So, about that much hyped new year hiring spree. All I’ve seen is radio silence from recruiters and empty job boards for mid-level art directors. Any hope it’s just a late start this year?

Hi fishes,

Is there any referral opportunity available for the Data Engineer role with EY.

YOE: 4 years

Tech Stack: Python, PySpark, AWS, SQL, Hadoop

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?

Hello Guys, I got laid of couple for weeks ago and I am in H1B visa. I am urgently looking for a job in Procurement/Sourcing/Commodity management in supply chain. I have 6 years of experience in total. Please do let me know if you can refer me. Based on your company I will find the job and apply through the referral system.

Looking for referrals for a Technical Sales Executive position that is Remote (USA), possibly in the industrial sector. Last year I made $109k at AT&T so I'm hoping to at least stay in the same ball park but want a change. I have lots of experience selling IT/telecom, but I also have a Mechanical Engineering background so I'm a good fit for a wide range of technical sales. I have been thinking a role in the industrial sector with a longer sales cycle may be a good fit, can travel up to 25%

Any opening for marketing? I have 10 years of experience in marketing strategy & implementation. My precious firms include law firms and a public company. Any recommendations/referrals are greatly appreciated.

New fish looking for career guidance.

I'm a corporate recruiter with 3 years of experience. Finishing my degree in HRM 5/2022. I'm thinking of getting my SHRM -CP shortly after graduation.

I'm not sure of where to go after that, but I doubt I will stick with recruiting or my current firm.

Has anyone here started off in recruiting and branched out to other HR functions? Do you like your new role? Do you wish you stuck with recruiting?

I'm 32 and looking to make a career change. Previously I've been in sales, sales QA and some analyst position. I want to transition into learning programming and decided the best roadmap for me would be to learn Salesforce, land an entry level admin job and develop my skills over time to transition into programming.

How realistic is it to go from no computer science degree, to getting Salesforce certs and an admin role?

I heard from my head that there is a lot of slowdown in VW Germany... There is Hiring freeze, level freeze and all ... And soon that will spillover to india. So be prepared for very less hikes in coming cycle :( Also automotive sector in general is struggling with tesla laying off 10% workforce recently. Maybe time to make a move? What do you say fishes?

Hi - I have an upcoming conversation with BCG Partner next week. I had reached out to her to understand experienced hire opportunities. What can I expect during this call? My goal is to get an interview.

Re-invited to interview at BCG but also want to cast a wide net and apply for Mck and Bain. However got rejected last year this time at the resume screen stage. I’ve changed firms since I last applied (to a well known boutique) - is this sufficient or am I still frozen?

Does Bain and BCG have an implementation arm similar to McKinsey Implementation?

We’re in such a vicious business. You give your heart & soul to an agency, a client, a brand. Then the wind changes & you’re laid off, reassigned, chewed up, spit out, on to the next. I’m tired.
