Your role is a BA and PM. Seems unusual. Those have very different levels of experience.

In general, have your stories ready, all the “tell me about a time” answers. Be confident. Show some humility. We’re a casual bunch, so be yourself. Be authentic. Have some good questions to ask the leaders you meet with.

smart

Thank you SC1. Will keep y’all posted!

What market?

Sorry market means city around here - Philly answers the question. Each market runs very differently so just helpful to try to connect with people in the same office.

Just got a job offer but they are only giving me until Monday afternoon to decide. I'm currently in process at several other firms and the recruiter said they can't/won't give extensions. How bad is it for me to accept and then decline if I get another offer? The other companies would be paying 15-30k more and I feel like that's way too much to give up especially right out of school. I emailed the other companies I'm interviewing with to see if the process could be expedited and (1/2)
