I’m in the habit of alwaysss trying to get a referral before I apply to a job. Is that what most people do? Should I start applying to some things even without a referral?

@SDS1 well for seniors it is very hard if you don’t have coding. There are many analyst level jobs in Chicago. I understand your pain though. I, too, work in analytics/strategy and am plagued with the “you need R/SAS/SPSS” at the moment. To be honest with the way the market is going even data strategists need to have coding because of automation. Clients are transitioning their data to them so it would be good to try and learn some groundwork.

Thanks guys! I think I’ll keep with it even tho it’s a bit time consuming

Yep! I’ve been working in R and have worked in SPSS in the past. There are plenty of opportunities if you have the technical skills

Hi everyone,
I want to learn Salesforce Tableau CRM (formerly known as Einstein Analytics) and switch to a different organisation. In my current company stuck in a project where there's no learning scope, no growth and work culture is toxic. Now I'm only going through Trailhead, YouTube playlist videos and practicing hands on in my free personal org. Are these enough to crack interviews or not? I don't have real-time project experience.

Heading to an M7 soon from a tech company where I work in a product-adjacent position. I didn’t need this degree to “break into” product management (former company would have let me transition), but I still figured it could be good for the long run.
Now when thinking about 100K in loans, I feel anxious about not getting a PM role after. Was this the right move?

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH. There is talk of bringing everyone back to the office full time and that’s not what I would like to happen. I’ve been searching for a new position in which it would be a remote role. My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)
