Setting the deadline for Tuesday and Wednesday for deliverables on Friday that would take a week and have dependencies, thus asking what comes between Friday and Monday. 🤔

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received. I then contacted the POC who scheduled the interview (he is an HCL employee) and he said that I have been shortlisted and will receive HR call shortly. This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?

I feel like my track record of saying "yes" to everything is coming back to bite me. I'm glad pp recognize me as a team player & know they can lean on me, but I'm now swamped with side projects w/ quick TATs, ON TOP of my reg work for clients. How do u say "I physically can't do all of this" without disappointing some1? Something's gotta give, at this point, as I'm burning weekend hrs to keep up. But I fear losing my rep as a hard worker.

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM. I come from a Big4 consulting firm with a background in Enterprise Performance. I’ll be honest and say I’m not feeling very safe in my current role with the ongoing layoffs. Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.
