I have just got an options trader job at a prop trading firm. But I knew nothing about options/trading/finance. The firms said they’ll be officially training us once we start. But in the meantime, what are some books/resources that you would recommend to start learning first?

Hi Fishes, I have joined my current company in July this year, but things are not as going as expected. I am planning to switch again. Please share your thoughts. Working in automotive research and consulting, total yoe 6+.

As my title indicates, I'm both a product and a privacy counsel at my tech co. The product is consumer-facing and deals w/ privacy issues, so lots of overlap. I'm relatively junior, and currently am in the position of being able to commit to one path or the other. Anyone been here before and have thoughts on career progression for the two tracks?

My work priorities, in order: WLB; predictability; $$$; interesting work

Are there any grade levels for Senior Consultants designation like 1/2/3 in Deloitte India?

Hi Everyone, seeking career advice. I am working as a Market research analyst with an expert network firm similar to GLG.

How to get into IBM ISL from GBS

When an agency is about to hire you as a creative lead but without seeing your book to find out what you had done in your career, is that a red flag to you as a creative?

Would you ever join faAng even if it wasn't the role you wanted, just to get a foot in the door for a lateral switch soon after?

Dear legal recruiters who used to work as attorneys: are you glad you made the switch? I think recruiting could be fun but I know how much I ignore recruiter emails daily so it makes me think it’s touch to place people and make a consistent income. Thoughts?

What are good sectors to specialise in if I wanted to keep my options open?

I am a sophomore at University of Arizona and am a Public Health major while getting a minor in Marketing as well. Do you think this is the best route to get into Pharmaceutical Sales by getting both the health/science and business/sales background or is there better options out there? Thanks!!

Diamond hands please don’t slap me— thoughts on selling puts for GME and AMC? Volatility is so high maybe even a mid March one would be worth it? What about opening put positions for Apr/May?

For all the people saying BB is next:
BBs float is about 555 million while AMC's is 50 million. There are far too many shares outstanding to make an impactful squeeze. Shouldn't AMC be next?
