Ive heard mixed things depending on who you work for. The most common complaint I hear is that there’s a bit of an “inner circle” who get most of the opportunities.

That being said, I know some solid CDs who work there and they do decent work. Really depends what we’re comparing them to

Never heard of them! 🙈

Hi - I am a career pivot from higher education into tech and have final round interviews for a DEI Coordinator role (which I'm super excited for).

Does anyone have any resources to help me prepare for this? Anything is greatly appreciated!

Hello Fish,

I have finally had it with all my job application rejections and am strategizing to get more experience. My only work experience has been working at a hospital admitting patients and I think it would be a good idea to volunteer to design websites for anyone needing it. Do you know of any organizations or companies in need of volunteers? I know CSS, HTML, JavaScript, WordPress, Adobe Premiere/Photoshop and am willing to learn any technology for an opportunity to help out.
