I’ve been in my field for a few years now and can definitely do the job, but I can’t shake the imposter syndrome. I feel like I’m totally winging it and starting from square one with every new task. Does everyone go through this as they grow, or is it just me?

Have you ever had any decent feedback from colleagues or your manager? If nothing negative has ever been raised I think you can be quite confident you're doing things well, each task is hard to start and you'll constantly be learning. Everyone else probably feels very similar.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?
