Best resources for mental health among cops?
Hi fishers, which offer should I go with?
EPAM Systems 19L + 2L jb (don't know for which client I'll be working for)
GE Healthcare 23L fixed but under third party payroll (Joulestowatts). FTE conversions can happens after 6 months. (I like the project here). And no gratuity.
Is it worth joining GE healthcare under third party payroll and how about conversion to Full time in GE, does anyone here know about this?
Tech stack: python, data science, backend
YOE: 3.6 CCTC: 12L

My experience was way different than SA's. It was a total of maybe an hour, all done online. No physical tests at all (obviously), just a bunch of routine questions. Things like "Do you have trouble finishing projects?" "Do you feel like your mind is always racing?" "Do you have trouble sitting still?" I ended up getting diagnosed and prescribed 15mg Adderall 2x/daily. It's been such a gamechanger for me. I finally feel like a normal, functioning adult.
@MM thanks for sharing your experience!! That sounds so convenient and seamless, glad this has worked out well for you long term!!
Mine took about an hour, maybe 2. There was a paper test (this was 20yrs ago) and conversational questioning centered around your experience with some of the most common symptoms.
I was 19 at the time
My process took a total of like 8-10 hours, over 4-5 sessions. No physical tests, only mental. I'd make sure insurance covers it as it's super expensive without insurance. The first appointment is an interview about your childhood, any difficulties in school, etc. The others were different IQ tests (WAIS IV).
Thanks both SA and A for sharing your extensive experiences. Much appreciated!
I did two tests in two different countries. My diagnosis was not recognised in a non-European country.
In France it took me 4-5 sessions with a therapist. They asked about your life, how you were at school, how is your work life, IQ test. In Canada it took 2h and it was basically a condensed version of all that. When I said that to my therapist in France he laughed and said it goes against all standards there is in Europe.
They have an app called circle medical where you can meet with physiatrists on line and they can prescribe meds online. This worked for me.
