How do you handle an awkward interview when the partner doesn't sound interested and has questioned your credentials or skillset for the position? I'm not sure if it's a interview tactic or if we're just not geling well over a video call. Interview was scheduled for 45 mins- he had 15 mins of ?s and I had 15 mins of ?s and ended it. I felt discouraged 10 mins into it when he asked whether I knew about the role and why the hiring manager passed me to him given my background and experiences. 🤷

Went into an industry PMO role after consulting and literally hating every second of it after a year. What to get back to more S&O / BizOps focused roles. Any advice from others that made the transition?

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

4YOE @Amazon & trying to lateral to a similar role @FAANG. Have my undergrad GPA (3.8/4) on resume from top 15 school but colleague says to take it off (looks silly). If it’s a good school & high GPA, why ever take it off your resume? Even if 10 YOE...can’t hurt?
