I moved to the Netherlands 3 months ago on a spouse visa. Was working with EY-P earlier. I have been applying to jobs and giving interviews but for some reason things are not working out. I get a different reason everytime (after going through the whole process). This has never happened earlier in life and now I don't know what else to do. I have worked as a strategy consultant (& a researcher). Should I change lines? Where else can I try?
I can't apply to boutique firms since Dutch is mandatory

What is the process need to follow for getting the reimbursement for(I am at M level) ITIL or Scrum master certification from cognizant side.

Hi Everyone. This question is specifically for people who have an Abu Dhabi work visa. How long did it take for your work permit to come through after you provided the complete set of documents to your firm? Thanks!

I would appreciate your perspective.
I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?

Who has pet insurance? Who do you go through, how much do you pay and for what kind of dog and age? Is it worth it? The more research I do the more conflicting answers I get. TIA!

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA

Hello all, I hope you’re all having a fantastic day/evening. I’m a Case Manager for TZ Insurance, aka Tranzact. Does anyone know of anything I could apply for at other companies/positions with my skill set? I don’t want to be a sales agent, though I have a Health/Life Insurance License in my state (& a few others). I review new applications with clients. I’m sick of dealing with all the 65+ & disabled people who are always irate & impatient, inside the “Medicare” area of Health Insurance.

Hey friends, since we have a lot of new joiners to the group I thought maybe we should share any advice we got/wished we got when we started our journeys.
Mine are:
1) a good diet changes how you perform at the gym and is key for aesthetics
2) master the form of your exercise. Form > weight always
3) Follow a structured program. The worst structured program will have more benefits than no structure
4) consistency > perfection
5) listen to your body
6) have fun with your exercise!
