Yay. My bro is finishing his residency, when I did the same it never really helped much but still good to network.

Thanks FB fam! EY anything else that might help? I was hoping to connect them and maybe they can call some of the programs for her.

Also, how did you phrase the email? Any suggestions?

Depends on your relationship with the client. I kept it casual, make it about connecting, learning from your experience, etc. Best of luck to your sister.

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started. However, now I got an email from the hiring manager that hiring for my role has been paused due to the ongoing cost of living crisis. He expects to resume the hiring for the role in Q1 '23 and would resume the process then. So is it the end? Honestly, I don't expect him to come back. But what do you think?
