Question: what made your resume stand out during your application process which eventually landed you the interview? Skills? hobbies? volunteer work? Target school? GPA?

I have worked as data engineer in service based companies and mostly worked on informatica and IBM datastage , SQL, Teradata currently doing trainings on python and GCP. I need guidance on how/where to prepare for typical data engineering profile to crack interviews in Faang/Maang or other good product based companies.
Main problem is I can learn many things but due to lack of hands on experience in the Cloud technologies
Yoe: 7 years
Skills : ETL, DWH and sql (need to master) , unix , teradata

Is the hiring back on for FAANG? For early careers 1.5 YOE.

Has anyone recently interviewing with Boeing or have joined recently? Please comment need to know about the interview process.

How long they take after project manager round?

(5 yrs Full stack)

Once you’ve applied via referral link to a position, does it keep you in a referral pool or do you need to constantly get a new referral link if you apply to another role say 4 months later? Curious since they only last 30 days and i feel bad asking for a link a 3rd time now…..

How long do offers vs rejections take post interview ?

Hi Fishes,
Can anyone tell me about EY FT-GBS ? What kind of work they do and what should I expect in the interviews?
TIA

Senior Manager Retail at Apple anyone?
Wondering what a SM would do in retail, by exiting from consulting.
Got interview next week.

Just got another rejection... Is exiting to FAANG or MB really this hard? Trying to go tech.. or mbb, but not getting anywhere. I have 2 masters (mba, ms) from top schools, been in consulting for over 10 years, I am confident that I know my stuff well..but still I keep getting rejected. Interviewed with Google, Amazon, Cisco, McKinsey, and a few others and every-time there is something that is not a match... are the hiring managers looking for like 100% match? That will never happen!!!

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing. Had a very successful interview with Amazon but recruiter is working hard trying to place me and said there’s no knowing how long to find a team. Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?

If Joe can’t even do an unscripted interview or event, how can we expect him to run the country? Guess what, the world doesn’t follow a neatly orchestrated script, and bringing a teleprompter into meetings is generally frowned upon.

What are some questions you could expect when interviewing for an AE position? Trying to nail this interview tomorrow, so any advice/tips are welcome. Thanks!

Currently interviewing for a nontechnical role (final round is getting scheduled rn) and I see there’s a new job posting for a different role that I might be more excited by, for the same/associated team. What do I do?? Email my recruiter saying I want to be considered? Apply? How does going for two roles work? The referral from the original job I’m interviewing for has expired fwiw.

Currently at Meta (working as a Program Manager) and considering accepting a role with Disney Streaming to support the scaling of Disney+. My dream however is to eventually work at Google. Would my application be considered more interesting coming straight from Meta or would diversified experience with Meta and Disney+ be better? Would love to hear perspectives on this! Thanks.

Do HRs actually send you a notification if you are rejected in the hiring process or do they just ignore your profile without any rely. Let’s see which percentage is more more!

Having another phone interview with the same Amazon person again. Not sure what to make of it.

Would love to get your advice, and hacks for life in the US. I’m also looking for internship opportunities for Fall 2023, so any leads would be appreciated. Thanks!

This diversity thing is almost a joke....seriously. A lady says her goal is to focus on promoting women and she is celebrated. What if a man said the same thing regarding men....? where is fairness?

Hi WBS (watch bowl savants), I’d like to start a dialogue on how we can effectively use this forum for buying and selling.

Or if you’d prefer we keep this sales free.

How do you manage and track all your investments? E.g., stocks, mutual funds, PPF, PF, gold etc.? Do you use an Excel sheet or some app?

Thoughts on Martin as it is now?

Good lord, how’d he survive that?

Is it possible to sell and transfer my bike to the buyer without physical RC? I have a copy from DigiLocker.

Background story: it was a newly purchased second hand bike, before receiving the RC COVID started and I returned to my hometown. So never received it and I’m sure the RTO is not going to handover me the RC easily.

Hi guys, I joined care ratings about 5 months back. However I had been asked to move from Research to ratings due to high work load.
However now the company is asking me to move back to research. It has been 5 months and I have been trying to adapt to this company. I feel like quitting this job already. It is frustrating. Any recommendations??

I am a new associate (1 month in mid-tier firm) and I struggle to get work to fill up the whole day. In honest time, i get about 3-5 billable hours a day. Am I going to get in trouble or fired over this?? I am putting my best efforts when I do get work and I ask for work sometimes. At this point I feel like I am being annoying too…
