So, anyone been noticing the ongoing trend in job application requirements?
Some want a free intern and some want a university degree for pretty much the same job...Got way worse when c*vid hit and so many started looking for freelance, remote positions.

How do you deal with an HR that ghosts you after 3 interviews that went really well? I landed an offer at Deloitte as a sr. consultant, and then negotiated for a managerial role. I was told all interviewers were really happy with me so she would be glad to arrange a reevaluation for the new role(I was interviewed by 2 Sr. Managers & an MD for Sr. Consultant role and will have to take another round with a partner for the managerial position). I tried following up thrice after, no response.

I am mainly working with shops in the States as a non-native speaker and I am constantly worried about my ability to communicate (in any professional occasion but mostly in meetings).

How do you feel as a native speaker when you meet non-natives? Should they be worried, or, they doing ok?
