Hello, I have an interview this week with Riot Games for an L&D specialist role. Anyone have any tips or work at Riot Games?

I have an interview for a Principal Renewals Manager role at Slack/Salesforce this Wednesday and I was hoping for some advice on how I can wow them? Ive done a lot of research and made loads of notes but get very nervous in interviews and dont always articulate how I would want to / say everything I want to cover. It also doesnt help that the job im in at the moment makes me absolutely miserable and im desperate to leave… help!

So I get that in a corporate set up, you are supposed to be sharp and witty and think on your feet. Trouble is, I am extremely slow with comebacks. (Think Ross in Friends/Amy in B99) at the crunch moment, I generally end up not being able to give a good roast back. Unfortunately the best of them come to me like a few hours later (dinner/shower/TV) and I am left ruing and amazing opportunity to have gotten one back. I am awful at jibes and roasts.

Anyone else suffer from this?

Any tips for someone trying to pivot into product management from Property Management ?

Professional assessment tests...

Can anyone recommend online professional assessment tests for profiling personality / aptitudes, rather than for skills?

Or can you share which assessments you've seen private equity firms using most often?

Thaaanks.

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people. Then a couple of typos in emails, the person micromanaging me told me to send out but I didn’t fix the errors. Failed to meet a deadline but completed 95%. I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.

All I know is Legolas, Aragorn, Gimli, and Gandalf would NOT have taken a L last night against the Night King and his army

I have seen that Some people are seriously demeaning Publicis Sapient looks like they have a personal grudge. I would suggest to connect with your HR and manager in PS or look for right people on LinkedIn.

I realized a slow pace at work is really bad for me. A couple years ago I was experiencing burn out from my fast paced job supporting transactions, and believed by moving to a slower job in a lower cost area, I would be sailing off to the sunset. Wrong, I spend weeks following up with other teams, often times they forgot what we discussed, so I spent 50% if the time reminding them of the topics and next steps. I spend most of my time writing memos no one will read.

Are FAANG companies really the place to be for SWE’s? I want to work for one but I’m worried about culture & work/life balance.

Any media peeps working brand side? If so, what kind of role do you have and what is different/same/surprising from your previous agency-side life? Especially interested if you pivoted in your career.

Someone needs to explain to me why I need to urgently (like yesterday) explain a matter to the people running the specific part of the deal (noting to them that OC’s request is nonsense because Y) only to be copied two days later - “my colleague X will provide”.

Does anyone here know any good recruiters for Boston? Not looking to move, but want some intel (and feel awkward reaching out to the recruiter who placed me here).

The struggle is particularly real today

Anyone know any recruiters that work with 3Ls still looking for jobs?

Rumor: CSR annual fee is increasing to $550. Added perks: DoorDash and Lyft credit.

I’ve been working on making small conversations to strangers as a way to manage my social anxiety and to try to meet people the old-fashioned way, but it’s so nerve-racking. Any tips?

2012 Sr Associate. Left my firm in February after being recruited by a partner I used to work for, and it turns out I’m not very happy. Difficult people, terrible schedule and ruined vacations so far. A partner at my old firm in another group has asked if I would come back to work for just him. I liked working for him, we have great rapport and I could do permanent WFH since he is in another city. I don’t want to burn bridges, would this be a bad idea? Or an easy decision?

Hi,

Please help me in getting 11 likes to unlock dm.

Recent immigrant and about to buy a car - insurance company said it would take 2 weeks to process my application. Is this normal? In the US I insured my car with one 10min phone call, so was a bit surprised
