Looking for advice: currently working at a company. The pay is below average. I was contacted for a subcontractor role and would mean more money for me. I’ve checked contracts and etc and no mention of conflict of interests and such, should I let my company know or just accept the subcontractor role/freelance offer?

Is the subcontractor role at your current company ?

like

No, a contact on LinkedIn reached out for a short term project in their company

If they know you work for their client and don’t mind then I would imagine it is ok.

like

Not their client

If you haven’t signed a contract saying otherwise, you have no obligation to tell your job that you have another job in your free time.

Thank you!

I don’t know how many people are in the European market who can help me but here we go. As someone who recently finished an internship at a Big 4 company in Germany, I realized that every strat role requires or strongly recommends a masters degree (as I have a cs undergrad). So here’s my situation: would it be better to do a masters in management at a top school in Europe, or accept an offer from EYP for a full time role. I don’t want my lack of masters degree to come up negatively in the future

So I had a first interview this past Friday at a company that I had previously interviewed with and made it to the final round last month.

I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?
