Need advice navigating a conflict - I’m an analyst at the 8 month mark applying to part time grad school for Fall 2021 to complete while working. I’ve been working a lot with one manager that I’ve gotten close with. in November I asked for her to write a LOR for me by mid Jan. She said yes. I still do not have the LOR and have been periodically and politely reaching out... but the deadline is next Monday. How do I firmly communicate my concerns of the deadline while remaining polite?

Am an executive assistant and There is one executive I support who is very annoying. He doesn't behave this way with backup admin assistants when am out of the office

Hi Fishes,
Can anyone tell me about EY FT-GBS ? What kind of work they do and what should I expect in the interviews?
TIA

Started a new job 7 months ago. There’s been a hiring freeze and it seems they canned the recruitment team. Things seems to be slowing down drastically in the span of a week. Getting the resume all spiffed up and getting interviews together. When do you make the exit? “When you find a job” I know, but…

Also, would me making my exit to another role that I might leave in a 8 months bite me in the ass down the line? Do I just grab anything in the interim?

I have the following offers and joining next 3 weeks.

I have an experience of 1.3 years
Current ctc - 8
Tech stack - Data Engineer

quantiphi - 11
apisero - 11
iqvia - 14.5
enquero - 15
KGISL (OPTUM) (CONTRACT) - 13.5

I have interviews with adidas, infoedge and trigent next week. If shortlisted how much should i ask for.

What do I do if I’ve only worked one job (the one I’m currently at) and another company is asking for references? I could do professors from college but not sure if that’s a good idea. I wish I could give my current manager’s contact but I don’t want her knowing :/

I went for 3 interviews with a company met with vp and was given package thinking I aced interview there was another candidate 😞 the other person for the job. The VP calls me to tell me I didn’t get position however he wants me to re apply in new year that something else will be open, and that he wanted to keep a copy of my resume what does this mean ? Should I apply again in new year or don’t bother ?

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Technically, I'm not a college student anymore because I just graduated in December. I am having trouble finding jobs within my field (Communications with little experience in marketing).

Has anyone here worked at or worked with CMS Payments Intelligence (CMSPI)? I was contacted by a recruiter for a position there and have a first interview on Monday.

Thanks!

Why are engineers so difficult to recruit? Sometimes they make me feel stupid lol.

I had cleared all the rounds in S&P and had salary discussion 1.5 month back. The HR is always saying the management is on leave and will soon get the approval and release offer. Today she shas asked for one more week to release the offer. Should I wait for it or move on. Are they waiting for some other candidate to join before rejecting me at last moment. Only 10 days of my LWD are left.
