How do you handle ghosting in job interviews?
There is a company that took 3-4 weeks to complete mid level software developer interviews.I gave final interview last week and haven’t heard anything even after a follow up.Is it normal to get ghosted even after coming this long and investing your energy in the process ? I mean, I am fine if they say no or reject me but just don’t take too long that I start losing interest in the role.Has anyone experienced situations like this before? What did u do

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)

Recently obtained my aPHR and I’m considering next steps in advancing my career. I am eligible to sit for the SHRM-CP presently and will not be able to sit for a PHR until 09/2023. Any pros/cons with either certification? Should I wait to sit for PHR or go for SHRM-CP now?

What’s the current WFH model @Merck ? Are they doing a hybrid schedule? How many days?

Working my way up the corporate ladder. I have so many thoughts on leadership and want to initiate changes in the departments I work with. But at this level it's so difficult. Ppl are so resistant to change.

My key learning thus far in my career: Noone gives a shit about your ideas unless you're a head honcho. Real change is brought about from a position of authority.

Have you ever taken a job you know you will hate because you needed the money right away? I have a family to take care of. I don't want to be plowing through our savings for selfish reasons like my mindframe at work, but I don't want to make our lives worse by being miserable. It's a matter of really ruining some of our financial future if we don't get money soon.

Exploring over employment and wondering what jobs one can do with little to no meetings (no coding experience).. would getting certified as salesforce or service now admin be the right path to go?

Appreciate all other ideas .. TIA :)

Anyone relocated from Toronto to London recently (within the last 2 years or so)? My partner and I are contemplating the move...we want more diversity in our lives and want to work to live, not live to work as we do here in our respective consulting jobs. Folks who have made the switch, would you be open to sharing your experience? TIA

Hi fishes, can you help me decide? I'm L63 at Microsoft with TC of $220k and I've got an offer from AWS for an L5 role at $300k TC. I love Microsoft and can see myself growing a lot here. I was approached by a recruiter for the Amazon role.

Happy Monday afternoon to everyone except to those recruiters who ghost job seekers 👻

Has anyone rented office space over the last year so that you didn't have to be stuck in your home all day? Was it worth it, or did you just feel lonely there?

Would you accept a job offer where pair programming is mandated 100% of the time? I have no real experience pair programming so would like some perspective.

Are then any men out there willing to talk about imposter syndrome?

I've been working for Disney from a third-party company for 8 years. It is possible to keep that seniority if I move to an FTE position at Disney?

Do you think tech companies are working together politically?

Can you really learn a language properly with Duolingo? To the point in being able to use it professionally? I feel like it's no rival to Rosetta Stone in that regard.

I’m seriously enatkng to get into an SE role and have been searching for Associate Sales Engineers that do NOT require SE experience since I’ve none. It’s proving to be difficult. Most companies for some reason are requiring 2-3 years of experience for the Associate role. 😭 Any Sales Engineers who know of companies hiring those with no experience? I am in tech as a BDR already.

So, after a year of not so quietly making it known that I wanted to make the transition from the tech side to the business side I have officially been extended an offer to take on a Project Manager internally (coming from a software configurer). The client I have been assigned to has many of our products, however, the specific project I have been assigned to is a problem child and has damaged the companies relationship with the client. Any advice for a new, young PM being shoved into a problem?

Ex-strat consultants who left for FAANG and weren’t happy. Why and how have you pivoted?

Best deal sourcing database? Is pitchbook the best? Other comparables? Private companies but could also include public. Range of industries preferred, but definitely inclusive of tech services companies, solutions/products, too.

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?

Finally getting around to getting a CS degree. Taking a class taught in Haskell and a class taught in JS. In other words, a purely functional language which you can basically read just by looking at type signatures, vs... just no.

Front end people, why?????
