Working with a couple of companies doing vaccine work (PRD) so think we’re making some good progress but overall sentiment is the rate of infection (esp in US) is overtaking the rate of development so we’re in for a rough couple of months for sure.

Yup, bunch of biotech firms all vying for the first working vaccine.

I was mountain biking with a friend I ski with tonight. We were talking about prospects on an uninterrupted ski season. He felt comfortable that there would be a vaccine this winter.

D1, I think VP1 meant MD as in Doctor of Medicine. Could be wrong though. Either way everyone needs to lay off the company kool aid.

I’ve only heard news that Moderna is on schedule. That’s not to say the others aren’t on schedule, it’s just not publicized.

i’m bearish on all of them. literally all of them. what little evidence we have suggests that sars-cov-2 antibodies don’t confer immunity for long, and that antibodies produced by asymptomatic cases aren’t as potent as symptomatic cases.

i’m not saying don’t try for a vaccine, but we should prepare for the possibility that we live with covid indefinitely and that hopefully over time, we develop treatments for it that can slow the spread and/or mitigate its severity.

will the mrna vaccine trigger a memory immune cell response? will any of them? how can we know they trigger antibodies, but not a memory immune cell response?

Happy Wednesday!!!!

I’m currently a Recruitment Consultant at an RPO with 4.5 YOE in Toronto. I received a salary raise last year. Recently I had another conversation with my manager for a comp raise. They was able to speak with their higher ups. Unfortunately, I got to know that they wouldn’t be able to increase my pay because of the economy. I’ve been working on heavy req loads and multi projects. But they are signing me up for a leadership program with a potential raise next year. Thoughts?

Please help me decide which company I should join from the below options:
1. CVENT - Analyst - CTC 9.6 LPA
2. METLIFE - Consultant - Analytics - CTC 10.3 LPA

Cctc: 7-8 lpa

Please if someone know about both companies, let me know about wlb and learning.

Thanks in advance

Post-MBA, 5 weeks into consulting and I hate the weekends. It means I’m one week deeper in the job, and therefore performing another week lower than the level I’m expected to perform at. I have fucked up so much (led a disastrous client meeting, mistakes, slow to answer Qs, etc). My boss is picking up that this isn’t a “new” issue, its a me issue. I try my best to improve but I still feel so anxious, to the point that I started crying at my desk. What do I do? Anyone here quit within a month?
