Is there such a thing as a “career consultant” in our field? This bowl seems to be the closest thing.
Basically someone to discuss issues with that doesn’t have a motivation (like co workers or head hunters), and not close friends or colleagues at other firms either.

There are plenty of consultants in this field, but whether they provide value depends on the specific consultant you work with. My small firm did a consult with someone that does this, which consisted of his team reviewing our internal structures and personnel, and then doing a one day workshop with the partners, and it generated some actionable advice. Then the pandemic hit, so implementation only happened partially.

Thanks. I’m thinking on the individual level rather than the firm level - i.e. should I take this lateral offer, how should I value my book, are there things I could be doing to better client development and service, etc

There are plenty - the issue is finding the right one. We used a consultant that we had known for a long time through networking groups, and that had hired us for some work.

There are professional and executive coaches out there. I bet linked in is a good place to start finding some. To coach through presentations or job negotiations etc. I think it’s a great use of resources to be the best you can be and put forward your best self!

Hey fishies! I’m looking to take a leap into the remote world. I am a Sr. Graphic designer and art director in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦. I’m looking to take on more of an art director and creative director role, remotely. I can attach my website and a portfolio if anyone can help out. I have been designing professionally now for just over 15 years now. I work very quickly and very well with other team members. I also take on freelance work. I’m married with 2 kids so the more work the better.

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Having tough time deciding between IB & Consulting. My thought process: I have a "better" background for IB (TAS/valuation) and with tech layoffs, this might push more potential would-be tech applications to pursue consulting (there by increased competition)? Additionally, you can do IB intern and full time consulting but not vice versa. I prefer consulting, but IB seems like the "safer" option? And if consulting does get hit hard, I would hopefully have a full time IB offer via internship.

Have you ever taken a job you know you will hate because you needed the money right away? I have a family to take care of. I don't want to be plowing through our savings for selfish reasons like my mindframe at work, but I don't want to make our lives worse by being miserable. It's a matter of really ruining some of our financial future if we don't get money soon.

I made bacon & eggs for breakfast for my wife. Then we're going to cook together for a few hours and have neighbors over for dinner. I'm thankful for her, them, my job, you lot, and lots of wine.

I'm working in the US under H1B, I got a chance to face an interview for another company. My current company started the PERM application also and results will be out within the next 3 months. Is it okay to transfer my H1B to a new company? Can my H1B transfer be denied? How long will my green card application delay if I move to a new company and start to apply for a green card from scratch?

Does anyone if there is anything legally a company can do to you if you don’t provide a two weeks notice when quitting? I’ve heard corporate talking about charging people for leaving without proper notice but this doesn’t sound legal.
