My MOH is probably not going to be able to attend my wedding bc of covid restrictions. Freaking out slightly because I don't have someone close enough to replace her / I don't know how viable her zooming in would be? Any advice / tips?

I didn’t have a MOH and everything was great. Had 5 bridesmaids and they all handled anything and everything necessary on the day and the week leading up. What type of role did you have in mind specifically that she would do?

Came to say the same thing. I don’t plan on having a MOH and my fiancé won’t have a best man. Is it more about her helping with certain tasks or finding a way to include her in the day?

How big is your wedding? Do you have other bridesmaids? Day of coordinator?

The same boat? Stay safe!

Hi Fishes,

I am currently undergoing a recruitment exercise for the role of Senior Principal, Research with the Peers & Practitioners team at Gartner India Research & Advisory Services.

Also are they giving options of a permanent WFH post covid? If not can I work from some other office such as HYD, BLR instead of NCR?

Hello, hoping for some input on how to time a job change. At a startup - we are doing well now but unless we have complete turnover in management I don’t think we have a bright future post-COVID. I could coast here 1-2 years before having to look. I’ve been here for a little under a year. This is my second in house job after 10 years at the same firm. The market is hot now, probably won’t be in 1-2 years and I am getting interest for good roles. OTOH I don’t want to look like a job hopper.
