Starting a new job at Applied Materials on Monday as a Manufacturing Engineer III. I’ve been out of college for 5 years and all of my work experience till now has been in R&D for start ups and small businesses . So not only is this a new experience for me going into such a large company but also a industry (semiconductors). Does anybody has tips or advices on what I should expect as a new hire and how I can set myself up for success? Thanks!
Happy Saturday, Confessions Bowl!

SO sounds like SO is an A+ negotiator. Came into the meeting with goals and left with an agreement that conceded a token win to the opposing side and then got everything they wanted out of it.
Damn. DM me if they are looking for a legal job. I’m slammed.

Not so fast. I’m looking to hire SO - my team needs salespeople who can close.

Just block them.

Nothing. You didn’t accomplish anything.
If you’re looking to break up, you’re wasting their and your time. Be clear and rip the bandaid

The only way someone can talk out of it, if you are wishy washy. Be straight up on why you would like to break up and what is leading to the break up.

I hate breaking up. I’m procrastinating doing it right now— I wish there was a button I could press that does the dirty work for me

Update: you guys gave me the oomph needed to do it. It was overdue. Cheers
It was time, but still hurts to make her cry

🤦🏻♀️
Why were you breaking up? What did they say to make you go with a break?
Omgsh I am in the same boat :/ it’s awful and the wishy washy part is me forreal (someone else’s comment) hang in there tho it’s hard, love ain’t easy I hope whatever happens it works out to where ur happiest!

If there is a same amount of interaction mean you responded? Why do that? Lol

What prevent you to say no and block them? (If it is really urgent they can email you or pass the word to mutual friends - this say get a clean break so there is no reason for they to contact you?)
