McKinsey & Company I have an offer from McKinsey & Company for SDE role. I have experience working with a few product based companies so really doubtful about joining a consulting first company.
Is it worth the brand name for engineering dept? Are there good enough projects?

Really appreciate any feedback. TIA!

Unless you are brought in to work on a specific product, Mckinsey isn’t the best place for an SDE, your engineering standards, technical development, and core skills will only go negative from here (given you have worked in a product company).
Nonetheless, it is best to ask your recruiter if this a Client service role or a Firm Service role, the former isn’t the best for Individual Contributors but a good option if you are looking to transition into managerial roles.

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?

Looking for a job change.. plz suggest if there are any openings..
Skillset: .Net Full Stack developer, YoE: 6 yrs.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?
