Will keep in mind, thank you!

The "quant interview" is kind of a meme compared to Cap One BA maths so you're probably chilling. Focus on fit

Thought experiment for you, fishies.

We all love to hate on billable hours. What’s a real, feasible alternative???

Small agency owner 🙋🏻‍♂️ I’ve wracked my brain and have 3 biz model options, none great:

Billable hrs: Generally accepted. We all know the downsides.

Pay4performance: Big upside potential, tons of risks.

Project pricing: Cloak for billable hours. You have to estimate project cost with something.

Who’s thought of a better approach??? Genuinely curious if there is one.

Why is that you see people rise in the profession of teaching who prosper to Principals.

I need to know: when seniors tell you to learn excel formulas, read project materials, or basically anything productive during your 'free time' in between tasks, do you actually do it? I only managed to do it a couple of times, but afterwards I become a bit tired of doing this. So instead of learning, I rather rest. And not saying that I won't learn or anything, it's just that I feel that I learn better by doing.
