Hi, I’m fairly new to corporate America with only several years of experience in financial services. I’m a Black female having difficulty navigating a white, male dominated field. Can someone share advice on navigating the office politics while being a POC? My question is specifically about asking tough questions to senior management. Is there specific “etiquette” to follow?

I have approved I-140. Indian nationality so priority date not close to current. If I switch employer, does my employer need to apply for PERM and i140 again as soon as I join, to get H1B extensions?

Can an ADA make the jump to big law or a boutique litigation firm? I’m a NYC ADA (DANY/KCDA) from a Tier 2 law school (top 45% only) and top 10 undergrad. Can experience make up for mediocre grades?

Looking to transition from healthcare into tech. I have over 10 years of experience working with patient and insurance collections. I have an associate degree and currently working on my google PM certification.

Is it a good idea to trade indexes like VTI and SPY short term? My logic is in the long term indexes will go up so even if I buy high, I can just hold for the long term.

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?

Does IT companies fake job roles like they show development role while attending interview but after joining they give support.Why they don't hire separately for support?Is this because nobody wants to work in support they make job description attractive to make employees join?

New to option trading, trying to create a protective put (cont)

Love that in true form I chose the 1 red meme stock. 😂💎💎💎

Been lurking on this group for a while. I’ve only traded stocks ever. What’s the best way to start with options? Any great video tutorials or websites that can help me understand the basics. I only have theoretical knowledge of options thanks to a derivatives class I did at college.

Recruiters in the USA

I'm London based, never worked anywhere else, but I like the idea of freelancing abroad while it's simple what with all the WFH.

Can anyone recommend any good US-based recruiters? I am a senior copywriter.

Anybody looking for a freelance digital designer? Looking for some new clients. DM please!

Does anyone know the criteria used to determine who is selected to be laid off due to COVID?

Does anyone work for an organization that doesn’t complete its background check until after you’ve been hired and joined the organization?

What is something you’re just naturally good at but not getting paid to do it?

I think i’m good at making people feel good about themselves and just self love talk and want to entertain this part of me but don’t know how.

🌟💫 What’s your gift or Super power💫🌟

Friends! I hope y’all had a great Thanksgiving! I ran my first 5k on Thanksgiving which was definitely different but made me feel good 🤩💪🏽

Are y’all shopping today? Or waiting for Cyber Monday?

Should you add your credentials in your email signature? Would love to hear your thoughts. I have an MBA mentioned in mine and I’ve heard mixed feedback about it on the internet. I value my education, also, they paid for my MBA so obviously they want employees to have one.

Is 2 week notice even a thing? How do you resign from a job nowadays? I keep seeing funny TikToks about Gen Z in the workplace giving same day notice

Being a first-generation college graduate & also first generation in corporate America. What strategies have you used to seek out mentors and advocates? Any input would be appreciated

Some of the white generational wealth I've seen as a financial advisor is actually scary. It's laughable that we expect people without that privilege to ever achieve success in the same ways and to the same degree. Chances are even if you do, you'll have had to work harder in your life than they ever have. Lowkey kind of makes me sick to my stomach.

Any advice on how to get to know my team? I’ve been in my role for a year now. I hardly talk to my team and vice versa. It’s strange bc outside of work I’m social af. I started questioning if finance is even for me or if I’m just not a fit, but I would like to try before jumping ship.

For those that are currently investing.. Did you have an emergency savings first then started investing or did you just take $$$ and start buying?

Do you have to have an MBA to get a job at Big4? I'm trying to get into Deloitte.

Have you guys ever suspected someone on your team was involved with insider trading? Or do you just mind your own business 😅

Since working in Wealth Management the most consistent advice I’ve received is “Don’t burn bridges” because apparently in WM people firm hop all the time, so you are likely to work with them again at some point.

What’s the most consistent advice you’ve received since working in your area?
