I realize it may vary by company, but does putting a referrers work email (with their knowledge and permission) on the relevant portion of the job application help increase the chances that your application is seen?

Usually it's the part of the application where it asks how you heard about the position and if you select the "company X employee" option, it will ask for their company email.

I got a call for a Java position. I told them I do not develop in Java. I do JavaScript with React. He says “oh yes, that is what the client wants”. So I sent my resume. When he sent the confirmation email it stated Angular/Java. I told him that I don’t have much Java skills. He then sent this (pic) as a response. 🤔🤔🤔
When I spoke to the client she had no idea why the recruiter added angular react as it was just a Java developer position, Completely wasted so much time

Here, I am holding on to some money for my parents in a savings account in India. They don’t exactly have the best relationship with money so I am doing this so that they don’t burn through everything in a month. Do I have to worry about taxes for this money? It’s their retirement savings.

Hi everyone, I am getting married soon and my family has told me that I cannot do a first look with the bride and can only see her after the baraat is over and the wedding is about to begin. There’s no religious or cultural reasoning that they provided but I wanted to see if this is normal. We’re both Hindu for reference. As this has thrown off our plans, I wanted to see if this is normal / not unheard of. Can you share your thoughts? Thanks in advance

After reading the discussions on this bowl for some time, there's something I want to share. There's a lot of criticism of Modi, Indian govt, Hindu Nationalism etc here. A lot of it is for good reason.

If like me you get defensive about these, tell yourself that (most) of it isnt anti-India, or hatred for India. It feels that way since our idea of India has become liked to 'Hindu'. Most are anti-Modi precisely because they love India. Just something that helps me think more rationally. Peace.
