2x stays on trips like 7 or 8 years ago. It was fantastic - one of the first autograph collections if memory serves me and set the bar for that line

Stayed there on vacation visiting Sydney. Great location right on the water. Short walk to opera house and pier. Highly recommend it

I don’t have many international hotels to compare it to but I thought it was fantastic at a great location. Service was also amazing.

I stayed there for a night a couple years ago. Very nice hotel! And location is great

+1 to everyone else, great hotel and location. Price was also better than other hotels in the area, which worried me, but no idea why that was the case

Thanks so much for your inputs, friends!

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
