Question for senior tax managers, tax directors, and higher in public accounting. Have you seen managers or senior managers in PA hired in tax who you feel know very little for the position, or does this happen only very rarely or never in your opinion?

Stop the imposter syndrome and go for it. You’ll learn on the job and ask for help where necessary

Yes

Yea it happens. You get as much out of your career as you put into it. In PA it is easy to get to the SM level without becoming a technical powerhouse if you are able to leverage the time of SMEs (ask me know I know: Hint - I am one of those SMEs)

Well good! Because I have the years of experience to confidently ask $230,000 or so elsewhere, and can probably do well enough in the interviews to get the job and that salary, but I’m concerned I’ll be exposed. There’s always that risk, I guess

What does it mean? You oversell yourself on the interview?

Hello fellow designers!

I was laid off back in August and I have been trying to get a product/UX/UI job ever since then. With the recession and all of the crazy things that are happening right now it has been even harder.

Is anyone hiring a mid-level Product/UX/UI designer?
I have 3 years of experience as a UX/UI Designer and I am available to start working immediately! (Remote work is preferred since I live in Phoenix, AZ and there are not a lot of tech jobs here)
