Hello Deloitte 🐠 20 YOE. Have referral for a content and marketing M role in cybersecurity -- the focus of my career pivot. Submitted my application today, but my referrer isn't in Cyber. Interested to widen my Deloitte Cyber network to get my resume in front of a human, since ATS has no vision or imagination. If you're willing to connect, please DM. So far, made it several interview rounds into roles with EY and Accenture. Optimistic, but want to be as proactive as possible. Thanks!

I’m a big wine guy and I’d say no. The food influences the wine much more than the other way around.
I think the benefit of pairing is that you can get some inexpensive wines to taste great with the right pairing. Or really elevate great bottles.
But if you don’t like wine in the first place, it’s not ruining your cooking not to have any
It’s game changing to me because I love drinking wine. But it doesn’t really affect my opinions of the food that much
I agree with that, I’m by no means the most sophisticated drinker, it’s just more of a fun extra thing to me. I have had some really interesting pairings, but nothing that I felt were make or break by the accompanying drink.
No, not really. Wine, or any beverage, should be enjoyed on its own merits. To think certain wines go “better” with particular dishes, beyond basic wine types/styles, is merely a snobbish element trying to establish exclusivity.
Appreciate the honesty. I was honestly expecting a lot more comments saying yes you need the wine pairing.
I guess I'm the odd one out here, but I totally think it elevates the entire experience to have well-paired wine and food. I think that if you get the right pairing they complement each other so well and you end up enjoying the food and the wine more. Maybe I'm just drinking the koolaid on this one (no pun intended) but I really do think it makes a difference!
I wonder if this is too hard to describe in words but what is the difference like? Does it make you feel like this is now the best way to eat that particular dish.
I am a wine drinker but I would say no.I really don't feel like it elevates the taste of the food. I prefer to drink a wine that I like with my meal rather than something they suggest that will go good with the meal anyhow.
