Hey Fishes - I’m trying to move back from US to the gulf. KSA, UAE, or Qatar. Interviewed with a smallish consulting company but they decided my profile was more senior for the role. Applying online didn’t get me good salary.
Any advice or anyone willing to refer me?

Hi Fishes,
I live in Mumbai. 11th July is my last day and I haven't been to office in the last 5 years. Onsite, working directly at the client site in India and then covid ensured WFH.
Please can someone let me know if it's ok to go to office in jeans and round neck T-shirt. When i was at Airoli I had cases where people were strictly made to come in formals.

Is anyone else here still 100% WFH?

I’m not familiar with the jargon but assume they probably need to be a super nice person while on Earth😇
Start by building your network and connecting with existing angels and/or founders. David Rose founded Gust and wrote a book around the process.

You cant invest in biglaw due to conflicts 99% of the time. So I dont fully get your question.
There are angel networks out there you can connect with but by and large, being an angel investor requires sitting on large piles of cash you don’t mind setting on fire to chase an elusive giant gain at the end of the rainbow. You’re coming in really early in a company’s life cycle when there’s not much substantive (since you aren’t generally going to afford the $ required to get stakes in rounds with larger valuations and if the company’s hot then, VCs, strategics and more established players are going to crowd you out) and a ton of companies fail well before they sniff any hope of offering you any ROI.
Also agree with the above that depending on your firm’s trading policies, it could be complicated on how you make investments here since you could have to navigate conflicts when you buy/sell/etc.
I’m also not familiar with this jargon either but I do know “investor” generally requires substantial amounts of money. Once you are done paying student loans off, golden handcuffs, etc, you won’t get enough by just working in big law.
