Im at a Job (not CACi) where I use my public trust and not my secret clearance and will be losing (inactive for a year and a half) in about 6 months. (When active shouldn’t expire until 2027) This makes me nervous since DMV is heavy on federal. Should I jump to another job and start looking or is having a clearance not to hard to get again? Unfortunately my company doesn’t really have jobs that require a secret. I’ve been at my current for a year and a half and current contract is for another 5+

I think that depends on what kind of work you want to do! If you see yourself wanting to re-enter the secret space, you may want to consider getting some interviews in to see where you can go

Hi everyone

I'm in a business development role based in Asia. May I get your thoughts/pointers on the CAIA?

I'm aware that the CAIA is not as popular in Asia compared to the CFA. From my knowledge, there are no CAIA holders in my current firm within the Asian region, despite dealing with alternative investments.

Would be happy to hear your thoughts regarding the CAIA, and study tips if you have any!

My current ctc is 20.3 LPA. And TCS offered 21 LPA. I have told them 4 months back only that my expectation is at least 30% hike.

It's been 1 month now and I want to reject it now saying that i want the better hike. Is that correct?
