Is it okay to share the client name on resume if I’m applying to similar companies? I see a ton of people who have written their client name on LinkedIn.

No, it isn't. Never share client names.

I even have clients who know each other, who sometimes ask me if I've done work for the other - and my response is always I can neither confirm nor deny.

You can list a descriptor of the client, but never name the client.

No, but Government clients usually have less restrictions

I find it funny when people add the client name to their LinkedIn. Not under the Deloitte description, but as entirely new position/company referring to the work as "contracting."

What if it's naming a external audit client? It's already public knowledge and available on the SEC website I don't see an issue naming client names in that instance

I see so many resumes where they include the client names 😑

Citing name of clients is an easy way to disqualify yourself from the hiring process.

Hi, I'm an artist with 5 years of experience in the game developmentindustry.

After interview sessions, it comes to salary negotiation. To my surprise, the salary offer is below industry average, even more like junior-level salary.

Though my experience includes team leadership and I have described in detail how I could contribute to the company, the interviewer raised the offer, adding $300 only, still in junior salary range.

What does it really mean, and how do I win the negotiation?

TIA.

On June 21, I had an interview with two managers to become an HR Coordinator. Everything went smoothly, and I got good feedback, so I moved on to the management round of interviews. The recruiter initially stated that I would go through two rounds; however, between June 22-June 23, there were really five rounds, and I am still awaiting the scheduling of one more interview, even though it is now July. I'm becoming frustrated at this point. I’m still actively interviewing with other companies.

Quitting before finalizing offers?

I’m at post onsite and negotiation stage at a couple places but it may take another month or 2 due to either hiring freezes or general slow processes.

I want to quit now to go on vacations that I held off during prep. Does it make much difference when I negotiate offers? Like if my upcoming unvested RSU would be (partially) matched, and they find out I quit somehow, is it no longer matched? Other potential snags?

Already burned most of my PTO interviewing.

I called back less than 5 mins later and left a voicemail, but didn’t get a call back. Tried calling one more time at the end of the day but no answer. Still haven’t heard anything today. Should I keep waiting or try calling again or send an email? Don’t want to be too aggressive but also want to hear their update & hopefully schedule next round interview
