Currently a JR PM at an ad agency in NYC. Working on social media for my client. Really don't enjoy it. Previous experience is in experiential marketing and really loved that because I knew humans would interact, touch, and feel the things I helped create.
Not attached to advertising, I crave work that makes me think critically and isn't redundant. I am a huge people person and love interacting with people. I am wondering if anyone has career paths or style of work that is more inline with me 🙂

Hi fishes,

I have completed the PDM on 27th September and submitted my Back Ground Verification form on 5th October.
Since then there is no response from HR end regarding offer letter, try to connect her through mail and call multiple times.

1. How much time IBM take to release offer letter? It is almost a month after having PDM round

2. Is there any possibility of not sending offer letter even after initiation of BGV process ? Should i look outside as 25 days passed already.

Does any of my Hr folks also manage the safety department or is it included in your job duties and responsibilities? I was instructed to get OSHA 10 and 30 certified. So I did this. I possess my BA in Criminal justice, along with two associates degrees. Included is about 4 years experience in HR. I am younger, at age 25. I’m conflicted about where im supposed to be at in salary. The excuse here seems to be that I’m “too young,” however, someone else had said “im young in my career.”

In 4 days, I will be completing 60 days of my lay-off from Deloitte. But, I am not at all worried, and taking time to ensure I get on right team/opportunity, which takes my career ahead.

Why can I afford to to so? Coz, I am not on stupid H1B, and just became Canadian citizen 2 months before this pandemic started. Seems like all those 7 years of wait ( i used to call it jail term here due to limited opportunities) was totally worth it in terms of stability it brings.

Happy Canada Day!

Stupid question. In the H&S salary report, are the splits by size of the fund based on the fund itself or the PE firm? For example, Blackstone has 800b+ aum but any specific fund within Blackstone manages something less like let’s say it’s a $30b fund or a new fund that’s only raised $2b so far? Would the salary report be based on the company level aum or the specific fund (even if it’s a brand new fund that hasn’t raised much within a larger firm)? My guess is the latter or somewhere between.
