First and foremost, don’t let a crappy project or lead make you feel like it’s time to leave. Get on a new project, find a new team, etc. If you’re still ready to pull the parachute, scrub up the resume, make your LinkedIn profile up to date and switch it over so that recruiters know you’re interested in new opportunities.

Next up, start looking online for different jobs. Learn what’s going on in industry. Spend 15 minutes a day doing this - there’s no way you can’t find 15 minutes.

Next, start applying to jobs

Hi All - I have a final round case presentation coming up. I have to chose a company and create a 5-6 slide deck on how the company I’m interviewing for could implement its’ solutions to improve revs/profits at the company I chose. For people who have done this with success, do you have any tips? What was your approach with the deck? Did you use their branding/colors? Did you keep it simple or try to impress with your PowerPoint skills?

Any help is appreciated! TIA!

Is there anyone who’s experienced helping their parents get health insurance? Specifically, they aren’t eligible for Medicare, make too little to qualify for ACA subsidies, and cannot get employer-provided insurance. Only option is to pay standard premiums - and if that ultimately is the case, fine. Not trying to find loopholes, but given their low-income, would be nice to know if there are programs I’m not finding in my rsch.
