Looking for women’s suit suggestions! I haven’t had to wear a full suit since pre-covid so none of my current options fit me - hoping to take advantage of a Black Friday deal for 1-2 new suits. Where should I shop? FWIW, I’m 32 and have a short/curvy body type.

Thanks for the tip! Went today and loved their options.

Similar body type, and I've found it impossible to get off the rack stuff that fits the top half and bottom half of my body. I've concluded that tailoring is the way to go, or mix and match pieces from different sets. There are lots of ways to look professional, attractive, and feel good without a full suit, though.

Were you expressly told by someone you need one?

Hobbs UK (order from the UK site, huge sale now), Sandro, Maje, Sezane, all great quality, better fits, and more stylish than any American brands.

Bespoke most any good brand with high thread count. Second, Armani Black Label.

Similar body type/situation. I’m shopping at Macy’s for Calvin suit pant sets.

Since it’s for long term please get a quality suit. Start with jos a banks. Black Friday ones are not of great quality it’s made to match a price

Brooks’s Brothers

Name is deceiving! They have pretty good business casual to professional clothes. I also have a few blazers I dress up and down

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co. I'm US based and my salary is around $250k (NYC) -I've been asked my expectation without the startup giving me a range to work from (though I've asked). I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?

Hi Fishes,

I am looking for the job change in ServiceNow profile and having a experience of 4+ yrs.

Currently I am trying to create network in linked in and naukari but still not getting the response from some companies like JP Morgan or mindtree etc.

Can u help me to understand what is the best way to create a network to some major companies.

I know applying directly to the company site mostly doesn't have any benefit or will take long time to schedule the interview.

I’m looking for a tool that allows me to search for text in Office Actions and responses. For example, is there a way to search for ‘written description’ or ‘improper Markush’ issued by Examiner John Smith? Does something like this exist?

Hey guys. I have a technical interview with AlixPartners restructuring and turnaround team. This is for their summer intern position. I didn’t come from a restructuring background.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

Reasoning is that I don’t want to lock away all that money maxing out 401k. Have 3 months expenses liquid in a savings account. Is this really dumb?
