Any recruiters tired of killing it for your clients - and killing yourself to support them while reporting in to failed recruiters who have been put into leadership roles? With very little talent or advice for your career other than keep going to make them look good while they work on silly process projects? Adding nothing to talent acquisition or client relations? Frustrating

Thoughts: Managers and senior managers should intervene when project folks starts working more than 8 hours. It's sad that initially everybody talks about 8 hours work goal but employee forced or end up working more than 10 hours. Company is not asking you to work more than 8 hours, it's the pressure from peers and seniors and managers who do "a gentle request" to finish a task asap.
Also managers, Please teach new techies to hold the horses and not put there peer in pressure.

JPMorgan Chase folks, how long does it take after accepting the offer/contract to getting contacted by the premployment screening team ? I have been waiting for a week now but I was told it is triggered automatically after 24hrs to 48 business hours after the acceptance.

Folks at EY who've applied for GC recently. I joined EY in June, so about 6 months in. I understand there is a 1 year wait on H1B before starting GC process. But have there been cases when this has started faster for new hires? I'm thinking of requesting in the new year by first talking to practice lead. Added incentive is SO is in her third try in 2021 and in case doesn't get picked, would want to keep the H4-EAD option open as soon as possible.

I got an offer to be on the advisory board for a company in exchange for equity, no cash pay. If I accept will I be violating my L1 visa guidelines? I will still need a clearance from Deloitte in terms of independence and that’s a whole different animal. TIA!

Anyone else starting to put their foot down with recruiters or am I late to the party🤣? They reach out for an opportunity without client or comp info, and then ask you to run through your resume. Buddy, you reached out to me 🤣

I have an offer from McKinsey, I’m very excited about the work that they do. However, I’m concerned about a potential exit to PE (my ultimate goal). After searching across KKR, Carlyle and Apollo, the McKinsey presence is extremely low…

Does anyone feel terrified about the prospect of being a Partner as a woman, especially if/when you have a family? Single right now and thinking of having a baby on my own.

I think the best way to do this would be a check but I don’t have a checkbook and I don’t want to order one just for this… any suggestions? Can I just put cash in the mail? I wanted to avoid donating online because I wanted to send the money to a specific office.

Hi ladies, I have been struggling lately to balance three important spheres in my life: 1) work, 2) personal life, 3) romantic partnership. I am more independent than my partner, and I can’t stay sane without (2) aka some time for me to be independent and alone. However, my partner needs less alone time and is happiest when we spend together time (cont.)

Ladies I would like your opinion: Is it controlling to ask SO not to hang out with friends every weekend during COVID if he wants to see me? For some background, we live separately and previously have been the only people we’ve each been meeting since lockdown. We live in multigenerational homes, so not just ourselves to consider. As he’s out with friends in a non socially distanced manner, I ask that we wait two weeks. One week in, he meets the same friends again, and next week, again. Cont...

Hi! Have any of you hired a personal trainer to help with fitness routines during the week?

Currently dating someone for the second time and things seem very stable and progressing. However, we finally had the finance conversation and just realized he makes a lot less than I do and has 13k in credit card debt. I am really into this person and he has made some adjustments that I have noticed that will help him reduce expenses but I’m just afraid i’m blinde sighted by how much I like him and ignoring a huge red flag that could be an issue in the future.
