Leetcode on hard

Being able to manage cross functional teams without having specific authority over them is a good skill to have. Any experience in human centered design or design thinking. Developing a vision and roadmap

Thanks G1. So from what I gather I need to know how to code, but I can’t 🙈. Not sure what I can do about that in 72hours. I have start up experience and have launched an app on the App Store as co-founder. Managed dev and designers, but zero coding experience. Any advice on what I can do to best prepare in the short timeframe. Also, can you tell me more about leetcode. How should I use it to get the most from it?

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.

Hi there. Ex Deloitte Sr Mgr here, currently in tech pre sales (SaaS / MarTech). Recently spoke to both Salesforce and Adobe recruiters for roles that I thought were lateral moves (Sr SA / Sr SC), therefore I did not proceed with the selection process. The recruiters from both companies told me they typically hire at that level, and people are considered for promotion to Principal in 1 to 2 years. I found that odd. Is that right? What’s the typical TC for SAs and SCs there? (15+ yrs exp).

I am interviewing with a company. Last week, one week after the interview, my hiring manager reached out to me with a couple of clarifying questions.

I haven’t heard back since and yesterday I reached out to the recruiter to get some status updates. She has not responded. It’s already Friday. Is it a bad sign or am I overthinking?
