I am a newly barred attorney in the District of Columbia with the option to waive in to majority jurisdictions and I have been having the hardest time finding a job or even landing an interview. As I read posts on LinkedIn & here, I am pretty certain that it is not a me problem, but rather a countrywide issue.

I’m trying to remain positive & continue to put job applications in, but I’m not too sure what to do. I just feel so lost.

Btw, I’m a first generation attorney.

Hi, fishes.
A quick query here.

I'm going to move from non IT profile to IT profile. Basically I'll be applying as front end engineer in new company. Previously I was working in a BPO profile.
Just wanted to ask if I'll be provided training in my initial months as a front end engineer or am I expected to work from the very first day.
Your comments will be really helpful.

Thank you.

I like to apply for Product Manager roles at Amazon since I like the role. I have done front office CRM (SAP) implementations for Fortune50 clients through Accenture.
It is more of sitting with users to understand their process and map it to CRM suite and build additional features to map their specific processes.
I have also worked on sales, BD and functional spec creation for new features.
Can I count these as Product Management experience while applying for Amazon or other Faangmula?
