. 9 years exp -Infra storage domain .

I was trained in informatica and currently work in a support project using Talend and Datastage. K have 1.3 years experience. Is this ETL career good or I should look for some other technology. web development doesn't interest me even when I tried during my college days and also I'm not so good at coding.
Please suggest something as I'm feeling I'm not learning much in this project. This project is very hectic and the management is not at all good. I work for 12hrs n its affecting my health.

Best career option in tech for generalists?

I’ve been working for almost three years as a “data scientist” at a start up but basically been doing everything from gathering requirements from clients, doing UI/UX design, coding the front-end (angular), building and shipping ML models in sagemaker, and managing AWS infrastructure.

I’m planning to change jobs to find a role with clearer responsibilities. What role in tech suits someone who knows a bit of everything but is a master of none?

I have a masters but it’s in psychology, I’m wondering if I should obtain an MBA or should I get certifications? Thoughts?

Is anyone else getting ghosted way too much? I've done several interviews over the past 2 months. 3 in which i made it to the 3rd and final rounds of interviews, only to never hear from these companies again. Not even a "you didn't get the job" and I've emailed several times as well with no answer. Very frustrating.

Hi ladies! I’m a severely burnt out funeral director looking to transition to a new career opportunity. I don’t know where to start bc my career is incredibly niche and I have no clue what I can do to get ahead.

I feel like my job has become my identity over the past 10 years and I'm tying my self worth to it. Would it be crazy to just quit and figure out my life?
