How are you guys job searching for managerial roles laterally? I am targeting Mgr or SM roles in data science preferably followed by data analytics but majority of the roles are individual contributor and I don't want to be doer anymore. Anyone in a similar state?

Anyone else have a great work mom? Work wives/husbands are great but work moms are the REAL deal. They're stern when they need to be but want what's best for you.

LA creative: I guess the good thing about working late is I’ll be able to skip all the traffic:

Hey all,

What's with the probation period with Deloitte India? What's the rate of termination, if there are any, unlike the other firms (who have a probation but 99.99% of the employees are confirmed at the end of probation).

Appreciate your inputs.

Thank you.

Feeling old. Selling my $4000 motorcycle and buying a $4000 couch.

Any books/self help materials for someone who is constantly worrying (and waste a lot of unnecessary time)? E.g. No matter if i pass or fail an interview, there is always something to worry about. The worrying/anxiety multiplies when I proceeded further in the interview stages. Now that I signed the offer and is pending background checks, my anxiety is off the roof as it itches closer to my starting date.

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

Do you always wash your hands after petting your dogs? I got a new puppy and am constantly washing hands and trying to be as sanitary as possible. I'm simply to grossed out if I don't especially since I found out my puppy has worms.

Those of you who have left a firm, do you still keep in touch with any of your former supervisors, via email, happy hour, or otherwise? How long did you wait to re establish contact? I’m in a small market and worry about perception at my current firm. TIA

How do I politely decline that I’m not okay to make out in the first date or when the guy calls me over to his place after we meet/eat/drink? I want to take things slowly & know the person before getting physical. Not everyone might like this but that’s what I am & this whole thing appears off-putting.

I have been working in healthcare clinics and health techs for a few years now. I’m an independent consultant. Bust, a friend of mine referred me to a big bank job. The role is of data governance manager. What should I know for the interview, or how can I prepare for it? Any thoughts? They told me I don’t need financial background.

Does your company split data science roles into different practices like data & analytics and software engineering? Does this inhibit collaboration & Where does a data engineer fall?

I am currently working mostly in Data Analytics, but I want to transition into Data Engineering. I've applied to a couple Data engineer positions but it seems I don't have the qualifications for them. Should I maybe look for Jr. Data Engineer positions to get experience and try to move up from there? If so anybody know of any Jr. Data Engineer positions available?
