One of my friends refused to take up finance as a career due to the layoffs.

I have got a job offer for the role of Architect in EY GDS... How is the SAP practise in EY??

Question for any partners out there. At what point in your career did you know you wanted to make parter? Was it a very intentional goal for a long time or did you start to pour into that goal a couple of years prior to making it?

Best business group for post-MBA at Microsoft? How difficult is it to get into the Bizdev/strategy group at MSFT?

Ex-Sales person looking for a job in finance or investment management, but having a lot of trouble getting responses from applications (likely due to my lack of experience outside of sales). Degree in finance from UGA. How can I boost my chances of landing a job in a new career path?

Anyone currently slammed advising hospitals and payers on COVID-19?? What are you seeing in the market?

Wish apps like BetterHelp were free. I can’t afford healthcare or therapy (I’m unemployed, and yes, I’ve tried seeking pro bono therapy options — no place anywhere nearby offers it.) I really need a therapist I can talk to on at least a weekly basis to just unpack so much that’s bogging me down to the point of being unable to function some days, but it’s just so cost prohibitive! What sucks is everyone assumes this career hands you median wages on a platter but I’m worse off than I’ve ever been.

Hi fishes. Can you tell me how to negotiate an early release from my manager? My np is 90 days. I told the hiring person that I can get relieved early since I really wanted the offer and also got it but now worried about it.

I got an offer to join bank of america as a band 4 (product director) and because i have high in demand skills, i was asked how much i wanted. They are basically poaching me as i have already been leading a really high profile project for a year. I asked for the range, and got told that due to the market being tight, they had more flexibility than usual. What number can i give without leaving money on the table?

How does VC pay compare to Tech PM roles? I know VC pays more if you get to a Partner level (because of the big carry) but asking about VC Principal level compared to Sr. PM / Director of Product. Thanks in advance

Anyone know of a good app/site that blocks your access to specific applications for a selected time?

Embarrassing to admit but I have a hard time putting my phone down and I’m sick of wasting my time. I’ve only found ones that allow you to block access to selected apps but it also allows you to end the blocking period whenever you’d like (thus not really helping my ADHD impulses). Open to hearing suggestions!

Real talk...when and where will the first queer happy hour take place? Any Chicago peeps?

Hi fishes - What is the market standard package for 7.2YOE, QA automation role?

I applied for a Global BDM position online and the application asked for salary request I listed $130k-$140k. I had a conversation with a former colleague that works at the company I applied to and he told me the position pay band is $175k -$200k. During the HR screening the TA Rep mentioned to me the salary I put on my application. I told her that’s a good point to start negotiations. Just trying to see if I shot myself in the foot.

Does anyone know the dates for the Cannes Young Lions briefing? I would like to participate in the global competition.

Hi Team

Is it correct.?

And also why the Hiring is on hold now

Just got an offer at Capgemini as a Senior Consultant (Data Scientist) for 130K + 7K signing bonus on the West Coast. Does anyone know if this is what I should expect?

I’ve recently started work at a very young tech startup. Coming from a big law background, this was a huge change of pace/environment. I’m having a lot of trouble getting used to how unstructured the startup is. It feels like hire ups give a set of instructions then talk as if they don’t remember, or then decided rules A, B, C and D applies without being clear this was the case. Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?

Looking to eventually transition out of EA role. What are some success stories of ppl who have gone onto different roles? Looking for inspiration and career path ideas! Thanks

How do you set boundaries if you’re salaried with no OT?! I told my boss that I’d only be online from 8-6p and he finds that he isn’t getting enough support. I lowkey feel like telling him he needs two EAs but I guess you can tell how cheap he is because no OT. Any advice? (Ps, I’m aggressively job hunting because this ain’t it)

My position was eliminated on Monday 4 months after leaving my job in good standing. Do you suggest temporary work for a few months vs just finding that perm role? Thanks!

I recently left teaching and work at KPMG as an EA. What could I go on to do as I gain experience? Having a rough time connecting the dots.

What is the salary range for Sr. Administrative Asst. 20 yrs experience, 8 yrs with firmNYC? Client facing with client C-Suite EA’s to schedule PPMD mtgs. Heavy calendar management.

Any KPMG EA's here? What is the culture like?

Was an admin assist for 5 years and looking to move to an EA role or a Project Management role... i am currently taking the google certification program for project management. (Which i believe will look good for either role) Any other suggestions on how to make this transition?

So I guess starting the day at 7 am is just the norm now? I had to rearrange my workout schedule to accommodate for constant early morning asks. I left that company due to a lack of boundaries and after a month at the new job, the 7 am business is starting again. Why does it have to be like this??? It feels like no matter what time of day or day of the week I try to have for myself, I can’t relax because I always have to be ready.

Can anyone share the Amazon EA salary range in Dallas, TX?

One executive I support wants to share his location/whereabouts with me through the Apple app, "Find My." He wants me to know whereever he is so we are right beside each other.

Would you feel comfortable? Or am I overthinking this? To me, I don't care where he is.

Am just wondering if this is an appropriate request to ask an EA?

I am an Executive Assistant with over 8 year experience seeking a position at Google as an Administrative Business Partner. Would an existing employee kindly be able to refer me to a position.
