Is it possible to switch from consulting to ibanking with a STEM background while on H1B? Or does USCIS care that your education and background fits perfectly into the little description?

I have 3+ YOE, CCTC 3.5Lpa
Ed- B.Com Hons
I am interested in being a Data Engineer or Scientist.
DE aligns most with my learning patterns and I dont think I will require a further degree for that.

However, for DS jobs I feel recruiters ask for relevant DS/ML experience and/or a degree in stats/maths to reflect that the person is aware in theory/practical at least.

I feel getting a DS job will be slow and time taking for me.
Please suggest/advice. Want to discuss this.

Looking for insights from any seller at any of the hold co’s. I have an opportunity to join a new team at a hold co but I’m not sure if it will be a great move to make. I’m doing very well where I am, book of biz is thriving, but the allure of working at a larger company than my small company seems like a great resume builder. I’m not sure where I want to be in 5 years, but this seems like a good way to make myself more appealing. I’ll have to rebuild my book of biz, which means pay cut.

Hi I have 5+ yrs of bedside clinical research nurse experience and have been trying to pivot to the CRO world. I have applied to over 40+ positions and keep getting rejected. I have reformatted my resume to ATS but that doesn’t seem to be working either. Why is it so hard to get into the CRO industry and why is my hospital experience not translating? Thanks

I need advice. I met an amazing guy on a dating app. We talked for 4 months and most of the convo was sexual. I fell so hard for him and it was because when we met up in person he was so kind, caring, and respectful towards me. He never initiated conversation with me first, but if I messaged him, he would respond back immediately. Then after 4 months he ghosted me on the app we were talking on. I texted him and he told me he had a gf. I am completely heartbroken. What kind of behavior was this?

Help! I moved into a new apt building in November. rent here is about 3k but avg rent in this area is way less. There’s been many things I’ve noticed AFTER moving in but the one thing that I can’t get over is the people who live above me. I HEAR their music at 7 am. Like I can sing along to the lyrics that’s how loud it is. It sounds like someone is running back and forth / moving furniture alllll day. It’s driving us insane. Can someone please help with what I can say to the leasing office?

What would you do if you filed emotion including facts that your client told you were true but there is an overwhelming response that they are not. They are quite inflammatory in nature and the person who is accused of saying something about the defendant is willing to sign an affidavit stating that it's not true.

Anyone decide to cut back on certain friends/acquaintances who are in different places in life professionally and financially? Finding that I have less and less in common with my non-professional careered friends as I grow in my career as a lawyer. Anyone else experience the same thing?

Anybody struggling with fellow associates in big law? Currently working with associates that will stab you in the back at all costs and don’t care about building friendships, etc. This environment is mentally draining and I feel like I am an outlier for being kind. Truly shows that nice people finish last.

I know some government jobs can be pretty demanding. How do the worst government positions stack up hours-wise against the average big law associate hours?

My firm is lockstep then goes black box. Recently, us associates have started openly discussing what our raises and bonuses have been the past several years. I, a young female who has one of the highest billable hour counts in the firm, just learned I am routinely getting lower raises and bonuses than my male peers. No issues concerning my work product or anything else have been raised at reviews. Is there a solution here or should I run?

If I put in two week notice today do you think that means I work till the Monday 2 weeks from now or I work this week and next, ending next Friday?

I planning on giving notice to my mentor and boss, who I’ve worked with for years. We’ve basically become close friends but I need to get out of litigation for my mental health and family. Also, my current pay is way under market. She’s probably going to take this personally. How do I let her down gently? Is 3 weeks notice too much?

Anyone experience or know of instances of a rejection after conflicts check pre offer?

Can we stop attaching unpublished cases yet?
