I've been arguing with my husband, who is also a Consultant. Who is right in this situation? I've done my fair share of case interviews in the past, but it's been about four years since I've done one. Even so, I feel like I know what I'm doing and don't need to waste time practicing with mock interviews. My husband disagrees and is pretty insistent that I should be doing more to prepare for my interview next week. But how much could have changed with these interviews in 4 years?

It’s a muscle you haven’t used in four years, best if you practice.

I think your husband is just hoping you succeed and maximize your chances as much as possible, I don’t think it comes from a place of ill-intent or him thinking you’re not prepared enough. Also, extra interview prep doesn’t hurt anyways

Hello folks, I’m after some advice please. I recently bought a couple of indoor plants and added to the cart what I think is a very expensive bottle of natural mist to use on the leaves. All organic, glass bottle etc. supposed to use it 2-3 times per week but 2 weeks in I’m down to half a bottle and it was £15 (approx $20). I understand that I need to nurture the plants but it strikes me as a rather expensive mist. Is there anything you’d recommend I can use instead? Thanks.

I am currently going through an interview process and one of the seven interviews is with someone I may be managing if I get this job. I actually love this idea and I look forward to learning from him/her. Has anyone gone through a similar interview before? What kind of questions were you asked? I’m assuming it’s more of a meet and greet with a mix of leadership related questions.

Hi All,
I had my 1st round of interview with Executive Director and 2 leads for Technical role. I have 2 queries-
1. How many rounds should i expect in total considering I clear everything? (I think my first round itself has technical + manger/director)
2. How long (time) will it take to get an offer?
TIA :)
