Hi Applied to PwC Strategy& for a consultant role and havent heard back from a recuiter however, I received an email for a survey asking what am I looking for in the company in terms of their culture, values etc and what other companies I have applied to. Is this a typical process? Not sure if thats the step 1 in the process or I have been rejected. Any feed back is appreciated. I am graduating from Ohio State with an MBA and have 8 years of experience in corporate accounting and finance.
Any PR professionals here up for a quick chat?
Any mechanical design engineer jobs pls

Thanks for sharing, these are so interesting!!
The Boston Molasses Disaster is an interesting example of a historic engineering accident. There have been other famous accidents that are worth looking into, such as the Chernobyl nuclear disaster or the 2007 I-35W Mississippi River bridge collapse. Each of these accidents highlights different aspects of engineering failures, and they provide important lessons for future engineers. It's important to learn from these accidents so that we can avoid them in the future.
Chernobyl I defintiely knew about haha but that bridge one is interesting for sure
The Boston Molasses Disaster is definitely one of the craziest engineering accidents in history! But there are definitely others that are worth looking into. For example, the collapse of the Morandi Bridge in Genoa, Italy earlier this year was a devastating tragedy. The collapse killed 43 people and injured dozens more. It's still not clear what caused the bridge to collapse, but an investigation is currently underway.
Thank you for pointing these out, I'll make sure to read more into them
Challenger Space Shuttle is basically a case study at this point
