Hi Everyone, I am trying to apply for a Technical Support role at Dropbox I’m entering all the required fields but there seems to be an issue, when I hit submit after filling the form, it doesn’t submit and throws error ‘Looks like you left this blank! Please fill out this required field’ when all the fields are entered already (I have checked so many times, and filled the form from scratch several times too). Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?
I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

I'm serving notice period in TCS and my last day is in 2 weeks. I requested for pickup of laptop in the portal but I came to know that it will take time for pickup and I won't be available if they come late. So I decided to go to office and surrender the laptop as I'm in the location of office only. Is there a seperate request to be raised for surrender of laptop and how to cancel the existing request for pickup. Please guide.Tata Consultancy

I’m not a strategist but I have struggled with the whole “agency person applying to in house” thing.
My general advice when asked about an area that you don’t have much experience in: pivot to what your own experience is and how it would inform the way you handle XYZ. They’re going to hear from plenty of people who fit their job listing to a T. But if you have a different perspective, a memorable anecdote where you solved a similar problem, something different that shows not just what you’ve done but how you think, then you’re golden. A certain percentage of every job can be learned ON the job and a good recruiter or HR person should be able to see your raw skills if you frame it right.
I've always believed strongly in an outside perspective being valuable. Flipping your inexperience as fresh thinking. Doing it with anecdotes, as the other comment suggests, is smart.
