New Co-Bowl Leader here. How ya doin? I wanted to let you all know a few things:
1) Recruiters & Talent Folk didn’t used to have access to AAR bowl, it was only recently that we could respond to your questions, comments, concerns.
2) We aren’t going to allow trolling, doxxing, or shite behavior. This is going to be a helpful place for positive, constructive conversation.
3) We’ll be doing an AMA in the coming weeks.
4) Next AAR Live Session is September 16th, and we’re talking Portfolios!

This bowl could be super helpful, but always gets too aggressive. Cheers to the reboot.

Hell yeah. I’m actually glad to see which users outed themselves off the jump as trolls. Makes cleaning up much easier. 👌🏼👋🏼

I’m here to participate & stay. But it is true that Recruiters, Talent, and HR used to not have access to write replies, only to view.

joanna thanks for creating this bowl!

please...

no “meditation” or “release” during AMA. 🤣

@FAD what does that even mean?
AMA means “ask me anything”. Myself and my co-lead will be here to answer your questions about what we do, the behind the scenes, etc.

Although, I highly recommend meditation as a daily practice. Helps me a lot anyway!

We had a bowl for asking recruiters questions that recruiters had no access to? 🤣

No, the bowl has been around for over 2 years, started by a recruiter who left. We’ve always had trouble getting recruiters to participate and stay.

I’m happy to participate as well but Joanna is correct, I wasn’t allowed to reply on it until last week for some reason.

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
