What specifically do you want to do?

I’m not opposed to Retail Management starting off but ultimately i want to get into Marketing which I’m studying now

To me, that entire top section seems like fluff.

Personally, I would remove it. I would also connect with veterans at companies youre targeting. Say, CVS or Amazon or whatever. There are dedicated veteran recruiting channels.

Can you add more quantifiable data? Think numbers, $$ saved, % reduced, etc. Those things really help a resume stand out.

Hi everyone Google ,

I am facing interview trouble.
1. First round of interview has done
2. 2nd was scheduled on 1 july but interviewer did not join. After a few mails to hr and recruitment team one hr replied that they will reschedule it, and asked me for possible dates.

Since then i am waiting for the interview schedule as all of my given dates have been passed. I don't know how to deal with it as I don't want to miss the opportunity.

Dear Microsoft Fishes,

Attended interview by May month and in-between process has been kept on hold for fiscal year things..

Now HR said that offer is due anytime once approval is provided. Still I'm waiting for approval.

Hr also said, there will be bgv once I get the offer and it takes 3 weeks..

Any idea guys... once we get offer we can trust ms right ? Because it's getting delayed and my old offers from Indian mncs will get expired.

Please put some ideas friends.
