I was recently terminated from a company that I enjoyed working for. I’m in the process of interviewing and when I get asked why did you leave, I tell them the truth. I also explain to them that I learned a great deal about this experience. Should I not be so open about my situation? For those who are wondering, I worked for a company for almost 2 years and they told me I wasn’t the right fit and I was completely surprised.

How are you all feeling about the job market and your interview prep? Full steam ahead or on pause?

I’ve been in a smaller firm for a month or so now, and I am struggling to find allies or even collegiality. I have had multiple conversations with other associates who shit talk each other, and say things like A: “don’t talk to B because they don’t know anything…come to me instead” then hear things about A never having peoples backs/stabbing people in the back. It’s making the actual “working” part of the job so tedious because I never know who to go to for help without making myself vulnerable.

I've been almost 3 years in my previous company and never have I ever tasted any raise from them. I got transferred to different accounts and LOB it was so exhausting and finally when I decided to leave and send my resignation my Supervisor be like "you know you should be thankful of your job" To be honest the job was very stressful and supervisor at some point is somehow toxic but thankful I get to take my leave.

Any BCG folks have any insight to the Pymetrics test? Is it used to determine whether I get an interview and is it something I can prepare for before taking?

On a big zoom call this morning. Child walks in fully naked and COVERED in marker. I mean face, legs, hands, everything. Even better, I didn't hear them right away and a coworker had to let me know they were there via chat. Turned around and my kid looked like a soldier in army paint. Not my finest parenting moment since I just pushed them out into the hallway and continued with my meeting. Sharing the shame here

I was recently interviewed for a position at PayTM for DevOps Engineer, and was required to solve a simple search DS/Algo question on Python. After that, I was asked to optimise it's complexity and talk on it further. The interview revolved around using operators (not covered by a standard CKA exam afaik), dangling images reaping automation and ACL/SG on AWS. Just wanted to know if this is an expected format of interview for this position, since it was my first one! YOE = 2

I had recently attended the interview at IQVIA for sql developer position, but when I received the offer letter the designation mentioned there is "Software engineer- technical operations 130'.

Wtf has happened to hiring? What is the point of these massive interview panel formats where 10 people have to sign off on you? What happened to the good old days or 2-4 interviews and decision made?

Is the market really bad right now or am I just getting no interviews from job applications because I suck?!

Guys have oracle procurement cloud exam next week. How should I prepare??

Fourth-year associate. I will soon be commuting to Midtown Manhattan to a firm that pays market. From a financial perspective, am I completely nuts to be driving in and parking? Between tolls and parking, it’s going to be close to $10K a year as opposed to the bus/train being between $2500-$3000 a year. Thing is, bus/rail is pretty reliable in the morning (in terms of availability of options), but if I’m working late service gets dodgy and I like the freedom of having my own vehicle (cont.)

I have a hand full of k-5 students who have gone the first half of the school year without music because of remote learning. Our district is moving to 100% traditional teaching after the MLK holiday. Any suggestions for reintroducing concepts to the group of students that’ll be joining us f2f for music the first time this school year?

Any hiring managers or senior managers from the Big4 (or any other firm with a forensic department that handles investigations or claims services like EY’s I&C or IFCS) that would be open to reviewing my resume and providing any suggestions before I start submitting applications?

What computer and monitor set up do you use to work from home? This seems rather silly but I thought I might as well ask. My chromebook is on its last legs and barely handles video calls/conferences. I need to buy a new laptop and I was curious what most people use.

How does the internal promotion process works in your company?

This company ensured slaves.

I graduated with my bachelor's in HRM and I'm wondering if there are any certifications or trainings I could do before I lock down on the SHRM-CP. I recently became HIPAA certified for my company and that got me thinking about what else I could do to add to my resume. Looking for good stepping stone certificates.

For those of you who spent the time and money to get the PHR or SHRM certifications, do you feel that it actually strengthened your professional capabilities as on HR professional, or did you just do it to fit into the “HR Professional” crowd?

In your honest opinion, do you think your HR certification was worth it? I personally think certifications are a scam. 😅

I rarely have been asked about my certs in interviews and I never ask about certs when I'm interviewing.

PHR or SHRM-CP?

Has anyone’s company bought out by a private equity firm before? My company is in the process of being sold to a private equity firm and I’m not getting all the answers on what’s going to take place after the sell or what they’re expecting of us during the sell? I am at a department of the one. Family owned company for over 50 years fairly new to the company so I’m not sure what direction should I just jump or should I ask for more money looking for advice on what I should do this is new to me!

Any recommendations for online diversity and inclusion training program? With our without a certificate attached.

Hello everyone,

I am currently a HR Generalist for a small aerospace company, located in CA. I have been in a generalist role for a little over 4 years now and before that, I did recruiting/safety for about 3 years. I am now looking into getting my HR Certification, but am stuck in between the PHR-CA or the SHRM-CP. Does anyone have any recommendations they can give me?

Is it worth it to get a professional certification like SHRM/PHR? Not many of my colleagues have one and it’s not a requirement for my role, but I’m curious if it’s worth it in the long run

PHR vs SHRM vs AIRS? Which one should I pursue?

Looking at HRIS options with a client, 35 staff. They are currently using Namely but it is clunky and doesn’t include some of the things they want (integrated ATS, documents, onboarding and offboarding checklists, time off tracking). ADPRun current payroll and are considering Rippling, BambooHR, and Paylocity. Using JazzHR as an ATS right now but would like to fold that into the HRIS so that they can use those dollars for a more robust perf mgmt system. Any thoughts on these or others?
