Intern, you should listen to all the talks. You’re brand new to this.

How is it that literally anyone can call themselves an expert??!! No offense, but not everyone deserves a platform! So over this era of self-proclaimed experts and self-promotion. It’s the blind leading the blind. So many people try to sound legit but they’re not.

I’m not sure what your beef is CD1. Plenty of phonies who literally call themselves “experts” and “leaders” are on LinkedIn. This ain’t it. Unless I’m missing something, OP is hosting an ACD for BBDO to talk about their video project. Unless you don’t think they’d be an expert on their own personal project?

No, thanks. There are only so many talks i can listen to about how it's all going to pan out.

Hi fishes,

Had an interview with Hexaware and 3 days back HR1 called me and said she will send the offer letter next week. 2 days back HR2 called me and said a client interview is scheduled for you and I attended that. Now if I fail to clear the client interview round, will I not receive the offer letter that is promised by the HR1?

Every time I start a new project, I just look forward to the roll off date. It’s just so sad how I never find any of my projects exciting or fulfilling. I’ve been looking for a new job outside of consulting for years but haven’t landed anything. I just feel mediocre at best not knowing how to even do my own job since the requirement changes all the time.

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.
