F. Blazer over no-collar blouse. Interviewers have shown up in t-shirts and baseball caps, which is fine by me 😂

Polo shirt and styled hair (instead of a baseball cap, which is what I usually wear day-to-day)

Polo shirt or button up suit shirt and jeans. No hat. Sweater also acceptable in cold months

For google I wore a shirt with no tie.

Fun button up (gingham, etc) and pajama shorts, sans socks.

Depends what you’re interviewing for. For me it’s finance/consulting for finance so suit & tie

U sound like a nerd. There really is no need for suit and tie.

You all wear cloths to interviews?

Hmmm 🤔

I have accepted an offer for the role of Director of Data Science & Analytics and I'll be working with old colleagues. I am very excited.

I'm really struggling for how to respond. If I were not leaving it is absolutely a meeting I should be at. I don't want to respond with a lie. Any dvice on how to respond?

I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.

I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.

This is twice now in back to back weeks my boss has asked me where the disconnect was in our communications because I didn’t deliver on what “was asked”, even though I know damn well what was asked and what was done were the same thing. I’m not sure if he’s changing the meaning or isn’t communicating what he’s envisioning or what but it’s embarrassing to be called out like that, and to have people think you’re the dumb 23 year old.

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
