Just backed out of a signed offer and I feel like shit. The new company was very delayed in issuing an offer letter (3 weeks from verbal) and approaching a month from background check. I missed kick off events and offered to visit happy hours, but they denied that request until after the start date (which had to be pushed back).

I feel I’m justified in reneging but the group lead did everything they could to recruit and move things along, so I feel bad. Here to vent.

Cleared my technical and managerial round with TCS. Can anyone say how much time it will take to get a call from HR?

May be a silly question but interview is tomorrow - do I need to bring my own resumes? Office printer is broken and apt building printer is not functioning. Do I need to go to a fedex to print it out?

Any podcasts recommendations related to consulting? Trying to escape work ....

anyone know of any open jr jobs? been applying and networking like crazy with no avail 😅

Hi Fish
I saw a post about people looking for rental deals in Chicago.

My building is offering a promotion for anyone that's referred from a current resident. I get a discount credit on rent and you would get one month free, plus a $400 rental credit, plus a $500 Amazon gift card.

There's no move/out fees and rent varies from ~1600 to 2,000 depending if you want a studio, one-bed, or two-bed.

Lakeview Boystown area, new building with ceiling to floor windows.

If you're interested DM me!

As an auditor, do we need to worry about whether signatures are legit? Like if clients mark their initials in pdfs using simple text box, can I accept that or am I supposed to get an email approval

To those who left banking after (or under) 2 years and didn’t exit into PE, what are you doing now, do you enjoy it, and any regrets looking back?

Finished my interviews and expecting an offer very soon (this or next week). Is it too late to apply to other Google roles that I might be interested at this point? Would it be frowned upon?

How under paid am I? I am a Product owner located in Dallas with 1 year of experience as a BA and 1 year as a PO. Our team no longer has a scrum master so I cover all the responsibilities of a PO & SM. I often work 50-60 hours per week (covering releases and working on call). I make 65K.
I appreciate any feedback! Thanks in advance :)

Hi fishes,
I got offer from CTS. But Hr is asking to provide form16 or pf statement for all my previous companies, else my background check will fail. Is it true?
I can provide these for my current company, but difficult to get for earlier ones, since it's been almost 10 yrs I have left them. I have written to hr of previous companies but no response yet.
I told CTS HR that I have experience letter, relieving letter, salary slips , bank statement, but she says it's not enough. Any thoughts pls?

Is it possible to switch from tax to FDD/TS? Wondering what skills are transferable

Has anyone here had experiences being on a managed service team? How bad is doing incidents and break fixes and would it help me grow as a consultant?

Should I be worrying that I haven't grown much at my company in the last couple years? I enjoy my job, but will that hurt me?

During screen I had asked the recruiter what was their interview process is. He said 1. Screen 2. Technical Interview. He said that it becomes clear to them after the technical and that there is a 3rd round with director but their process never goes to that. passed the technical very successfully but now i have been invited for the 3rd round to present a project .Have they made a decision and I’m invited just as a backup choice?

Who gets paid more data scientists or data engineers in New York? Could someone share the career trajectory for both?

How do you feel about tech products that are heavily marketed to men? At this point I think the only gender-based marketing that would be appropriate would be for grooming products.

How long did it take to hear back after your Amazon loop? It’s been a little less than a week since I completed mine.

Hi hi fish bowl family! I was wondering if anyone has any leads for a product or project specialist role at their company? Just got rejected for a role I thought I had in the bag so back to the job search I go… thank you in advance :)

Sr. Program Manager (non tech) L6 SPECT TC range. I have a call with the hiring manager soon. I passed the loop and they offered me a senior manager position. In the HQ2/Washington DC area. Wondering what I should expect for total compensation so I can go in with a little bit of knowledge for negotiation. The Amazon recruiter said it’s typically 190k but I don’t know if they tell you a low number. Masters degree, YOE 18.

I’m looking to buy a Raspberry Pi product as a gift for a software engineer, but I’m not tech savvy. Where do I even begin? Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone use protonmail for privacy's sake? Is it paranoid for me to?

Any advice on how to improve my technical skills? I keep getting rejected on the basis it’s not strong enough

I’m frustrated. I’ve been in the job market for an ungodly amount of time, applying to various companies and have had zero luck.

I’m getting worried nothing will pan out and would really appreciate words of wisdom. Given our current situation, I understand the job market isn’t too hot right now but, are there any companies you’d suggest looking into that are hiring? Ideally, I’d like to work client-facing (sales, BDM, partnerships etc.) please help!

How is it working in tech? I am in an apprenticeship with a tech company to become a Project Manager, my dream is to one day transfer these skills to the fashion industry. Do you think I’ll like tech?
