It's not unless you're a covered person. You would know if you were. Just apply if it's something you want. They will do all the independece stuff to make sure, should you take the position. Prior to that it won't matter.

Are they an adviser only? I.e. they provide a service and do not own your client or the other way around? I’m pretty sure that’s fine.

They’re the advisor, my client is a publicly traded vehicle and the advisor owns approx 15% of my client

Shoot totally misread it to “an” adviser. You probably would need to disclose.

I don’t think it raises any red flags if you go through Ask Independence. Like no one is going to tattle on you that you’re asking. I was a little nervous when I asked for my employment contract through some HR service thing to check the non-compete language and literally no one blinked an eye.

So, after a year of not so quietly making it known that I wanted to make the transition from the tech side to the business side I have officially been extended an offer to take on a Project Manager internally (coming from a software configurer).

Resigned from my job for blatant racism last week. Been a contingent worker for 6 months. The manager that recruited me unfortunately left after a couple weeks and went to another company. She however recommended me for the permanent opportunity to higher management. The acting manager came in, permanent role was posted, I applied, interviewed……manager told me they chose someone else external for the role. I could sense the manager had no intentions to hire me permanently
