If a second round interview ends with the hiring manager saying the recruiter will be getting in touch in the next couple of days - that’s prob a rejection, right? Haven’t interviewed in years…

Hi, anyone works at the fresenius? Especially as a dietitian position? What do you think about the company? Like benefits, insurance (I have to follow up with specialist), raise, work responsibilities, etc...? Thank you!

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Which Mckinsey office in the Middle East is hiring? Does Dubai office still hire experienced hire now?

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

I am looking at other government jobs.
1. When I fill out my job experience, do I need to include the last ten years or every job I’ve had? I don’t have anything to hide, but I especially in my late teen years I was a job hopper.
2. I have worked seasonally in retail to make ends meet. Do I need to put this on my work experience when applying?

I heard from my head that there is a lot of slowdown in VW Germany... There is Hiring freeze, level freeze and all ... And soon that will spillover to india. So be prepared for very less hikes in coming cycle :( Also automotive sector in general is struggling with tesla laying off 10% workforce recently. Maybe time to make a move? What do you say fishes?

What are equivalent roles in Google for AWS Solutions Architect, TAM, etc. Why everyone is applying to AWS and not to Google? Does anyone know how GCP interview is like?

I recently had an interview with a very promising pre-IPO company in the AI/ML space for a SE leadership position. The interview feedback was better than I expected, but with a twist. They have already given the offer to someone else, but they still want to bring me on board and they asked me what I would like to do. I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?

TCS rehiring started?
TCS HR called me and scheduled an interview even though I said I'm exTcser

Anyone ever considered contractor gig in Meta/Facebook or any other big players in tech? I'm full-time in a smaller company and it's pretty stable. Wondering if the move could be worthwhile. Mostly want to explore other areas. Other things to consider: planning for babies in the next 3-5 years; maternity leave in current position is basically what's legally required.

What questions would you ask in the interview phase?
What concerns would you have?
If you had your pick of essentially the same role at all three of those holding companies which would you pick? Or not pick?

If you have any insight/two cents you up for sharing to help me out, thank you!

So… 3.5 year relationship came crashing in Jan due to covid depression, work burn out, lockdown etc. We have stayed in contact and recently he has come around to apologizing and considering getting back together. However he also revealed he started seeing someone casually 4 weeks ago and technically is cheating on her by meeting me for coffee and to discuss this. I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out

Boeing - 35(Verbal offer after countered them with lucidworks offer).

Now with freshworks, last round is pending.

@iqvia

Folks who conduct interviews at FAANG level companies (behavioral and technical): what is it that you are “actually” looking for in candidates? I realize there are standards you’re making sure folks live up to, but is there ever a role that “gut feeling” plays in people you accept or reject?

A former studio I worked for submitted some my work for consideration for an award, but I’m mis-attributed in the awards credits for something I didn’t do. What should I do?

Partners, were you always recognized as a top performer throughout your career?

Any one who works or worked with Attra?

Have you ever interviewed with Maersk? Had 5 interviews and now the recruiter is ghosting me. A rejection email would be better, to be honest… I am very disappointed.

What’s the dress code for zoom interviews? So far, I’ve definitely been dressed more formally than my interviewers but could be because they were tech companies

I finally got through to the Hiring committee round at Google. Should I be excited or nervous or not read into at all?

Apple UK cover letter - Yea or Nay?

How common are credit checks for roles in accounting or finance positions? Will high utilization on credit card balances and low credit score be a deal breaker? I’ve been irresponsible and made mistakes, but wondering if I can switch jobs now or if I’m best off waiting 1-2 years and cleaning up my credit first.

I’m 37 and I didn’t get nominated for PCEC (mckinsey partner election). Should I give it another year knowing that it generally takes 2 election cycles and I won’t be a partner until I’m 39? Do I explore exits in a recessionary economy? Or praise Christ, go to church more, and suck up my ego because I still have a shot and haven’t been CTLd? How much worse are my exit ops as an AP and how would that look with 2 years later?

Google phone screen for ops roles any insight fellow 🐠 🐠?

Hey Fish Fam, I am about to put in my two weeks notice at a Big4. Going to industry. Any sage advice or pointers on what to say and what not to say/do? I really enjoyed working at B4 and made amazing network of supportive colleagues however this opportunity is way too good to pass. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi all! Anyone willing to refer my wife to a big4? Ex. Deloitte, EY, KPMG…

She’s not enjoying her time at Amazon and looking to switch out as there’s no opportunities to move within. Currently she’s in QA. She has about a year of experience in IT coming from a background in Education. TIA!

What’s a good answer for “why pwc”? I know it’s the same shit as other big 4, but serious answers please. Having trouble finding legitimate differentiators on google

Just got confirmation that my background check went through successfully! Can I give my 2 weeks today itself or is it standard to do it on Friday/Monday?

Is it a good idea to message the recruiter posting the job on LinkedIn before applying? If so, what should I write?

Or should I just apply?

Interviewing for Amazon L6 PMT role. Levels seems to be a bit outdated or the bases are all low. Is L6 a lateral move for PL (manager)? Friends joined as L6 post mba so seems like a ‘waste’ of 3 years in consulting to switch for the same job. Any credit for working these 3 years to shorten the time to L7?

Is at-will contracts the standard in the US? California. Are there any opportunities to have a non at-will contract? We just moved countries and I got a few great offers, but was wondering if there’s negotiation room for non-at-will contracts? Thank you!
