Salam! 2 questions below:

1) As someone trying to get fast tracked for promotion IA, should I push to get on a project during Ramadan OR spend my time on firm building in Ramadan and try to get staffed afterwards? Would prefer the second option so long as it doesn’t impact promotion.

2) if the reco is to max utilization and be staffed during Ramadan, any advice for balancing fasting + long working hours?

I didn’t know these were options lol. Interested to hear how people reply.

I didn’t think staffing is a choice for people.

That’s true. I guess one implication of being on the beach is I can’t be picky about what project I work on next... hopefully ppl can share savvy tips to get the best of both worlds :)

Ramadan is one of the best months for working as long as you don’t work outside or do hard labor. My discipline is usually at its highest during that month and I have a clockwork like routine. Don’t pass up the chance to leverage the holy month in your career as well by putting off a project.

Hi Fishes, I need your advice!

I joined CG 6 months back and was on training for 3-4 months for Dynamics CRM, completing multiple MS certifications. Post that I was mapped to an account for the project & was under shadow.

After shadow completed it seems like there's no project openings in the account for which I was selected. And now management wants me to go for other certs.

Please help me know whom can I approach & ask for project openings/tagging. I'm worried as it's already been 6 months!
