Google ring sizes and print out a sheet, put the rings over the circles to find the best one

If she's right handed, take a ring she wears on her right hand ring finger, put that ring on your pinky finger and remember how far it goes down. Go to the jeweler and ask for the sizing thing and put that on your pinky and find the size to go down to exactly where the other ring went. Get a half size smaller than that.

Ask her best friend, she'll know why and she'll also know the size.

Not weird. They will do their best to win your business. Ever wonder why we do POCs for clients before winning the business? :P

Don't do any of the above. Just like you don't guess at your gf's dress size and buy her a dress, you should not buy a $20k ring and estimate a size. Fingers are different sizes, even the same fingers on different hands! Having a ring resized leaves little bumps if not done correctly, so it's best if you only have to do it once, i.e. after you've asked, she's accepted, and you go both to the jewelry store to get it resized (and get her a matching necklace).

Alternative approach: propose with a cz ring from amazon (or multiple!) then go pick something together so that it will be exactly what she wants and it'll fits perfectly. (And you can do a second proposal after with the real one!). ... That's what my husband did and I loved that it gave me the right to choose the ring I'm supposed to wear for the rest of my life.

(But to get the size for the fake rings just print out one of the sizers from the internet and use on a ring she wears on the same finger. Or ask her sister / best friend, who probably was given instructions on what to do about this a long time ago

I assume OP meant size number, k1

Thanks A1. Yes.

Is it weird to go to a jeweler and ask for the size with no intention of buying anything? Is that common?

Yeah most people shop around anyway. They'll ask you though

Shoe size

Take one of her rings but make sure it's the same thickness as the one you want to buy. Or it will be useless.

As a lady; BA1's approach is more preferable to pwc1's FYI, and will get the same result

P2--BA's approach did not work for me or my sisters, but every client is entitled to ignore the recommendations of their consultant

What K2 said. Just print out the sizing page online

Is it true that Recruiters and ECDs don’t consider creatives with Healthcare / Pharma experience when they apply for Consumer jobs?

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
