The whole interview was about how much money I could make for them. They didn't seem to care about my actual trading skills. Is that how it is at most firms?

Making money and trading skills tend to be correlated, no?

lmao. Bruh. Is that not the job? Literally. No one gives AF about “skills” - trading skills = make money.

Lol what? How do you measure trading skill??

What are your actual trading skills? Does it make money? I have no formal education in trading or that subject but I make money trading with 0 skills. If a company is hiring you, it’s because of your ability to generate revenue. Who gives half a crap about what skills you use. If burning incense and praying works for you and you win, then do that!

Making a lot of money relative to the average but feeling poor? Median after-tax income was ~$55,000 in 1981 and was ~$73,000 in 2020. Using a Bank of Canada inflation calculator $55,000 in 1981 is equivalent to ~$165,000 today, which would put someone in the top 10% of earners today. But in 1981 the median family had that extra money. Who can I blame?

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!
